We took a half day tour with Nick on July 4, 2022. We had a group of 11 , half teens , half older. We did not want to navigate on our own on a holiday and am so glad I chose Nick. His prices were more than fair, he communicated well with me prior to the trip, and kept on schedule. I liked his sense of humor too. He is very knowledgeable and kept the tour interesting for our mixed age group. The only thing I would do differently, is to pay extra to be able to go inside some of the buildings that were talked about. That is on me, not Nick, as I booked this tour just a couple of weeks in advance of a major holiday. I would recommend and use Nick Cvetkovic Tours in the future.
