“The guide was friendly and funny. We were a bit surprised by the change of itinerary, we didn’t see the caves, nor the lighthouse which were one of the main reasons to book. The change was caused by the ferry schedule, the 19:00 return ferry was out for repairs so the entire visit was shortened in order to catch the 17:00. Other than that, good option to get an ideea on the city vibe. Lunch restaurant was lovely and they even cooked separately for me, which I highly appreciated.”
