Excellent guide

Aldo was an excellent guide!!! He was very engaging, funny and knowledgeable. It was our second day in the city but the day we arrived rained all they long so we didn’t get out much. Thanks Aldo for a great tour!!!!!

Very informative tour with Aldo

We enjoyed the tour and found it highly informative. Aldo shared a good balance of history, anecdotes, culture and current day. He is approachable, warm and knowledgeable. The 1 hr 45 minute length is perfect.

Aldo was great!

My husband and I did the Historic Walking Tour with Aldo today, and we really enjoyed it! Aldo was knowledgeable, interesting, and shared some great tips and recommendations for things to do after the tour. You can tip him at the end with either cash or a credit card. We would definitely recommend both Aldo and the tour!
