Our guide was wonderful. She had an incredible amount of knowledge and passion for the area & we were able to see the well-known things as well as have an insight into the culture before WWII when the town was more isolated. The only thing that would have made it better was a bit more time to move around on our own, we only had 20 min to see a few things by ourselves.
