Angela – United States

It was perfect for my teenagers to learn something and be together as a family!

J
Judith – United States

The guide was extremely knowledgeable. My husband is a history buff and the guide answered all of his questions. The wagon and horses were well taken care of. The driver was very careful as we were often on busy streets. A great experience.
