Excellent and knowledgeable guide made it a educational and enjoyable tour. Disappointed that cable car and funicular were not operational but good to experience the metro and local buses. Recommended

5 out of 5 stars

the card is very useful for getting around even if in the end we didn't use it much, some museums included in the card are closed on Mondays so we couldn't use it to its full potential.
