“Carla picked us up right on time. What an amazing guide. Full of enthusiasm and great knowledge of her beautiful home city. So many sights she pointed out with historic facts. Gave us loads of hints and tips along the way to help during our stay too. The ride itself was wonderful and you could go open top or hood up if required.
