Absolutely incredible experience with Delia as our tour guide! She was informative, knowledgeable, and showed us parts of the city we never could’ve discovered on our own. Everything was perfectly timed—relaxed yet full of amazing sights. She was especially thoughtful with the pace, tailoring the tour to suit my 5-year-old daughter. Couldn’t recommend her more!
