Our guide was awesome! This tour truly is RAIN OR SHINE! So don't be like me and show up without an umbrella! I was traveling in and didn't bring one with me in my luggage thinking I'd get lucky, but there was an absolute DOWNPOUR that began right as the tour began. Fortunately for me, another tour-goer offered me her waterproof jacket (and she used her own umbrella). Such kindness! That allowed me to continue with the tour, despite our soggy feet, I learned so much and really enjoyed seeing that part of town!
