Hiking with a guide

Guided city walk

A city walk with a guide is the way to really get to know a city. Instead of just walking around looking at buildings and monuments without context, a guide tells you about the rich history and compelling stories that make a city unique.

Imagine this: you are walking down a street and see an old building. You wonder exactly what it is. The guide walking beside you tells you all about it. Who lived there? What happened there? What does this building mean to the city and its people? A guided city walk changes your perspective and makes your visit to a city that much richer.
