Meie #1 reisinõuanne

Enne 1. päeva: Broneeri TASUTA jalutuskäik

Tasuta jalutuskäigud. Jah, tõesti tasuta. Kaarti ei ole vaja. Püüniseid pole.

Kohalik giid viib sind 2-3 tunniks ringi, hõlmates kõiki peamisi vaatamisväärsusi ja peidetud pärleid. See on 100% jootraha põhine. Giidid teenivad ainult seda, mida sa neile lõpus annad, seega annavad nad alati parima. Kirglik jutustamine, siseringi nõuanded, restoranisoovitused, mida internetis ei leia.

Tee seda esimesel päeval. Sa saad orienteeruda, õpid ajaloo ja saad isiklikke soovitusi kohalikult ülejäänud viibimiseks.
