Catacombs, Library, Roman Ruins, & the Citadel with Youssef!
Published on Dec, 2024
Youssef was a FABULOUS tour guide! His unlimited knowledge of history & the city enabled him to customize a tour just for us. An overall great experience! Booking the tour & communication prior to the tour was very easy to meet up at the port.
Fantastic guided tour.
Published on Dec, 2024
The tour guide and driver exceptional. Very willing and able to accommodate our needs making it exceptionally enjoyable. The only thing to be aware of is that the port pick up/ drop off location requires a longer walk than we expected.
