Our tour guide was a theatre major and could project his voice well even on a crowded day. We liked that he shared some more subjective opinions about the buildings we saw and the history and not just facts and figures. Much more of a tour than we were expecting!

We were traveling with someone who has a hearing impairment. Our guide was so kind to wait for the noise of big trucks to pass and to speak clearly and slowly. Her enthusiasm was clearly evident and she did a great job. We all learned so much.
