Solid time out in the burg and enjoying history with beautiful weather!
★★★★★
It was a fun experience! Got to see a lot of new places. I would recommend but definitely during the day rather than the night.

It was awesome. I enjoyed it had some challenges related to surroundings and others just to solve some enigmas. Recommend it.
