BEFORE YOU GO · CAUTIONARY DETAILS
Distances are short, the standing is long
Two or three hours mostly on your feet on hard ground. Comfortable shoes matter more than fitness.
The route is public space
Markets, lanes and places of worship are where people live and pray. Ask before photographing anyone and cover up where others do.
Cash for the small things
Tea, a fritter, an entry ticket. Card acceptance in old quarters is patchy at best.
Ask what the group size will be
A walking tour of six and one of thirty are different products at the same price. It is a fair question.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Hotels were clean and central, which saved a lot of time. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude. Would send friends their way.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. Good value for what's included.

Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. Meals were good throughout and the vegetarian options weren't an afterthought. Good value for what's included.

Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Hotels were clean and central, which saved a lot of time. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for.

Questions people ask

Yes. Tickets are timed, capped and sell out weeks ahead in summer, and the tour itself is thirty-five minutes. Turning up hoping for a slot fails from May to September.
