About this tour
This session moves between two viewing platforms above the old town, each offering a different angle over the same rooftops. You see the spires visible from the first platform, then a wider view that takes in the harbour from the second. It is a short, quiet session timed for the calmest hour of the day.
I start with a sound check at the first platform, since it can be breezy, then walk to the second, taking questions at each stop. A short note on what to look for at other times of day follows by message afterwards.
It suits anyone wanting a calm, early look over the city. It also works well as a first session before a longer old town walk.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included
- Internet connection
- Travel to the city

Good to know
