“Hafa was such a great guide! He gave great tips that helped us get comfortable and confident with the Segway very quickly, and then we were off! Safety was always his top priority and he made sure we knew exactly where to ride at all times. He also told us things about the area that we hadn’t learned on two prior tours, and that was impressive. The castle area and fisherman’s bastion was stunningly beautiful and the private tour made it such a fun way to experience it. We loved this tour and would even happily do it again!! 10/10, thanks Hafa!!”
