Great tour

We had a really good night tour with Dean as our driver. Dean gave a great tour, he was very friendly and had lots of knowledge about the city and the monuments! We spent plenty of time at the monuments for pictures, and Dean showed plenty of other sites as we were driving through the area.

Dean from this company is a rude and unfriendly person

Dean from this company was a total waste of time. Did not reply to emails. RUDE!!!! Total waste of time. We contacted him and did not hear for hours. Then he could not get us on this tour even though we paid. PLEASE DO NOT USE
