Le guide est excellent dans son domaine, bravo !
La visite en elle-même maintenant est assez limitée, on s'attendait peut-être à un trajet plus conséquent, une vraie marche dans le ville. Or, on reste sur un secteur très réduit. Déception sur la dégustation, un goûter serait le bienvenu.

Bonjour, cela nous fait plaisir de savoir que vous avez apprécié la prestation du guide. Pour le parcours, le but étant de découvrir le cœur de ville historique, le périmètre se limite à ce secteur. Et, pour la pause gourmande, effectivement il s'agit bien d'une dégustation de spécialité locale et non d'un goûter. Mais nous prenons en compte votre remarque et vous remercions pour votre avis.
