The driver and guide were very humorous and explained astronomical knowledge very well. Cowan Mountain is actually on the side of the road, very close. Overall, I am satisfied!

What a lovely way to see the city centre! The guides were friendly, funny and very informative. We had the privilege of riding on the oldest Tram, beautiful carriages with old adverts and signs. It was really a spectacular experience.
