Ann the Awesome

Ann was a great guide for my family of four, including 2 teens. She shared history, culture, and great food with us during our 3 hour tour together. She even brought us some delicious chocolate from a favorite local shop, and helped us find a holiday ornament too. Highly recommend touring with Ann!
