What's included

Customer reviews, review summary.

It was just amazing. Honestly, I was not expecting it to be so good. Starting with staff, very helpful. The tour itself tries to show us the main attractions to watch by night. It keeps us well entertained and tells us a bit of each building story.

Went with my teens and parents, staff were friendly and the ride was pleasant. Something different to appreciate our beautiful country as we pass by the buildings daily without having a second look, last night was truly eye opening

Very nice tour at night, very friendly and curious staff

Fantastic night out with the extended family - being local it was refreshing to see our city from a tourist's perspective. And great booking experience with Pelago!
