To make sure everyone has a good experience on our tours, we aim to keep groups small. In our experience, big groups can compromise the tour quality. To be fair to all of our customers, we ask groups of over 8 to reserve a private tour or contact us at our e-mail [email protected], besides that, when large groups are expected we aim to have enough staff to provide the best possible experience.
