Should be 1.5-2 hours. Fortress and walled city interesting. Tour guide knowledgeable. Would not repeat as a 3-4 hour tour; and would pay 1/2 for the shoeter version
Good morning, we have spoken with your guide and she noted that you didn't want to do 4 hours. Well, yes, we were already doing the tour and about two and a half hours had passed when they suddenly told me that they needed to go back to the ship. I wanted to show them the necropolis up close and everything, but they said, "We have the ship at I don't know what time, and I think we'd better head back." I thought that maybe they were very tired. They hadn’t wanted to stop at any point, even though I told them, “If you’d like, we can take a break.” But they said, “No, no, no, we can do everything.” My overall impression was good. It could also have been because of the time of day—it was very hot as well. In the end, they seemed very happy; they even left me a tip. From my perspective, everything went very well. We always strive to give you the best of the city. IT is a private tour and the price for 2 hours is not half the price. We are sorry you thought it was too long. There is a lot to visit in Ibiza and we like to recommend a 4 hour tour.
