Informative and entertaining tour
The tour was informative. Our guide was very friendly and could tell interesting stories. Through the tour, we were able to get to know the downtown area a bit, so that we could navigate well on our own afterward.

A stop on the road worth it
From the outside the cathedral looks huge but when you go home it looks smaller but so beautiful that you are speechless. I recommend the guided tour that allows you to go upstairs. Do not miss the treasure that is also magnificent, the town hall and the center Charlemagne
