David is the best tour guide I’ve ever had

David was AMAZING as a guide!! Really insightful and I learned quite a lot in the tour. I did see a ghost, did not mentioned it, but I saw a ghost in a window! So extra points for actual supernatural activity. Give this man a raise for his wonderful job!!!&
