I enjoyed this tour, because through the activities I learned a lot of history about the buildings and many places that I had never known before. One of the good places for me is vintage the clothes shop, because I can... More

My wife and I joined Meyer and 3 other guests for an early-evening tour of the Lanes. Meyer has a wealth of knowledge and explains the fascinating history of the various lanes and their associated shops, cafes, malls and houses. This tour provides an interesting and, as another reviewer says, quirky, view of the city and its street culture.
