At first glance this city feels a little grungy, but it really grows on you the more you explore and the higher up you get on the hillsides. The whole city is bursting with color and beautiful street art. Alex really shows you the highlights of what makes this such a special city, and you even get to go down a slide and ride a funicular up the hillside. 100% recommend this tour.”
