SoloVerified bookingFeb 20265/5The tour guide, Freda, was delightful. She treated everyone with respect and provided a nice tour for our group. We were mostly on our feet but there were also times when we could sit. The Opera House itself is an amazing structure. This tour is well worth the time and money. Also, the free meal was a bonus. We ate ours before the tour to avoid the dinner rush.SSandra J
