This is the hardest review I've ever written. And of all the places I've visited, I've never had a bad tour till now. I wish someone had written this review so I don't have to experience this so I'm writing this in case it helps someone.
The guide, Alina, is a nice lady and genuinely is trying to look out for you but her tour isn't what I signed up for at all.
I had a tight itinerary and thought a one-hour tour would fit better than other longer tours and boy do I regret it.
It's an hour of anti-democracy and young-people-are-falling-for-goverment-propaganda rant. We stopped constantly, and things mentioned are not always in context to where we're stopping, and that's always followed by a rant.
I was SO uncomfortable the entire time and just kept hoping it would end asap. I only realised this is what the entire tour will be halfway through, if I had known sooner, I would just stop the tour and head back myself, which isn't hard as we hardly did much walking, we circled the old town square for an hour. I was also the only one on the tour so it also adds to the awkwardness.
