Great for getting our bearings - We had a great time exploring the Underground, aka the RESO! Martin gave us a very informative tour of all the interesting nooks and crannies of this city network! We were thankful to have this overview at the beginning of our trip.

Isabel did a fabulous job... - Isabel did a fabulous job on our underground tour. She was very informative but very funny and made the experience extremely enjoyable. She has a great personality and is a great tour guide. Special thanks to Leslie who accommodated the 8 of us so that we could all go together on the tour.

We took the tour of the Underground and I would completely recommend it - Isabelle was our tour guide and I can’t say enough good things about her. She was knowledgeable, engaging professional, and she even helped us navigate our way on the subway when the tour was over. She went over and above, and if you are lucky enough to have her for your tour your experience will be outstanding.

Easy walk tour - Our tour guide was very nice and knowledgeable. However, and according to the description of the tour, we were expecting more than a barely two mile walk. If you are looking for a slow pace, easy walk with fun fact information about the city and its tunnel system, this is a great tour. But if you’re looking for a more physically demanding and longer walk, this might not be for you.
