Tour was good. We appreciated that the guide walked us around to the various towers/rooms and gave informative history. That said, however, our guide was often offensive, often displaying extreme dislike for men and children. She managed to offend several teachers who were there with their classroom children with her comments, including lining them up on the curb execution style.
