The tour and guide was great but didn’t expect the car to be sooo little with no AC and no rear door to get in and out.

So unique and very interesting way to explore this former Communist city and learn the history and changes. You're also travelling in a very interesting tourist attraction so be prepared to draw attention for tourists and locals!
