For a walking tour, comfort is key! We recommend wearing comfortable, breathable clothing and sturdy shoes that are suitable for walking long distances. Opt for weather-appropriate attire—light layers in warm weather, or warm clothing in cooler conditions. Don't forget a hat and sunscreen for sun protection, or an umbrella and rain gear if the forecast calls for showers.

And, of course, bring a water bottle to stay hydrated!
