1. A: Have you taken a tour since you've been here?

B: Yes. I went on one last weekend.

A: What was it like?

B: Well, we didn't see a lot. We mainly went to a lot of shops. I would've preferred to see more of the museums and famous buildings. I'm not really interested in shopping. And the bus they took us in was so old and slow. They should put it in the museum!

A: Really! Did you say anything to the guide about it?

B: Well the problem was, he didn't speak English very well. And he wasn't really very friendly.

A: That's too bad!

B: But we did have a nice lunch on the tour. and the whole tour was very cheap, so it wasn't all bad. But I don't think it was worth the time or the money, even though it was cheap.

2. A: What was your city tour like?

B: Well, we saw lots of interesting places on the tour. I was totally exhausted at the end of it, but I'm really glad I took it. You should try it.

A: Did you go by bus?

B: Yes. we had a nice, comfortable bus, and a very helpful guide. You know how some guides talk all the time. This one didn't. He gave us just enough information, but not too much.

A: Where did they take you for lunch?

B: Oh, some dirty little place near the center of town. I didn't eat much because the food didn't look very good to me.

A: That's too bad.

Was the tour expensive?

B: No. Not at all. It was very reasonable.

3. A: Did you just get back from the tour?

B: Yeah. It was really good. We visited all the places of interest. I'm glad we took it.

A: Did you take a bus or a van?

B: We took a bus. There were only 15 of us in it, so we had lots of room. It was a new clean one, so it was pretty comfortable.

A: Did you have a guide?

B: Oh, yes. She was great. A student, I think. She really knew her stuff.

A: How was lunch?

B: Awful! We just had some fast food along the way.

A: How much was the tour?

B: Well, it was pretty expensive. That was the only problem. $150! I think they should've charged us about $75. But anyway, I think it's definitely worth doing this tour.

4. A: So how was the tour?

B: It was disappointing, actually.

A: That's too bad.

B: Yeah, we didn't get to see very much. It was too short. I wanted to see a lot more.

A: Really?

B: It wasn't very comfortable either. The bus wasn't air conditioned, so it got very hot and stuffy after a while.

A: Uh-huh.

B: Anyway, the guide was very helpful. He gave us some very interesting information and told a lot of jokes, so that was fun. And we had a really good lunch at the seafood restaurant.

A: So was the tour worth it?

B: Well. it was only $35. which is pretty reasonable. But if you want to take a tour. you should try a different tour company.
