You meet at the fountain where three rivers meet and the city exhales—water arcs high enough to catch the late-afternoon light while a guide sketches the route ahead. The walk threads compact downtown blocks, pocket parks, and glassed-in courtyards so the skyline becomes a moving frame for private conversation.
