Intermediate English listening exercise ยท Hotels & Accommodation
Transcript
Guest: Good morning. We have one day in the city. What do you recommend? Concierge: For first-time visitors, I suggest starting at the Old Town Square. It is about a fifteen-minute walk from here or a five-minute taxi ride. Guest: What is there to see? Concierge: The square has beautiful medieval architecture, street performers, and the famous astronomical clock. From there you can walk along the river to the national museum, which takes about twenty minutes. Guest: What about lunch? Any good restaurants nearby? Concierge: I would recommend La Terrazza on Oak Street. It has wonderful local cuisine at reasonable prices. Would you like me to make a reservation? Guest: Yes, please. For two people around one PM. Concierge: Done. After lunch, you could visit the botanical gardens. They are stunning this time of year. I can also arrange a sunset river cruise for this evening if you are interested. Guest: That sounds amazing. Please book that too.
