Hi there folks,
We are going to try CoT with only two players and the GM, talked to our GM he´s going to modify some parts of the story to be able to do it with only two people, we really dont try to complicate things with going mythic, gestalt or runing two players each.
What classes combo do you guys think will be a good party for this AP? Any sugestions will be appreciated becaus this is our second AP.

Checking out the '1 class party' thread that is going on would give you some good tips. Most of the suggestions arethere because they are built to be extremely versatile, and they can usually work well being half the party.
So then, since the name of the AP alone tells me that at least a few skill checks are going to be important, and you only have 2 players, then a ton of skill points are going to be important. That means the 6+ classes are vital.
Luckily, those are also the classes with a ton of tricks that allow ranged or melee combat, as well as some degree of spells (which includes healing, buffing, and sometimes summoning).
Ranger and hunter immediately come to mind, since they have animal companions, which means more bodies on the field. Inquisitor are always good. Bard...hmmm... hard to say actually, since their performance is a multiplier for the party, and tends to be better with more people (of course, you could go with luck based goodness of archaeologist for bonuses to attack, damage, saves, and skills)
Personally, I am currently in love with hunter due to its archetypes. Feral hunters get a druid's wildshape, while Primal Companion hunters can turn their animal companion into an eidolon (basically) for minutes per day (ie- your wolf suddenly grows claws and wings, and then starts pouncing). Or they can give themselves all those sweet evolutions if their companion is dead (So they are a balanced, watered down synthesist; about on par with inquisitor in terms of attack with that, it seems)

Beacaus of the urban scenario was building a Sanctified Slayer / Heretic Inquisitor.
i dont know if this can be a really good partner to a Ranger or how to make a good combo.
Ranger/Bard
Palladin / Inquisitor
Palladin / Ranger
Feral Hunters seems very good but i dont know if will be better with the animal companion for the extra bodies in battles.
In that AP i dont know how the hellknights will react to animal companions
