The tour was great and Phil was a really good guide. He explained the history of the places we visited, and told the stories with humour and expert knowledge. We love doing a walking tour when we visit a new city, and this one certainly met our expectations.

Our tour with Louise was excellent. We saw the highlights of the city at a relaxed pace. We learned so much. Very worthwhile!!
