Richard (The local partner) from AMIGO was such a knowledgeable and good guy. He told the stories in such and engaging and fun way. I would definitely go back on a guided tour having him.

Our guide (Shirley? sorry, not sure about her name!) was excellent! She was very polite, well informed and she transformed the abbey and made it come alive as she recounted historical stories and details about the abbey's history, the kings, queens and important people who are buried there, it's architectural designs and differences and so much more! It was truly a pleasure to hear her talk about the abbey's history. One could tell that she is passionate about the abbey and its history!
