Very knowledgeable guide. She knew the contours of the city well and addressed my questions. Just wish more of Birmingham was open to tourists. There is an interesting history of the city that remains untold. Many of the sites remain closed or have very limited hours.

Our family had a great tour of the City Centre by tour guide Mary M. She was really knowledgeable about the area and tailored the tour to our group's interests. We started at the City Library then learned about the canals in Brindley Place. Went up to the park and into St Philip's Cathedral and Mary told us about Chinatown. It was a perfect intro to the City and helped us decide what to explore further later on during our visit.
