We took two tours with Rachel. She was very knowledgeable and a great tour guide! Very personable! We also toured with Rory for Jack the Ripper and had a very similar, great experience!

We had not had a good tasting English beer yet. Our Tour guide Mike recommended beers before going into each pub. Each one he recommended was good!

What a fantastic Beer Pub tour. Our guide was well informed and told us interesting stories about the pubs and history of the area as well. His sense of humor and delivery made this such an enjoyable tour. I would do it again in a heartbeat.
