A lovely afternoon walk with Jim and our new walking family! A super fun, lighthearted and informative walk with our amazing guide! Thank you Jim for getting everyone involved and for all the light hearted chatter between stops. Pace was easy to keep up with (even for my family members with sore hips and knees!) and everything pointed out and mentioned was amazing to hear! We all learnt so much in a short space on time.

Fred was a very friendly man. Due to traffic we arrived a few minutes late and he'd already arranged for another guide to wait for us and take us to catch him up, not that this was needed in the end. It was a lovely tour of the city, some of which we would never have seen had we not been with Fred. The Cathedral was shut so we were refunded part of the money. It's well worth an hour and a half to see the city with an experienced tour guide.

The whole tour was informative and the guide was knowledgeable and engaging. Phil happily answered all our questions. The pace was appropriate for the group. When Phil ended the tour, we were shocked to see it had been two hours; we were so absorbed in the experience it flew by!
