If only history at school had been this engaging! We really enjoyed the tour. Plenty of interesting material even if you already know a bit about Deal's history.

George was great. Full of passion and knowledge about his local home town. The company was amazing and I have to say that it was the highlight of my first time visit to Deal. I cannot recommend this tour enough.

What a fantastic experience this has been. We did a smugglers tour and not only learnt so much but gained a fantastic appreciation of bygone Deal. The guide was excellent and was dressed as an admiral which added to the experience. Highly recommend and a real bargain at only £8 when most walking tours are more.

We had a brilliant tour with George who powered through 24 Celsius heat in full uniform to deliver us a fun and informative history walk. It helped us to appreciate our trip to Deal a lot more. Can't wait to recommend to family and friends.
