I had taken headout tour last winter and really enjoyed it. This tour was not quite so enjoyable. The commentary was not well synced- probably due to traffic/construction delays. Drive was friendly and helpful.

Very informative commentary. The driving was brilliant. Slightly difficult to see things because of the amount of trees in full leaf but otherwise a good experience

    The commentery was excellent. The only thing we could suggest is windscreen wipers on the upstairs front window. It was raining heavily and we could not see out very well.
