I loved that I could book so last minute. I liked the message delivered after booking filled with instructions. I liked that my guide Nick was so knowledgeable & he was a blue badge guide. He explained all parts of the tour so well. I'd definitely recommend this tour to others.

The monument was beautiful and what made it even better, was learning of it's history from Peter, our guide. He is knowledgeable and his wit and humour made the tour even more fun.Bradley
