An excellent Guide
Ann-Danni-P
, Oct 2020
The young man who took as on the tour was one that we felt lucky to have with us. He had taken the trouble to bring his tablet with him with various photos that helped us to understand what he was telling us. He seemed genuinely interested in what he was telling us and didn’t make us feel rushed at all. Any questions raised were answered Any group he takes should feel them selves very lucky to have him as their guide.
