Our tour guide was excellent at answering any questions very well and engaged with the whole group brilliantly. The information given has definitely prompted us to want to look into more historical parts of the City and explore more of Birmingham on our next visit. We would highly recommend this walking tour.

5.00The tour was thoroughly enjoyable the only criticism was that it went too quickly. However, that is a sign that a good time was had. Phil was an excellent guide, he was knowledgeable, entertaining with sound communication skills. The walk was at a relaxed pace, but a great deal was packed in. I have been to Birmingham on numerous occasions but I learnt so much about it after the walk. I would heartily recommend the tour to anyone and would go on it again without any hesitation.
If you've never been to Birmingham do this.

5.00Really enjoyed our tour of Birmingham with Phil who was really knowledgable and a great guide. Although from the UK had never been to Birmingham but now definately want to come back and explore more, especially the Cathedral, balti triangle and even the wedding cake library! Thanks Phil for a great first, but not last, experience of Birmingham.
Great way to spend a morning in Birmingham.
