This is an excellent introductory tour to the history and main buildings in Birmingham. In 90 minutes there is not time to go inside the buildings, but the information given certainly whets the appetite for a more in depth exploration. Our guide was knowledgeable, professional and enthusiastic. (Surely he should have an official badge or lanyard???)
Great tour, great guide!

Great guide, he was very knowledgeable and was accommodating for our group. Would do this again as I am sure I missed some things.
