Mr Brunel (aka Ryan) was superb. Very knowledgeable - great anecdotes - friendly and engaged with everyone en route (including the school children who thought he was Willie Wonker!). Obviously very keen to impart his enthusiasm for Brunel SS, Great Britain and all that it stands for. An amazing ambassador for the charity, ably supported by Sweeper Louise. A thoroughly enjoyable morning.

This walking tour was really fun and informative. I highly recommend it. Mr Brunel was perfectly in character for the whole of our walk, and so very knowledgeable about “his“ life.
