5.00Gary and Béla were amazing tour guides, Gary’s wealth of knowledge was second to none, with a fun and quirky add of some random facts (my favourite being the reason the cross on top of the crown is crooked) Béla was a little more reserved but did allow you give her a little scratch behind her ears now and then and with a little tail wag she was off to do her job lol all in all an excellent way to spend a couple of hours seeing some of the most beautiful sites. 10/10 would recommend x
