Paul was a great guide. Thorough knowledge, with a good sense of humour thrown in. Just the right number of stops so as not to feel rushed.

He is very knowledgeable and mildly amusing. He will answer all your questions but he did make my wife feel like she had asked a stupid question and embarrassed her, so one star off. If you only ask “good questions” you should be fine.
