5.00We had a charismatic entertaining guide, Adrian, who made the whole experience very enjoyable. His knowledge on the subject was very good also, backed up by his Aussie humour.
Don't miss this!

5.00I very much enjoyed this tour. Nicky (I think that’s her name) was very informative and a major delight to listen to. She was eager to answer questions which made her very approachable and great to ask her as many questions I had! I would love to do this tour again when I bring my family back! Thanks so much for a great experience!!
Interesting Tour!
