Carmel has a wealth of knowledge and an equal amount of humour which were both delivered with perfection. We had trouble joining on time due to poor bus service but he waited at the start of the tour point for 10 minutes so we didn’t miss out.

Matthew was superbly knowledgeable and happy to tweak the tour to reflect our interests. He also was very happy to take questions, to the extent that our 2hr tour lasted over 2 1/2 hours. Would thoroughly recommend
