5.00This was a fascinating and memorable experience. Our tour guide, Jane, was not only an excellent driver on these sometimes narrow roads, but highly informative and helpful. She was indeed a fountain of knowledge!

4.00The UK express has delays and the Oxenholm connecting train will not wait for you, so be careful ⚠️, in my case, I managed to get by email with the tour company via the app, but Oxenholm taxis are quite hard.
Fabulous day
