5.00Ellie is fab, even on a cold day she kept her enthusiasm and made the information informative but also exiting! Give this girl a pay rise she's a credit to you. Even rang to help us find the location after we got a little lost. Really good tour with little gems we otherwise would have missed 😊
AMAZING AFTERNOON!

1.00The walk was cancelled due to no guide being available. I did not get a refund and would not recommend the operator or booking this through Trip Advisor because there is no follow up when things don't go to plan.
Very enjoyable tour for all ages
