Our tour guide was Martha. It was a lovely spring day, after a wet and miserable February. It was great to be out and about and learning about Warwick and it's history. It really uplifted all our spirits and we had a lovely day. Martha had great knowledge and it was delivered well with enthusiasm and a good pace. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone who has an interest in history and who loves Warwick. Also we were able to bring our dogs along, cherry on the cake.
Very informative & engaging tour
