    Short tour, well presented, with history and much explanation. It rained mostly, but it didn't mar our enjoyment.

    Stephen was our tour guide and he was kind, informative and he walked slow, which was good for me. It was raining unfortunately and he was very to another tourist in our group and offered his umbrella to her. We enjoyed his commentary and knowledge.

    Het was mij in eerste instantie niet duidelijk dat het TUI ********** ook echt bedoeld was als contact punt ter plaatse. Misschien bij de boeking expliciet vermelden.
