“The medieval walking tour of Chester was fantastic. Thomas was dressed as a longbow man and talked to us in character. He got a lot of fascinating information across in an enjoyable way. We learnt a huge amount about that period in history and what was going on in the Chester area and he really brought it alive to us. I was very impressed with his knowledge and his obvious passion for history. I would strongly recommend this tour as fun as well as informative.”

“What a fabulous day hosted by Frank our driver with style - , he was educational , entertaining and a few ‘ dad ‘ jokes thrown in for good measure ! I’m amazed what we saw - and very glad I did the tour rather than drive myself with some off the beaten track roads handled with great care and expertise by Frank . A great mix of stunning countryside scenery with coastal beauty and some interesting towns . An exhilarating day topped off with walking the longest and highest aqueduct . Highly recommended - don’t miss this !”
