Fantastic Tour

Published on Oct, 2024

Our tour guide Joe was fantastic, he paced the tour really well to allow us to look at things and take breaks if needed. He even helped us get a Bratwurst roll as we got a bit peckish along the way! The tour was great and Joe had a lot of great information about the various sights. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Joe for a great tour :)
