“Very informative, enough information to keep it interesting but not overwhelming with deep facts. Chrysa was friendly and fun, she lead the group brilliantly and her storytelling and explanations were excellent. It was well organised from start to finish. Warning- if taking a child on a child ticket, they may check your passport/ ID for verification. This wasn't in the guidance but happened to a few people. This is hopefully useful for other guests.”

Despite the rain, wind and fog, the tour was definitely worth it. The schedule was not too tight and left room for a bit of exploration at our own pace. The optional groul lunch was very tasty and it surprisingly had some options for different dietary needs.
