Daniel is very engaging and knowledgeable - it was a great way to start our day! Bit of exercise with loads of laughs and historical tidbits peppered throughout. His dog, Bram, was such a sweetheart and a bit of a ham, which I loved as an animal lover (but also very quiet and well behaved, so no need to worry if dogs aren't your thing because it would be very easy to avoid him). Daniel makes a point of connecting with each member on the tour, which really makes the whole experience more entertaining. Definitely would recommend!

Daniel was charismatic, knowledgeable and highly entertaining. Sense of humour mandatory especially if you come from Southampton(private joke on todays walkers who were too weedy) If you want a laugh with a little exercise definitely book yourself on. Only thing missing was 4 pints of lager. 10/10 not to be missed
