Brilliant tour through Nottingham

My GF and I had a lovely time with Andi and we are very glad that he took the time even though only to two of us signed up for this specific tour. He showed us many interesting places and told stories with their respective background. He was open to any questions from us and gave many options for restaurants, pubs and other activities throught the city. We can highly recomend anyone coming to Nottingham to take the time for this tour!!

A nice friendly tour given by Andrew

There was only my husband and I on the tour but Andrew went ahead with it anyway. It was very pleasant and Andrew was very knowledgable about the history of Nottingham. We both enjoyed our tour.
