Very professional, and very witty too. Learned a great deal whilst having fun. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Tyler as a guide.

Shab's knowledge of all the places he took us was fantastic. My son and I enjoyed every minute of it. It was a long,more than two hours' walk but we weren't tired by the end. Shab is a very friendly person with a good sense of humour. The group size was good, he looked after everyone. We heard lots of interesting stories about places, people. We explored the Gothic district. We played a lovely memory game, too. He recommended us a few great places to eat, too. I can just recommend this tour to anyone who would like to take part in a relaxed walking tour meanwhile he admires all the beauty this district holds.

Fab walk, Tyler was excellent despite what became very challenging weather conditions! And even though we were not able to cover everything Tyler would have liked there was more than enough information to take away and he made it great fun too despite the torrential rain! Superb all round. We will be back, Steve, Liz and Ellie 👏
