Russell was very knowledgable and entertaining.
Russell was very knowledgeable and interesting. He showed us several locations that I don't think we would have found on our own. It was an excellent experience and we learnt a lot about Brighton. Thank you!
Russell was our guide and he was great. There was only myself and my husband on the tour so there were lots of information sharing. Russell was knowledgeable and open to questions. Would recommend.
Excellent guide. We are experienced travelers and one of us is a professional guide in NYC, and we were very pleased with the manner, knowledge and suggestions that our guide made. Took it the first full day we were there and it helped us enjoy the city more.
Tour was brilliant, and the guide was too.
My wife and I were lucky enough to have a tour with Julian on a sunny afternoon and fortunately for us we were the only ones at that time. Julian was very knowledgeable, and by living in Brighton most of his life, took us to not only the popular places but also those we would have easily missed, providing a large amount of history along the way and made this a far more enjoyable experience. A thoroughly enjoyable stroll and would recommend it to anyone.
Russel knows a lot about Brighton and addressed our questions. He is knowledgeable and showed us places we would never have visited. It was great!
Our guide, Russell, was excellent. Very knowledgeable and funny, learned lots of history and culture
Most enjoyable experience, Julian was very knowledgable, with a great sense of humour. Very informative with recommending restaurants and pubs we would have not known about otherwise. Highly recommend. Thanks Julian!
Russell was an excellent guide and knew his history. Despite my living in and around Brighton for many years he showed us things I was not aware of. Highly recommended.
