A wonderful tour of Hadrian's Wall - We did a full day tour with Anna from Corbridge, seeing the wall and visiting ruins and museums. Despite blustery weather, it was a great day and Anna was the perfect hostess, accommodating everyone's interests and desires!

Leeds Uni Reunion Tour 7 June - Anna was our guide for the day at our Leeds Uni Ladies Rugby Reunion June 2025. She was very friendly, did not rush us and gave us a great insight into Newcastle on a 3 hour tour. She was extremely knowledgeable and answered all of our many questions. I would not hesitate to recommend Anna for a tour. Thank you.

We loved Amanda - Amanda led our group really well. She had interesting stories and fun facts to share with us. We were really impressed with her knowledge. She was fun too and had a bit of banter with a Scottish girl friend who was part of our group. We had a lovely tour.
