Linden is highly knowledgable, friendly, and made sure we were having a good time. Any questions I asked, he had the answers too. We also got some really niche interesting nuggets of information on the walk and we went to pubs I never would've found on my own. We also had a great group for our walking tour. It was one of my favorite activities while there. If you're interested in beer and history, this is a fantastic tour!
Mark was great! He really knew his history and be pubs were so cool.
Loved the history about each pub/tavern as well as general history about the times and where the pubs are located.
This was Absolutely very informing and fun at the same time. Our guide Mark was so funny, definitely recommend!
Although we didn’t make the beginning of the tour, we did show up in enough time to have a great experience. Fun and lively, Mark was our guide and killed it! Highly recommend.
