It was really good to...

It was really good to flag the things which we were looking forward to beforehand as then Kieran was able to tailor the night accordingly. We managed to see a whole bunch of stuff that was a bit more off the beaten track and really appreciated having the local insight.

Operator response

Showing our guests places off the beaten track and offering genuine local insight is something we’re very passionate about, so it’s wonderful to know you appreciated that aspect of the experience. Thank you again for choosing to explore the city with us, and we hope to welcome you back for another experience in the future!
