We really enjoyed this experience. We loved the stories that were told and looking at all the old buildings. The two things I would change is the walking pace. It says in the advertisement it is a leisurely walk but it was far from that. The other thing that could change is where the tour ended. We expected it to finish where it started and not leave us a kilometre from the train station. We are glad it was daylight....would hate for two women to be walking alone through Maitland to the train station at night.
