Sonique's tour was amazing, she was so bubbly and friendly, put us all at ease straight away! There were lots of food choices and we enjoyed every one! She is a natural story teller and it made the history of the area really come to life! It is also a tour group that gives back to the local community which is commendable! I would highly recommend!
