Highly recommend - Our tour guide Ivan was fantastic! The amount of information he gave about eye witness accounts to the photographs he shared were all fascinating. Seeing the different locations in person really brought life to the images and videos my family have seen. I give Ivan a 10 out of 10!

Good Value - Orlando was a good and engaging guide who added some personal experience to the background. It was also positive to have context added to buildings you would not realise the significance of.

Don't use this service. It hard to track down the owners. Always book direct. - I would never again us this service. I received a text from the driver that the time had been changed to 1 PM versus the 10 AM Booking time and created a problem that we had changed our plans. I'm still trying to get a credit back on my account.
