Alnwick castle - Alnwick castle has lots of different shows that go on all day. Enjoyed seeing the different hunting birds in action and where they were used. Tour guide has plenty of stories and easy to hear. We bought tickets to Alnwick castle on arrival, which was easy.

Alnwick Castle and The Borders Hogwarts Filming Location - The tour with Paul & Emily was great! The castle was beautiful, definitely opt to pay the extra amount to check out the gardens. Don’t forget to attend the broom riding class

Very good! - Communication was easy and clear. The whole tour was very entertaining and the timing was almost perfect. We would have liked a little more time for Bamburgh Castle. The tour was entertaining and interesting, also thanks to our tour guide Sophie. Highly recommended!

Tour Guide - Steven was really helpful! He was enthusiastic about things. He told the truth! He didn't talk about Whiskey because he knew that there was children on the ride. Our previous tour guides always sweared and always talked about Beer and Whiskey.
