Interesting walking tour - I came up to Newcastle for a couple of days break and thought it’d be good to learn more about the city. I was the only person on the tour, but it was very interesting, Martin definitely knows his stuff.

Very interesting and informative - I thought 3hrs would be too long but Martin was really interesting and knowledgeable about so many aspects of the city and was very accommodating to our needs and we really enjoyed our tour. We appreciated him going ahead with the tour even though we were such a small group (3)

My second home - An amazing vibrant city. I saw a performance at Northumberland Street and it was fascinating. I go every year to visit my daughter. I'm just trying to figure out how to get tickets to San James's park
