Informative and fascinating - We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. There were only 4 of us with Gary; he did an excellent job in showing and telling us about places in Victoria that we would never have known or appreciated without this experience. It was interesting,informative and fascinating. The food was pretty good, but quite small and the 2 bars really good, as were the 2 drinks.
