Highly recommended - I went on the morning tour with Dee on 27th September. She was a great guide, informative and entertaining, and clearly loves what she does - and is so good at! I've taken lots of walking tours and this was one of the most enjoyable. Dee, if you ever come to Perugia let me know!

Very enjoyable tour - I’m sorry - we cannot remember our guide’s name - a very cheerful, elderly lady on Friday morning 27th September. She was great and led us on a really interesting tour of central Brum!

Friendly & Informative - Had a great morning tour of the centre of Birmingham with the friendly and effervescent Dee. She handled my many questions with aplomb with her great native expertise on all things Brum. Recommended as a very helpful introduction to the UK's second city.
