Unfortunately I have to share that we felt robbed by the walking tour. The guide did not succeed in us understanding 10% of what he said, despite asking him twice to speak more slowly. It felt like he didn’t care / didn’t matter to him — I’m sure he did, to some degree, but caring is not enough. Spoke super fast. If you are not a British native, AVOID. The content we did understand was okay-ish, some good anecdotes here and there, will forget the rest of it, and didn’t feel worth the price at this day and age. If this was a tour where you would pay at the end based on how much you enjoyed, we would have left after the first 5 minutes.

The information from this site was limited, and I thought poor.

The information we received on the walking tour was not much better than looking at the street plan and doing a self guided tour. Disappointing for the price.
Why did this site not know that there were graduations being held over the next 2 days and many sites would be closed
