Great Tour

Robert_A, Oct 2021

A really good insight into Newcastle Quayside by our Alex, our guide. We had not visited Newcastle before and would thoroughly recommend taking this tour. Alex is very knowledgeable and presents the information in a very friendly and interesting way.

Excellent experience
