Adam was the best guide! Funny, very informative and thoughtful. It was a chilly day and blankets were provided which was so great! Would definitely recommend.

Took an Uber to the address shown and it dropped me far away from the meeting point and consequently missed the tour. 70 quid gone just like that. It’s better to just go to the punting place and choose from the many punters. It’s cheaper as well.
