Amazing experience and guide - Amazing experience and tour guide. It was informative and fun. We had four adults and two kids below the age of 2 and it worked perfectly. Safe, interesting and very central.

RIP OFF!! - Total rip off! Our guide today was so uninvolved it was pathetic. Considering we paid £129 for 5 people. I have been punting on many occasions and have always had really cheerful and informative guides. I had built this up as the grand finale for my guests and WHAT A LET DOWN IT WAS!
