Must not be missed! - What a joy this trip was! Martha was is a hugely talented host: friendly, entertaining and very well-informed. The tour was fascinating and Martha cleverly wove themes (Francis Smith! The Great Fire!) throughout. I cannot recommend the experience highly enough and we are already making plans for the next one.

Highly recommend - Our tour guide was Martha. It was a lovely spring day, after a wet and miserable February. It was great to be out and about and learning about Warwick and it's history. It really uplifted all our spirits and we had a lovely day. Martha had great knowledge and it was delivered well with enthusiasm and a good pace. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone who has an interest in history and who loves Warwick. Also we were able to bring our dogs along, cherry on the cake.
