I really loved the enthusiasm of our tour guide. Well researched, he really helped to give us an idea of Birminghams past great contributors with local and international impact.
Very relaxed and informative too.

Really interesting walk. Great guide who shared some interesting facts about Birmingham and its residents of days gone by.
Learnt so much about my home city. Visited parts I did not know existed.
Lovely afternoon with our fab guide Kevin. Such a fun walk, found out some really interesting facts. Thank you
Had a great time
The guide was excellent, very engaging and great insight, knowledge and bonus props - you could not ask for more. A great experience and I have already recommended to our friends
A really engaging host with lots of great facts and stories about the area, the graveyards, the Jewellery Quarter. Easy public transport links made this a convenient experience and we had an excellent afternoon out.
We had a wonderful Sunday afternoon on our walking tour of the JQ catacombs. We learned so much and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. we would (and have) recommended this to our friends and family.
Very interesting. Bought some of the unsung heroes of Birmingham to life. Have recommended this expereince to others
A most enjoyable afternoon with a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable host. Amazing what you walk/drive past every day without taking the time to have a look behind the wall and explore what's not immediately obvious. Very informative and thought-provoking.
Kevin was a great host. He made the walk thoroughly enjoyable and we all learned so much about fabulous Brummies that have been forgotten. His use of visual aids was an added bonus. It introduced us to bits of the city we knew nothing about but are such hidden gems that we'll be revisiting often. The guided walks give you a bit of exercise, get you into the fresh air, make you more aware of our surroundings and give you a buzz about our amazing city.
kevin is very knowledgeable and makes things more interesting with bits of information you might not have thought of asking about. this is the second time i have done this tour, my friend came up from london especially for it. it's my 4th time out on a tour with Kevin
Very informative and makes me look forward to booking another one.
A gift for my husband which he really enjoyed. It was great to hear about the many inventors and innovators buried in the graveyards and hear their impact on Birmingham's history. Made me proud to be a brummie!
We really enjoyed this tour. Kevin's enthusiasm for the subject shines through and is infectious. He is very informative and interesting, we had great time. Would highly recommend this.
Great family visit to learn about the great and good ( but dead) of Brum.
Interesting waking tour with knowledgable guide. So much history hidden in plain sight
