We really enjoyed this tour, the personal touch and information made the experience so much better. Our tour guide, Svend, did an outstanding job. He is gifted story teller and would recommend him to anyone. Very personable and genuinely nice.

Sara was a great guide and very informative. She showed us loads of locations that we wouldn't have seen. A bit creepy walking round grave yards in the misty dark weather!
