Loved traveling around the UK with Peter. His attention to detail, flexibility when challenged, and entertaining, informative style was much appreciated. The Liverpool experience was enhanced by his walk through Beatles history with opportunities to walk and see where the band lived during their formative years. Loved our time in Edinburgh. Drivers Dimitri and Steve kept us safe and on schedule. Would highly recommend this tour.
