Nick Morrison was an awesome guide! He was very knowledgeable about the Abbey and its extensive history!
awesome!!
Excellent tour. He was extremely knowledgeable!!! The only challenge is the tour guide had a very soft voice and I could only hear about 2/3 of what was said. Other guides stood next to our group and I could hear them better than oit guide.
Mark was a great guide. However Amigo Tours kept sending emails with a time change which was confusing and frustrating. We went to the earlier time so as not to be left and had to time an hour for the later time posted. It would have been helpful if the Amigo sign had been held for all to see.
Richard was great - definitely knew his stuff! Thank you!
