The tour guides were great! The history of the place and persons involved. We were lucky as it was a full moon too. I’ll be back for more tours!
Would do again in a heartbeat

Andrew is an amazing storyteller, and the knowledge researched and shared made the experience even more worthwhile. We had the pleasure of Jack Sim himself taking the 2nd part of the tour, which added to a fantastic night out.
