“Informative and entertaining ”
Lottie, our guide, was highly entertaining, knowledgeable and personable.The tour was relaxed, friendly and interesting. As someone who hasn't read any of Agatha Christie books, I am now very excited to begin.
“It was okay but!!”
Overall the tour was very good, however the guides knowledge was patchy to say the least. She seemed lost on more than one occasion and kept insisting that the Murder of Roger Ackroyd was Christie’s first novel which of course it was not. The final disappointment was being somewhat unceremoniously left outside Browns hotel, a long way from any tube station in 32 degrees heat. As I say a good tour but it would have been better with a more knowledgable and accurate guide.
