Some of our recent feedback:

 

What a great event! Manage beautifully and an amazing visit to an incredible achievement and venue.

Real eye opener for the Great Tapestry. we will revisit to finish our viewing

Most enjoyable. I learned so much about Scottish history.

Great choice of event, something a little different that I wouldn’t necessarily have thought of doing myself. I like the self-guided format as well. Meant we could all focus on the bits that most interested us, though I did enjoy the pre-viewing talk.
