The tour guide was the worst I have ever had in all my years travelling, so bad I left after an hour. The most boring information. I have ever had, I might as well have walked the bridge myself and looked for facts on the internet. The first 60 minutes were just standing listening to him recite information, he clearly hadn’t worked out the group had lost the will to live. He looked a mess which wasn’t a great first impression. The tour might have been great with a different guide.

Onze gids Nick was echt super! Hij vertelde heel vermakelijk en betrok iedereen in het verhaal. Hij is de eerste gids waarbij onze kinderen de aandacht erbij hielden. Na afloop zeiden ze dat dit de leukste tour was die ze ooit gedaan hadden. En we hebben er veel gedaan. Heel bijzonder om over deze iconische brug te lopen en erover te leren. Een droom die werkelijkheid is geworden!
