Insightful and humorous tour - There was just the two of us and we had a really good tour provided by Julian. He was Brighton born and bred and gave wonderful historical and contemporary insights into various parts of the city that we would have not known about. His dry sense of humour also was very appealing! Throughly recommend.

Super guided walk - Had a fabulous guided walk with Julian yesterday. There were just the two of us and he pointed out many things we would not have noticed ourselves. He had a great sense of humour and was very knowledgable about Brighton. I’d highly recommend this trip.

Enjoyable informative experience - Myself and husband decided to take the walking tour and we were not disappointed. Julian has a wealth of knowledge and despite trips to Brighton previously we learnt a lot. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would recommend it.

Wonderful tour of Brighton - Really nice couple of hours being shown around Brighton. Two of us live in Brighton but learned a lot that we didn't know. Julian was a lovely, funny and informative guide

Worth the walk - Cosy strolling tour through the city with a funny guide who could tell about Brighton and give us information we didn't know from before

A nice day. - The guide, Russell, was most helpful, polite sporting. He spoke about places with history and background which I would have not known about if I have googled and walked about on my own. He also took the trouble to show me some shops even after the tour ended. The weather was not kind but it was not anyone’s fault. It was a nice day.

Never showed up, then refused my refund request - Showed up to the meeting spot 20 minutes early and waited. The time rolled around to begin and no one was there. I messaged the tour guide. No response. I contacted Viator, telling them all this. They said they couldn't get ahold of the tour guide either and asked me what I wanted to do. I said I guess just refund my money and I'll continue along with my day. They put in a request for a refund and it was denied, the tour guide saying it isn't his problem and he has a lot of compliments on his tours. I had to reiterate this request 3 times to get a simple refund for a tour that I never went on and wasted over an hour of my day. I just wasn't letting it go, it was outrageous. So I'd tell anyone looking to book this to not count on it happening and to have a backup plan!
