Summary:
Fantastic tour with Linda on a Saturday evening that entertained our group and kept the teenagers gripped for over 2 hours. Linda is a master storyteller, of the traditional art, and imparted in depth knowledge on Elgins secret history that will never be forgotten by the audience. We saw so much that we have walked past hundreds of times and not noticed. Content was very suitable for all ages and is tailored for the age of the audience. I would highly recommend and will be looking to join more of the tours on different subjects in the future. Bring your listening skills and a warm set of clothes for an enjoyable delve into 17 th century Elgin.

Absolutely brilliant evening and great value for money. Cant wait to do another one.
