Summary:
What a charming and delightful city! Me, my Daddy, my brother Brad and my Mum have decided to do the walking tour of Lincoln of the attractions of Lincoln that I never been before and the attractions in Lincoln were excellent and more important to other people when visiting Lincoln and I done the walking tour of Lincoln back in December 2012 when I was a young girl that I was in awe of the history, diversity and genuine kindness of the people we encountered.

Summary:
Having chosen to visit Lincoln on a short break we decided that the best way to get to the heart of the City and its history was on a private walking tour and so we booked with Ye Olde England Tours and boy did we make the right choice. Stephen, our guide for the day was absolutely amazing, from meeting us at our accommodation right through to the end of the tour he was perfect, his depth of knowledge together with his easy, relaxed style and sense of humour make him the perfect host. With Stephen we got to see not just the big tourist highlights but other lesser known places of interest around the city that we simply would never have even known about much less visited had we been on our own. I cannot recommend Ye Olde England Tours and Stephen highly enough, so much so that we booked for another Lincolnshire tour
