Michael gave us a thorough and enthusiastic walk and talk through the history of Kirkwall. A highlight was the visit to Saint Magnus Cathedral. Michael was full of stories about the place and really brought it alive for us. I wondered how a walk-through this relatively small town could be made interesting over a four hour period but the time flew past, albeit with a brief stop in a cafe on the way. Thoroughly recommend it!

Helen was very patient and introduced every important historical location in town with great details. Lots of old stories about local customs, language and archaeology were told. Really appreciate the whole tour!
