エディンバラ : リアル メアリー キングズ クローズ ガイドツアー

Ben, our guide, was phenomenal. He had such a great personality and passion for what he was talking about. I also loved how human he was, trying out new jokes and shaping the information into a style that fitted him which allowed for a very natural way of guiding, keeping us laughing, interested, and informed. The setup of the actual tour was very well structured. I loved hearing about Gardyloo and found it great how two different tours synched allowing for interaction of two group guides during the shouting of Gardyloo. The lighting was enough but not too much to overshine the atmosphere. The decorations painted a realistic scene without feeling forced. My only annoyance was the photo at the end and I would have preferred to be told this was an option as I thought you had to have the photo before proceeding to the next part (for others reading this, this isn't the case). Overall, I highly recommend this experience.

The tour was very well organised and well-timed. We genuinely appreciated the theatricality of the telling. Andrew, our guide, was exceptional and definitely deserves a raise. He has managed to convey the stories of the people of the close with emotion, fascinating facts and extensive use of our eyes and our imaginations. We would very much recommend this tour to our family and friends. Ultimately, we took time after the tour to read the guide (available for free on the app store) and enjoyed getting into a bit more details.

Es wäre sehr cool, wenn in die Tour mehr Akustik eingebaut werden könnte, bei so vielen Menschen, auch Kranken, Kindern und Tieren die dort lebten...mir hätten kurze oder längere vEinspielungen gut gefallen. Toll fand ich die Kostüme der Guides und die "sprechenden" Portrais.
