A brilliant tour of this unique historic port town. Lyndon is incredibly well researched in local knowledge and holds real sincere passion for his community. Thoroughly recommended to anyone with an interest in history.

My wife and I took the tour this morning.There was so much information about the history of the port and village. It was a real eye opener. So pleased we took the tour and would recommend to anyone interested in the past.

He brings it all alive to preserve a jewel in Cornwall.Well worth the hour plus...do yourself a favor and take a walk with him and the charming history of this village and port.
