“Gareth is single-handedly responsible for organising the 'go-to' walking tours in Liverpool and Chester. I cannot recommend both Gareth and his tours highly enough. They are a fantastic combination of humour, local history and the best, most quirky food and drink outlets in each city. Equally perfect for intimate corporate entertaining and socialising with friends and family”

HELEN JOHNSON, Head of Marketing at Aaron & Partners:

“Gareth’s Food Walking Tour of Chester was a fantastic teambuilding day out, we learned plenty about the city, as well as visiting some really interesting places we'd never been to before. Planning the event was straightforward too, with plenty of communications between Gareth and me to clarify any dietary requirements, specific expectations etc, and we were well briefed as to how the afternoon would run.”
