Here are a couple of Anna's reviews.

This was a fantastic introduction to Hadrian's Wall.  Anna has a wealth of knowledge, and she did a fantastic job of helping us to understand the complete picture (the Romans, Wall construction, Reivers, and so much more).  After this tour, we now have a great appreciation for reading the landscape.  This is a fabulous tour!  P.

Anna really knows Hadrian's Wall! We spent the day on a linear tour of the wall. She brought to life the ruins of the Roman Empire at its [northwestern] front.  Anna was very personable, easy to talk to and answered numerous questions. Great Day!  J. P. May 2024
