“Our guide was lovely and really informative. He was considerate and helpful to all on the tour too. Unfortunately we couldn’t go into the cathedral on our tour as a there was a bishop’s funeral, but that was no fault of the guide and out of his control. However instead he took us around the gardens and it was great and he still gave us the cathedral tickets to use at another point which I used the next day.
