Our guide was so lovely! I can’t remember her name but I’m pretty certain it started with a K. Very informative, friendly and enthusiastic. I learnt so much and lots more detail on things I’ve never even thought about :) she didn’t expect a certain amount of commission to be given just whatever we could afford which was nice as we didn’t feel pressured to leave lots of money. Would definitely recommend we wish we did the WW11, nazi and communication sooner. :)
