Excellent, informative day out
Reviewed on
The tour of the ship was led by Lauren. She was clearly passionate about The Glenlee. She was incredibly knowledgeable about it's history and brought it to life so well with information she'd gleaned from research and with her own theories and anecdotes. I would absolutely recommend this tour.
We also had afternoon tea which was delicious. Plenty of sandwiches, the softest scones I've ever eaten and the cakes were all beautifully fresh, well presented and tasty.
The only thing I would caution is that the afternoon tea follows the tour so I was quite hungry by the time it ended, especially as Lauren extended it so she could enthusiastically share more with us. -
Great wee afternoon.
