Dock tour with Kevin
22marieh
, Aug 2019
We were met on time in our hotel and after introductions headed out to Wapping. Our guide Kevin was extremely familiar with the area since his family had worked there and as a child he spent a lot of time there. The tour wandered in and out of the old warehouses and Kevin explained how the old docks worked. Because my husband and I are interested in architecture and military history Kevin included a lot of information on those subjects also. The tour included quite a few hours, it was so informative that we did not even feel the time passing. His knowledge was impressive, his candor and honesty on many subjects and his warm personality made us feel at the end of the tour that we made a friend....and we will keep in touch....thank you Kevin
