Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Thoroughly enjoyable with lots of knowledge and interest in places we would have be missed on our own. We would thoroughly recommend this walk for first timers to Brighton.

We were in Brighton for a short break and although we have been once before, it was for a wedding quite a while ago so we didn’t explore.
So we booked the walking tour and met our guide, Julian at the agreed place and time. Being an October and a Monday it was just the two of us joining him. Julian was friendly, knowledgeable and on our wavelength. He showed us some of the known Brighton sights, with a bit more of the background detail delivered with a dry sense of humour! Plus quite a few that you would miss were you to just plod around yourself. All in all a good tour and have even booked some Autumn sunshine for us as we strolled. Thanks Julian.

This brief, but very informative tour was the perfect introduction for us to Brighton. It’s a much bigger city than most people probably think (pop. 250,000), so if you want to understand important details about the city, book this tour. Unfortunately, I’m getting a blank on our guide’s name, but he was excellent - a very enjoyable dry wit coupled with very good and easy to comprehend information. Well worth the time if you get there.

Great insight into Brighton’s history and a wonderful tour round the city. Lot of ground covered which would otherwise not be possible.

We ended up hanging a private tour as we were the only two scheduled. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. We learned a lot of the history of Brighton. Strongly recommend a walking tour to gain insight.

Despite the fact that Julian's and my hobbies were vastly different in terms of cricket, football, and beer, the tour was thoroughly enjoyed. Julian was vastly knowledgeable and humorous. Both my partner and myself really enjoyed it. It's definitely a great introduction to put perspective on your travels in Brighton.

Very informative and patient guide. Julian Had an answer for all our questions, even if he didn’t know he’d ask a local for an answer for us, which showed how much he wanted to be helpful and informative. I was sad when the tour was over as I think Julian has many hours of knowledge to share about Brighton! Highly recommend this tour and guide.

Sorry I can’t remember but it was extremely reasonable I thought. The guy we used was very nice. You have to phone him to book the tour so therewould be no problem having a conversation with him about it.
