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.

We learnt so much on the walk up the High Street to the Cathedral. I've always loved Arundel, now we know some it's history and reasons behind it's architecture. I'd highly recommend this tour. Thank you Martin.

We've just had the best tour with Martin. It was fascinating to learn about Arundel. Martin was super friendly, really knowledgeable and very entertaining. We've laughed a lot and learned a lot more! I don't know why we never done this before but I highly recommend it. We got some lovely photos and Martin gave us some lovely keepsakes at the end of the tour.

Not a long walk, but one of the most fascinating and interesting I've been on. He enjoys repartee with the crowd as well as his wife Karen, who reminds him on the bits he's missed out and carries an extra photo album to show us pictures of Arundel in olden days - when they held the cattle market in town - as well as of events new. You'll get info on the history of the town, and its buildings, including the reason for the different types of chimneys - as well as modern day issues influnced by the Duke of Norfolk, whose dictat rules and who owns a great deal of the surrounding area. then there's gossip about the Royals and visits by the late Queen - she being head of the church of England whilst the Duke is head of the Catholic church in England. Not to be missed and a very entertaining hour or so.
