Great! The Cathedral is beautiful and a self-guided tour was just right for me. Quick entry and easy to follow al instructions & signage. I really enjoyed the gardens areas too.

This tour is so interesting and so easy to navigate with the map and the audio. The staff were so helpful. The history and artifacts were wonderful to see and hear about. Highly recommend it.

A wonderful and informative experience. Our guide, Fergus, led a wonderful tour throughout the cathedral that the group found most enlightening. So much history. I stayed afterward to attend the Evensong service and felt like I was transported.
