    Tony Wade did an excellent job in leading us through a number of interesting adventures in Kent. Good commentary before reaching a destination and made sure that we were getting as much as possible from each. Rooms were well selected and comfortable. And driver Steve found his way through some interesting back roads, and got us there as scheduled.. All in all, a wonderful experience. Thanks!
