Banksy Bristol Self Guided Experience
“What a fantastic idea and extremely well executed. Simple steps to pay/use the for 24 hours. It meant we could take things at our own pace. The audio was great and we learnt so much. The fact that we could both listen separately was obviously a bonus !!! Would thoroughly recommend this tour…” Porto70 (Trip Advisor)
