“Excellent tour for a great price. You learn about the heartbreak and tragedy of the Famine – but also the stories of some of those who survived and thrived in the Americas, and the care the ship owner, captain and doctor took to keep those under their care healthy. Definitely recommend.”
Andy – May 2025
