Magical Tour ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
We weren’t really sure what to expect. Matt was amazing. So knowledgeable about trees and nature. The tour runs very smoothly and is so enjoyable. Perfect combination of a walk in nature with lots of fascinating facts at the same time. The poetry and the song in front of a magnificent tree were also highlights of a wonderful experience. Don’t hesitate to book this if visiting Glastonbury. Thanks Matt. Richard and Tracey
