Reviews
Had a wonderful afternoon walking around the old part of the cemetery learning about our Geelong forefathers. The actors playing the various roles were excellent and we gained lots of insight into the important roles many of our forebears played in shaping our city. Lots of Streets, Suburbs, Bridges, Buildings etc . that we drive over and around and take for granted now have a bit more meaning. The wonderful insight some of them had and the many charitable institutes that were set up is truly amazing . Well done to all and we will certainly recommend this walk to all our friends. 2 hours very well spent. Thank you.
