Two wonderful museums & a visit to a lovely park. Such a great way to learn about Englands history. Finished off at Liberty where I was totally blown away by their array of products. Wish I had more time! Jo Green

We spent the day with a lovely woman named Bea. She was honestly the best tour guide we ever had. She catered to our every desire in what we wanted to see. She took us to a lovely little café for lunch as well and it was some of the best food we had. Bea was so knowledgeable and friendly and we learned so much about London. Bea is the type of tour guide that I would want as a good friend if I lived here! She never made us feel rushed and made sure to pack in everything we wanted to see. Thank you Bea!
