Latest reviews from our guests

Delia our tour guide was excellent. She did a great job navigating through London on a day where most streets were closed due to cycling event. She took us through Southwark, South bank and Westminster neighborhoods. We were able to get a flavor of the local culture/art, ate at a traditional Pub and still were able to see the landmarks (House of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, and Buckingham Palace) Great day.

Can’t say enough about our experience. We found out things that were not on any plaque. Having an opportunity to learn the ‘back story’ on architecture, politics and events in history provided a much more rich and fulfilling time.
