Latest reviews from our guests

We had a wonderful time touring London with Becky! We started the day at 9 am with a ride on the Tube to Westminster, then a walk around that area to see Big Ben and Parliament with stops along the way to describe what we were seeing. We then went to Buckingham Palace for the Changing of the Guard. We took a short restroom break, had refreshments then walked over to the River Thames for a water tour to the Tower of London. We next stopped for fish and chips, followed by a detailed tour of the Tower of London to include the Crown Jewels. Afterward we took the Tube back to central London to visit the Churchill War Rooms, which was very interesting. We had been to Normandy the day prior, so it was very informative to learn the British perspective. At this point it was 6 pm. We parted ways with Becky and Ubered to the train station to travel by Eurostar to return to Paris. We recommend Becky without hesitation. She was born in Wales and lives in London and has a deep knowledge and understanding of the city!!

Excellent service, and I was very impressed with the quality of customer support during the rescheduling process due to my client's flight cancellation.

Superior experience! A must do! Our guide, Becky was absolutely brilliant! My 2 daughters and I were amazed at the way she tailored our walking tour according to our interests. She is extremely knowledgeable about the city and showed us things we would never have seen on our own.
