My reviews

Ana Maria was my guide and she was amazing. She really understood what I liked and brought me to many places to experience local culture and iconic sights. She knew all the fun facts and history and I learned so much more than expected. The tour totally took the planning off my hands and I can fully enjoy the experience without figuring out directions. For a first time London visitor, this walking tour gave me a great run down of all the iconic sites and off the beaten path local scene. Highly recommended!

Ana Maria was a fantastic host! She shared her own “hidden gems” of the city that I would never have found on my own and packed SO much into my time with her that I felt I saw everything (and more!) Her local knowledge and historical insights were so valuable and I feel like I learned a lot while having fun. Ana Maria was so helpful and warm- I would highly recommend her. Thank you!

We loved Ana Maria and all she had to offer. She did a lovely job and was always thoughtful to make sure we were enjoying our time and seeing what we wanted to see. She was kind and thoughtful.

We had a lovely walkabout with AnaMarie. She instructed us on use of the public transit system, which was so helpful, and was very knowledgeable about the history of the sites we were seeing. She also was a great resource for places to go that were FREE admission. Thank you ANA MARIA!
