Experience London
Beyond the Guidebooks

Great!

Becky was a wonder! She listened to what we were interested in seeing and tailored the tour just for us. She went above and beyond showing us how to use the tube back to our hotel. This was a lifesaver for the rest of our trip. She was the best! Highly recommend.

Shopping with Becky was fabulous. She knew the places to go so that I could buy what I wanted and have the experience that I was hoping to get. She was fun and knowledgeable. She took me for my first ride on the tube and on a double decker bus. It wasn’t my first time in London, but it was the best. Becky helped me tease my son because they support different teams. Even he enjoyed it.

It will be tailored to what you want to do. Going to the types of shops that you are interested in makes all the difference. I was able to buy exactly what I wanted while seeing some places in London that I wouldn’t have seen otherwise. I have some good pictures from the experience.

My tour guide was Ana Maria. She was wonderful. She planned the day perfectly, so not I was only able to see the things on my list but also much much more. Ana Maria was easy going and a pleasure to spent the day with. Thank you for this great experience.

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!

Our guide, Tom's, knowledge of the social history of London was encylopedic and delivered with great style. A natural raconteur, he was engaging company and we left him having had a fun tour of Camden Lock. Highly recommended.

We just returned from the most incredible trip to London, and hands down, the highlight of our entire visit was our time spent with Tom, our amazing tour guide! Traveling with a mix of family and a close friend, we were a pretty diverse group—but Tom managed to make every single one of us feel engaged, entertained, and completely taken care of from start to finish. From the moment we met him, Tom's energy, knowledge, and passion for London were absolutely infectious. He didn’t just rattle off dates and facts—he brought the city to life with fascinating stories, hidden secrets, and hilarious anecdotes that you won’t find in any guidebook. Whether we were strolling through the historic streets of Westminster, standing in awe outside Buckingham Palace, or navigating the quirky charm of Camden Market, Tom’s commentary made every stop unforgettable. What really stood out was how personal and flexible the tour felt. Tom took the time to get to know us and customized parts of the day to match our interests. He even kept the us entertained with fun trivia and little challenges, while giving deeper insights into London’s rich history and culture. Beyond being incredibly knowledgeable, Tom is just a genuinely kind and incredibly hilarious. He made sure everyone was comfortable, gave us great photo tips (and took some amazing group shots!), and his passion for sharing London truly made the city feel like home. If you’re visiting London and want an unforgettable, personalized, and fun experience, don’t even think twice book a tour with Tom. He’s not just a guide—he’s the reason our London trip was so magical. Thank you, Tom! We'll be talking about this adventure for years to come! Rosanna

Tom is knowledgeable and very personable. He made sure we saw as much as possible. Will be happy to tour with him again.

Delia was an excellent tour guide. We covered a ton of area in 4 hours. She also helped us navigate the subways so we could use that the rest of the trip instead of taking Ubers. Saved a lot that way. Great experience

My tour with Delia was a great balance of information, conversation, time for my questions—we covered a lot of ground but the time seemed relaxed. She is knowledgeable, friendly, and an ideal guide for someone who wants to know about London’s history as well as current life in the city.

Absolutely incredible experience with Delia as our tour guide! She was informative, knowledgeable, and showed us parts of the city we never could’ve discovered on our own. Everything was perfectly timed—relaxed yet full of amazing sights. She was especially thoughtful with the pace, tailoring the tour to suit my 5-year-old daughter. Couldn’t recommend her more!

So much food so come hungry! Was a great way to see Borough Market and Maltby Street Market with a knowledgeable local guide.

We had Naomi take us on a wonderful tour of London! Traveled the world but never London, and we shared with her in advance other tours already planned, indicating we didn’t want to duplicate the effort, and wanted to see things that would be unique to any tourist. So she completely nailed it! Meeting us at our hotel at 10:00 am at our request, we take the tube and go through streets and see galleries and stores and had coffee and a pastry at a truly local place. Walked through Covent Gardens and 2 bars that were nearby the law school (even the store where you buy your wig to wear to go to Court). We even met 2 people who were studying bee pollination! Toward the end we asked her to leave us near a local pub so we could have a pint. It was past our time with her, and we offered to buy her a pint, and SHE was having so much fun she joined us and we shared photos of her experiences in India and ours in a South African safari earlier this year! I would highly recommend Naomi in a heartbeat if you want to have a truly unique experience in London!!!

Before arriving in London, we shared with her the tours we already had, scheduled, so she didn’t duplicate the effort. She then took us on a tour that included all things we didn’t already have scheduled. We went to old parts of town, where the law school library was (I’m a lawyer in the States), various parks, the Opera House, a coffee house for mid morning coffee and Coventry Garden and other areas of town we would not have found on our 6 day trip. The best example of her attentiveness was when we said shortly before the end of the tour, that our first stop post tour would be at any nearby local pub for a print that she could recommend. She took us to a perfect pub, to sit outside on a beautiful day, and had a drink with us before she left for the remainder of the day (she spent over an hour with us after our scheduled time!). We would HIGHLY recommend her for any tour you’d want of London!

Naomi was great. Loved the informality of the tour where she sort of customized it to our interests.

S.T. was awesome! He made it so fun and showed us things we wouldn't have seen with anyone else!!

Sean Taylor made this an amazing experience. Me and my 15 year old daughter traveled to London together and we had an amazing day with ST. He was very considerate in our plans to accommodate both of our wants. We both felt very comfortable with him right away. I wish I could have him at all of our travel places!

Enjoyed the guide walking thru the city. Very informative and relaxed atmosphere. Sean made sure we were at the pace we wanted to enjoy.

Sean-Taylor did an amazing job! I would highly recommend him. He went above and beyond and everything was catered to our wants. I would definitely do this experience with him again.

Sandro was an excellent guide. He spent time sharing local history and allowed us to guide what we wanted to see and do! This well worth the money and time!

Sandro was excellent! He showed around SoHo and the surrounding area. Brought us to some very fun Bars. He is an excellent tour guide.

Sandro is an amzing person. He is so easy to talk with and an excellent tour guide.

Fun time in and around the gay neighborhood. Highly recommend. Sandro was friendly and knowledgeable. I think I made a friend!

Darryl was absolutely amazing! So knowledgeable but not boring. We were traveling with our 3 daughters (ages 13, 11, 9), our nephew (16) and my mother (70). He never rushed us and was also a phenomenal photographer! He knew all the best places to get perfect angles for views! We even saw the changing of the guard!

This tour was great because we got to cater it to our specific interests. We stopped and had the best pint of Guinness in London at The Devonshire. We had dim sum in ChinaTown. Darryl, our guide, made us feel very comfortable navigating the city and using the underground. He’s a cool guy, and a photographer, so our pics turned out fantastic!

Darryl is a fantastic guide! He showed us hidden corners of London we’d never have found on our own and really took the time to tailor the tour to our interests. It felt personal, relaxed, and full of little surprises. A great experience — thank you, Darryl!

David was just lovely!! Extremely knowledgeable about the areas we visited. He shared the history and traditions of various sites. How London came to be London. Some tidbits about how the royals do things. As a bonus, he taught us how to properly navigate the tube so we can get around better. All in all, a great day!!

Loved our customized private tour with our new British friend David. He was so informative and took us to spots we never would have known to explore. We went all over and he taught us how to use the Underground in order to get from place to place fast. He was very personable and was just a pleasure to spend half our day with. He dropped us off where we wanted to finish in order to explore on our own and planned the day accordingly. It was such a great experience. I highly recommend this company to use for a personalized tour.

Walking tour of London. Excellent!!

David was very personable and quickly change our route when he discovered my father worked with Eisenhower's here in London and took us to the park,old US embassy and Eisenhower's headqarters. We greatly enjoyed all of little known facts and "hidden gems" all over the westminster area.

Loved touring Windsor Castle. Our tour guide, JJ Hazan, booked us a lovely lunch at The Ivy which we enjoyed. He was very helpful in navigating the best times to arrive at the castle & knew what to see when. We even got to catch a changing of the guard.

We were on a family holiday and it was my teen son’s first time. He had come up with a list of things that he wanted to see and experience and I reached out to CityUnscripted to plan a day for us. Our guide JJ was the perfect match for my wacky group. He was jovial, informative and made the day special for us all. I can’t recommend him and CIty Unscripted enough.

Loved JJ. He took the time to plan a great day based on our input. Would absolute book him again!

JJ is very knowledgeable about London. He knows where to stop for tasty treats! Very engaging host! We enjoyed our afternoon.

Nikki was the best possible tour guide! Communication was excellent to make sure we met. The tour itself was paced well, especially in light of my wife's handicap. Nikki was very, very considerate and made sure we weren't overdoing it. That said, she showed us many iconic sights but also included more hidden gems that only a long-time London resident would know. This was our first experience in London and it couldn't have begun on a better note. Nikki's enthusiasm and friendliness made the experience more than just a "tour". A very enjoyable time. The next group to have her lead them about should count themselves lucky.

That's so hard to say as there was so much! But our tour guide Nikki certainly added more that just knowledge to our visit. Her enjoyment of showing off the iconic sites was palpable and her friendly way was a joy.

Nikki was more than considerate of my wife's mobility handicap. I loved that she frequently asked questions to tailor our tour and experience. I can't imagine a more kind and informative host. Communication for meeting was clear and from the start is was like we'd known her already. A very enjoyable time that we wish could have been longer.

A wonderful and informative tour for all of us. Adults and kids. And beautiful weather helped! Nikki was enthusiastic and comprehensive and very engaging. Highly recommended!

It was an incredible experience! With our tour guide, Peppe, we were able to see and learn about many things all over London. It was so worth the time and money, and Peppe did a wonderful job explaining the history and culture..

Tour guide Pepe. Great experience learning about the Shoreditch neighborhood, its history and eclectic culture.

Our tour guide was most personal and informative. He reached out before tour to learn our interests and priorities. All expectations were met. Simply the best!

He reached out beforehand to learn of our interests and priorities. All expectations were met. Our experience was perfect.

Alan was beyond great. Amidst the tube strike, we got to know central London helped us to navigate greater London later in the week. Alan was a fun guide w many stories and we even enjoyed a pub during our tour.

A great way to spend a day getting to know London. Alan tailored our tour to our situation and interests and was an easy going knowledgeable host and guide. We did the tour at the beginning of our visit to London as a great way to get oriented and figure out what else we wanted to do during our stay. I would definitely recommend this experience to others.

We had an incredible experience in London with our tour guide, Alan. He was exceptionally knowledgeable—not just about the city itself, but also about a wide range of topics including WWII, the music industry, literature, and general history. His insights truly brought the city to life in a way that made every stop meaningful and memorable. What made the tour even more special was Alan’s warm and friendly demeanor. It felt less like a formal tour and more like spending the day with a local friend. Highly recommended!

Alan was amazing. His knowledge of London was outstanding. He was very personable, telling us little side stories, and interesting facts. He tailored our tour to the places we were interested in seeing. We were a group of 7, including two seniors who moved slowly. He was patient, and went at our pace. I would highly recommend this tour, and ask for Alan!

Gessica was an amazing London ambassador, tour guide, foodie, conversationalist! She took all my suggestions and folded them into our day. She even managed to meet me at my hotel. I was nervous going solo, thinking she’d get bored of me but on the contrary we got along famously and the dat flew by and was incredibly fun, as well as delicious.I would book her again in two seconds flat. Book this tour you will not regret it.

Solo? Group? Couple? Gessi can take care of you! I was solo and was worried she’d be bored with me but no worries! Many food and London memories were made on this fantastic food and mini london tour. Gessi will cater to YOU and your needs, wishes, desires. She will make your dreams come true! Book this. Don’t wait!

Gessi is amazing. She is kind, fun, adventurous, knowledgeable and above all easy to be with. I was worried me being solo might bore her but she is lovely to chat, eat, learn from. Best food, walking tour Ever!

Knowing we had already been to many popular attractions, Gessica took us to off-the-beaten-path areas of London to ensure we saw something new. She also took the time to plan visits covering different ethnicities, while working around a dairy allergy for the treats of the tour. We had a most wonderful time and really enjoyed Gessica’s company.

She is an incredible person and guide, always making sure to give all the facts about each spot.

love bea! very knowledgeable and friendly

We had a wonderful time with Bea. She was incredibly knowledgeable about London. She knew lots of interesting facts that are not commonly know. She was very accommodating and allowed us to adjust our plans based off of what we wanted to see or spend more time doing. It was raining a lot that day but she remained positive and came up with alternative methods of transportation so we weren’t always in the rain. I would definitely use her again.

I took the "Private Custom London Tour with a Local". My tour guide was Beata (Bea) and she was awesome. It supposed to be me and 2 others but they canceled at the last moment so I went solo with Bea. We had a great tour and hit all the sites. I had purchased an all day pass at the airport that morning to get to London and used it on the tour to jump on busses and the subway and then to get back to my airport hotel, that worked out great for 24 pounds. We hit all the sites I wanted to see including Big Ben, Cathedrals, Buckingham Palace, Harry Potter locations and many others. We stopped for hot chocolate along the way to take a brief rest. It was an awesome day and she was an awesome guide
