What are people saying about London

The Original Jack the Ripper : Guided Tour

Cory_W, May 2026

Fun for everyone

Our tour guide is really fun to be around, and was very knowledgeable about the various jack the ripper murderers theories. He gave out random murder suspects cards to random members of the group to try and keep the group engaged and help shed more light on possible suspects of the murderers. Overall it was a really fun trip and was well organized by the group leader of the tour. Would definitely recommend to everyone even if you're not a huge jack the ripper fan.

Tower of London and Crown Jewels Exhibition Ticket

Judy_S, May 2026

Tower of London

Wonderful experience visiting the Tower of London. Entrance was easy using our e-tickets. There were plenty of people to ask questions. The bonus was our tour with the Beefeater....he shared so much history and entertaining stories. Their schedule is posted by the Bell Tower. Plus you will enjoy the Themes River and seeing the beautiful London Bridge.

Ghastly Ghost Walking Tour in London

Peggy_C, May 2026

Can I give more than 5 stars?

It was so fun! Hearing about some of the tragedies in London history was fascinating. Walking past, and to, some very significant London landmarks was pretty cool because we also learned brief histories of those landmarks too. George was our tour guide, and when he learned that his entire group was American, he gave us history facts about famous Americans that were tied to London as well. So cool!!

London Jack the Ripper Guided Tour with Ripper-Vision

Kirsten_E, Apr 2026

This tour was amazing!!...

This tour was amazing!! The guide was so funny and knowledgeable (he's written 2 books on Jack the Ripper so he really knows his stuff) it was an easy walk, no hills or steps. I really liked the 'ripper vision' where they showed old photos! I would 100% recommend this tour, and if anyone else asked me to go I would go again!

Ultimate Jack the Ripper : Guided Tour of London

S_C, Apr 2026

Highly recommend

We arrived 12 minutes early and our host was already there to greet us. She was very knowledgeable about the whole history and provided visual aids. As a tourist who had never been to Whitechapel, we passed through a covered shopping center and also a street food vendor street, where we got lunch after the tour!

London by Night Sightseeing Open Top Bus Tour with Live Guide

Vicki_P, Apr 2026

Beautiful and insightful.

Whether hot or cold, make sure to dress appropriately! It was a super cold night and I didn’t think to bring a scarf and dress warmly enough. Also, recommend at the front end of a trip so you see the highlights and make sure you hit the right stops. Also, Emma was a great guide that shared great insights and some awesome shopping tips.

Wicked Westminster: The Original London Ghost walk

Jocelyn_C, Apr 2026

Good walking tour- great guide!

Murray was a fabulous guide. Super animated and friendly! This was a good tour. It was a good amount of walking so be prepared. We did the boat version and it’s the uber taxi which was neat to experience. It’s true there was no stories on the boat as it’s a public boat but it was nice to see the river and bridges at night. The stories were cool to hear and detailed. There was not a lot of talking in between stories which is something different from some other tours we’ve been on but Murray’s stories were very animated. It left me wanting to look up some more on them which is a good thing. Would recommend the tour.

Westminster to Greenwich Sightseeing Thames Cruise in London

Chung_S, Apr 2026

Cruising the Thamez

It was a wonderful experience. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and spoke well conveying the information. Nothing felt rushed. The staff was professional I felt like my husband and I really enjoyed the sightseeing cruise. It was an added benefit to spend time at Greenwich knowing exactly when transportation on the return cruise was taking place. More importantly, when the final cruise returning to Westminister pier.

Jack the Ripper Walking Tour in London

Jack the Ripper Walking Tour (London)

Coming from Turtle Island (America), it’s one thing to read about the history of Jack the Ripper in books, but it’s a completely different experience to actually stand in the exact locations where these events took place. Walking the streets of London gave the history a weight that you just can't get from a distance. Our guide, George, was fantastic. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable and kind, but he also shared local insights passed down through his own family history. Hearing those personal connections made the stories feel much more grounded and authentic. If you're looking for a tour that balances deep historical facts with a genuine local perspective, I highly recommend this one!

London Rock Legends Tour including Abbey Road

Cara_S, Apr 2026

Ian is our Rockstar!

The Rock’n’Roll Tour with Ian was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, we enjoyed every second of it. What really made the experience special was Ian himself – his open, humorous, and passionate personality turned the tour into something truly unique. You can immediately tell how much he loves what he does, and his stories, knowledge, and energy completely drew us in. The mix of fascinating insights, entertaining anecdotes, and the overall great atmosphere was just perfect. It wasn’t just a tour, it was an experience we’ll remember for a long time. Highly recommended!

Original Harry Potter Locations Tour - Guided Tour of London

Victoria_R, Jan 2026

Sensational Harry Potter Tour!

This was a fantastic experience in every way! Our tour guide, Arne, was absolutely wonderful! He was charming, knowledgeable and personable, totally engaging and interesting throughout the entire tour. His trivia questions were great fun, his information and presentation top notch, and the places we visited were all relevant to Harry Potter. We absolutely LOVED it and would recommend this tour - especially with Arne - to anyone! It truly made our trip special and memorable!
