Ash Made London Come Alive

My husband and I took the five-hour tour on April 5, 2026, and it was outstanding. Ash made the experience exceptional—warm, personable, and truly engaging. We had an amazing time and came away with a deeper appreciation for London, its landmarks, and its history. Ash was patient and attentive to every question, explaining details clearly so the whole group could follow along. We saw so much in the time we had, and Ash’s knowledge and enthusiasm brought every site to life. The South Carolina connection was a lovely bonus that made the tour feel even more personal. Thank you, Ash, for an unforgettable tour—you truly made our London trip better than we could have hoped.

London: Buckingham Palace & Big Ben (& Westminster Abbey entry)

Bonnie_O, Apr 2026

A wonderful walking tour...

A wonderful walking tour of the must see historical landmarks. Ash was such a knowledgeable and captivating tour guide. I can’t speak highly enough of how much we enjoyed Ash’s insights and unending knowledge of England’s history. Highly recommend this activity. Company was a dream to work with as an unexpected closure of Westminster Abbey they offered a number of alternatives to choose from and flexibility.

London Rock and Roll Music Tour

Alyx_M, Apr 2026

Worth a return trip!

Our guide, Steve, was full of information about both Rock and Roll and London. He easily engaged his audience and has a great sense of humor. I can't for the life of me remember our driver's name, but he was a navigation wizard on a high traffic day due to the tube drivers' strike. We had booked this trip for last year and missed the bus, so we had to come back to London to try again. It was more than worth it!

London in a Day: Tower of London, Westminster & River Cruise

Carol_D, Apr 2026

Great day in London

This tour was perfect. We only had a day in London and we did it all with this tour. Geoff was an amazing tour guide and was very detailed oriented with great history behind all of the sights that we saw. Westminster Abbey was a very extensive tour (1.5 hours inside) with many details! The whole tour last 6-7+ hours so plan accordingly. Its well worth your time and a great way to see as much as you can in London in a day

London: Westminster Abbey, Big Ben & Changing of the Guards Tour

Allyson_S, Apr 2026

An unforgettable experience at The Abbey

We were able to see so much more than we thought we were getting during our original booking. Our guide was able to walk us past the horse guards, and outside the palace while King Charles was in residence. Our guide Ariana was very knowledgeable and very accommodating, as she often tried to get our tour group to the front of the lines for specific viewings of different things occurring around town. Her knowledge of Britain’s History was very impressive and she had great interaction with the group. Walking inside of Westminster was absolutely beautiful and I’m so glad I was able to attend this tour. I recommend to everyone. 10/10 experience!

The Changing of the Guard Tour and Buckingham Palace

Melonie_H, Apr 2026

Wonderful experience!

John was an excellent guide--knowledgeable and friendly. My companions and I got great spots to see the changing of the guard and also the changing of the horse guard! We learned a lot from John about Westminster Abbey and iconic buildings in the surrounding area. Overall, a great guided experience!

Walking Tour of London Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, Buckingham

Andrea_T, Apr 2026

Great tour with many details.

Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and so nice. As a suggestion, you might want to offer tours with a more general overview without so many details to make the experience faster for those who are not history buffs. However this is not a reflection on our guide. I enjoyed it.

London Rock Legends Tour including Abbey Road

Jill_C, Apr 2026

Great tour for rock and roll fans

From the moment we started Ian shared a wealth of information, anecdotes and trivia with us, pointing out landmarks around London and passing out pictures of the various artists taken at the sites we were passing. The tour included a few stops where we got off the bus to stretch our legs and explore or take photos. We had a great driver, as well, and a very comfortable bus. Great tour for rock and roll fans!

Ultimate Jack the Ripper : Guided Tour of London

Ossguie_K, Apr 2026

Walking Tour with Betina

Had a fantastic experience on the Jack the Ripper tour! Betina was an amazing guide, super engaging, knowledgeable, and brought the history to life in such a captivating way. The walk through Whitechapel was immersive and really atmospheric, and I appreciated how she balanced storytelling with historical context, while also giving respectful attention to the victims. Highly recommend this tour if you’re in London, definitely worth it!

Buckingham Palace Entrance Ticket & British Royalty Guided Tour

Graham_D, Sep 2025

Liz from Australia not Linda from Florida

That it doesn't start at the Palace - totally on us for not reading the information completely but thankfully we still caught our group with Louise. Had a lot of interesting commentary to cover sites up the Mall but was heavy on American references. Once you get into the Palace, its a Palace based audio tour. Still great, thoroughly enjoyed the tour.
