What are people saying about London

Chris_P, Aug 2026

Great tour.

Tour guide Ari was awesome. She was friendly, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Having a tour guide gave us so much additional information that made the day much more interesting and meant that we didn't pass small things of interest. Tour length was great. We did the optional Tower of London tour after the main tour was complete and thoroughly enjoyed it.

London Best of the City Fully Customized Guided Private Tour

Mike_N, Jul 2026

London in a day!

Davey was our guide. He was very knowledgeable and engaging, we saw all we wanted to see and he was great about sharing some of his personal favorite spots with us as well. From history to pop culture sites he made our London visit educational and fun. Great guy and super friendly. Made for a memorable experience for us both!

Seven Sisters & South Downs Tour with Train Tickets Included

Mia_R, Jul 2026

Breathtaking Scenery, Exceptional Guide

The breathtaking views of the Seven Sisters cliffs and the beautiful South Downs were unforgettable, and the tour was well-paced with plenty of opportunities to explore and take photos. Our guide Kevin enthusiasm and sense of humor kept everyone engaged from start to finish. I would highly recommend this company and our guide Kevin.

David Bowie, Golden Years Walking Tour of London, Brixton & Soho

Walter_S, Jun 2026

“We Could Steal Time, Just For One Day…”

Our tour guide, Grant Gutteridge, was tremendously knowledgeable about David Bowie, both the artist’s long and storied career, as well as his early years as David Robert Hayward Jones. Along the way, Grant shared anecdotes about several other luminaries of the British rock and roll scene, and their unique relationship to London. Grant is also quite kind. And was very respectful of the residential neighborhoods that we sometimes traveled to while following the Thin White Duke’s footsteps. I learned a lot about my favorite musician, met some lovely people (Bowie fans as a general rule are friendly and accepting folks), and got to see some parts of London that were new to me as a tourist. Our tour primarily focused on the neighborhoods of Brixton and Soho, which are fun places to explore in their own right and even more fun with the added context of learning about Bowie’s history with them. I really enjoyed this tour. If I had more time in the city, I would happily book one of the other ones that Grant offers—such as his Led Zeppelin tour. I honestly can’t recommend this tour enough. It was one of the major highlights of a pretty amazing trip to what is probably my favorite city in the world. Thanks again!

Private Tour London Highlights, entries Westminster Abbey, The Tower of London

Galina is an excellent guide

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Westminster Abbey. We spent enough time to get the highlights and not feel rushed. The guide, Galina, was thorough and informative. She was very professional and made sure to time everything thoroughly while checking about our comfort and needs. You will be happy you did this tour with her.

Fully Guided Tour of Warner Bros Studio Tour London – The Making of Harry Potter

Lynn_E, May 2026

Magical time!

We really were wowed by our trip to the studio. As a fan of Harry Potter, it was an opportunity to open your imagination and be a part of the experience. Our guide Jacob was full of stories and information making our time with him very enjoyable. He recommended the butterbeer ice cream and it was delicious! Seeing where the magic happened left us wanting more!!!!

Blenheim Palace and The Cotswolds Day Trip from London

Lorraine_P, Nov 2025

Recommend any time but the Christmas season.

During the Christmas season it is impossible to see and appreciate the historic and beautiful interior of this building due to the overwhelming Wizard of Oz decor. Our tour guide ,Manon , was outstanding. The tour company had mixed up our tickets and did not have a ticket available for my husband. It was the end of the day and no one was going to do anything about it . Manon tried unsuccessfully to connect the tour company and Blenheim to work out why we were one ticket short . When it became apparent that they were getting nowhere and only eating up our limited touring time Manon stepped up and paid for the ticket with her own money not knowing if she would ever be reimbursed. It’s rare to find such a responsible adult in the world today. The company should be proud to have someone like her representing them. We really appreciated her kindness and generosity and certainly hope the tour company will reimburse her.
