Your tour may vary, but ours was high energy and came with a spectacular surprise, the King of England driving five feet away from us! Our guide, Ollie, was the first to spot the sirens and royal flag on the car, allowing us time to get our cameras ready. In addition to all the stops listed and a tasty lunch, we saw the King! We also enjoyed personal contact, picturesque photos and interesting insights thanks to Ollie who cared for our exceedingly small group. We’re tuckered out but thrilled with our whirlwind tour of London.

Wow, such a memorable day! Ollie was watching to make sure you didn't miss anything, and we're thrilled that you received a royal surprise during your tour (talk about perfect timing!).
It sounds like your tour was packed with energy, great sights, and even better company. We’re so glad you enjoyed the lunch, the personal touches, and the pace of the experience.
Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful review — we’ll be reliving that King sighting right along with you!
Kind regards,
Daniel
The tour should focus more on the historical sites and less on shopping areas. The guide was knowledgeable but the tour is a bit long
Our guide Baha was very kind and knowledgeable. He took us all over the good places and even shared some wonderful extra information by email after including recommendations. Thanks for a great time!
We had Ollie as our tour guide and if we could give her more than 5 stars we would! She was absolutely amazing! Very knowledgeable, personable, funny, took photos for us and knew where the best spots to take the photos were. We had a fantastic experience with her. The place she took us for fish and chips was delicious and had a gorgeous view of the Tower of London and Tower Bridge.
Tour guide did not show up...last minute cannot make it . I requested my full refund. Still waiting my refund confirmation email. I ended up had to purchase Hop-On Hop-Off Bus ticket to tour myself around London. So disappointed! Please process my full refund!!! 😡😡😡

Hi Julia,
Sorry about your poor experience, we hope that you were still able to have a good time in London regardless. However, please note that we did try and get in contact with you weeks before your tour via calls and messages and did not receive a response from you end until the night before your tour. Additionally, we already processed your refund before the start of your tour, please contact Tripadvisor directly if you have not received an email confirmation. Let us know if you are still having troubles or not received your refund.
Regards,
Iheartlondontours
Mon guide Mariana était parfaite. Très gentille et elle connaît très bien l'histoire de Londres...c'est une encyclopédie ! Elle connaît sur le bout des doigts tous les lieux qu'elle m'a fait découvrir. Je la recommande fortement ! Merci Mariana.
