Enjoyable

ALEX_P, Jul 2020

A fun diversion on a lockdown afternoon. I was the only person to join at the time so got very good value for a one-to-one tour.

Fun and informative!

Hermione, Jun 2020

It was really fun and informative. The tour guide (Steve/Hagrid) did it very well. Also he made the tour became very entertaining.

Very bad

Diana_D, Jun 2020

Zoom link wasn’t working Disappointed It was a gift. And it went awful. Be sure when you will play for that

Movie Tour of London

lam, Jun 2020

We thought we'd booked a tour of London. We weren't sure if it was a 'remote' experience or if we had to actually be in London to do it by ourselves with the help of a phone app. When we logged in , we realised it was zoom, and EVA , our guide was amazing. We then learned it was a Magic of Film tour and at first were a bit reluctant when we heard there were quizzes BUT we moved out of our comfort zone and absolutely loved it. We didn't have to do video link (showing face/surroundings) but could do it non video and choose an alias. It turned out we knew more than we gave ourselves credit for.We discovered lots of places we didn't even know existed and the history behind them. It was so interesting. I'd definitely recommend it and am in the process of arranging another tour as a surprise to my extended family. Its good fun. Try it!!

Good value

Ema_K, Jun 2020

Interesting concept and knowledgable, charming guide. Very good virtual tour for those who are interested in film industry.

Fun London Movie Highlights

Pam_C, Jun 2020

Our tour was fantastic. The information was interesting. The guide adapted to the group easily and the quiz game kept even our youngest participant interested. Thank you!

Lacked momentum due to IT

Jenny_B, Jun 2020

The guide worked hard to make it interesting but he didn't stop other site users from shouting out. It would have been better to insist everyone muted their mikes. We couldn't hear the guide because others were chatting amongst themselves.

Love to visit London soon!

Kaori_M, Jun 2020

Good fun! It would be nicer if the other guests could put themselves on mute when asked. Would love to join more specialized tours that they organized in future.

It didn’t happen

Benn_S, Jun 2020

I signed up for a virtual tour I was sent a link that didn’t link I contacted by telephone email and chat and it was not updated so we didn’t take the tour I have repeatedly asked for a refund I am still waiting to hear back

Great for all the family

Lisa_D, May 2020

Our guide Lula made this a really fun tour. He was very knowledgeable about London and film. I took the tour with my 10 year old son who loved every minute of it. Looking forward to trying out other tours.

Movie magic fun

Heather_C, May 2020

I loved this tour. It was great seeing places around London where movies were shot. The trivia game was fun! Eva was very enthusiastic which added to the tour.

Not Harry Potter’s London

Laura_B, May 2020

This is NOT a Harry Potter the Ed experience as I was led to believe. But the guide was great, but it was a showcase of many movies filmed in London.

Response from Host, May 2020

Hey Laura, ah we do apologise, we do not actually run any Harry Potter tours at the moment, please get in touch with frankie@seeyour.city and we shall investigate as to why you thought it was, we can also refund the £2.50 from the voucher.

Fun online movie tour of London.

Pamela_W, May 2020

Booked this as it was my daughters B/day and our Harry Potter Warner Brothers Studio tour had been cancelled due to coronovirus. It was a fun and informative online tour. Eva, the guide was very chatty and sang my daughter Happy Birthday. It really cheered her up. Definitely recommend.

Response from Host, May 2020

This is a great review, we are really chuffed that you enjoyed this product, and that we managed to entertain you in this difficult time, I shall pass on these lovely words to the guide.Please feel free to check out any of our other products, we would love you see you again.

Interactive video tour

Audrey_S, May 2020

I enjoyed the tour and found our guide, Eva, knowledgeable and engaging. I would have liked a higher resolution video or perhaps a live video, rather than one that was pre-recorded. Other than that, I liked the tour and it was fun to see the various sights. We did some trivia along the way, which also made it interesting.

Response from Host, May 2020

Thank you for this review, the guide’s have a put so much work into the virtual products and reviews like this make it all worth it. Please feel free to check out the rest of out products we would love to have you back

Different but Good

Hugo_V, May 2020

Nice experience. Of course it's not the real thing. Guide was nice and friendly. Will try to do the real one next time in London

So. Much. FUN!

Ruby_B, May 2020

I booked this tour after seeing a link for it on a friend’s page, and I am SO glad that I did! My husband and I had a great time on the tour. Our guide, Helena, was AMAZING. She was knowledgeable and friendly, and she kept the fun energy going through the entire hour. I learned so much from her “fun facts!”, and I’m definitely going to recommend this tour to all of my friends. Thank you for offering this tour! I can’t wait to return to London, but until then, I’m glad to visit virtually!

London Tour

Antonina_S, May 2020

Helena was great. She shared fun facts and kept us busy with a trivia game. My ten year old son knew answers and loved competing for the most points! His favorite part was the monster trivia!

Response from Host, May 2020

Ah fantastic! what a lovely review, I am so glad you enjoyed yourself on this tour. I shall ensure, these kind words are passed on to your guide Helena. We would love to see you again, so please feel free to check out our other products, we would love the chance to get that 5 star review

Good for movie lovers

Akie_W, May 2020

Lula is a great guide. I can enjoy this new experience. When I go to London next time, I want to take this walking tour and see the guide in person. Thank you

Response from Host, May 2020

What a super review, I am so glad you had a lovely time and will pass on your kind words to Lula your guide. Please feel free to check out our online catalogue, to see if there are any other tours that float your boat . We would love to see you again

First time doing a virtual tour

Mairtin_L, Apr 2020

this was my first ever virtual tour and I had no idea what to expect. It was essentially a super-interactive conference call with a super host. Lula was very energetic and knowledgeable guide. Although you are just sitting in front of your computer for the whole thing, he kept the experience very engaging and informative. Great value for money and a really nice way to spend an hour.

Response from Host, May 2020

Magical Tour through London

JAO, Apr 2020

Luli was a great tour guide with plenty of humour. It was fun to be sorted into Hogwarts Houses and play trivia throughout the tour while competing with the other houses. It was interesting to see the filming locations and I would highly recommend.

No good

Paulina_Z, Apr 2020

We didn't get in,when we try there was a different tour on we tried for over an hour and nothing happens.I'm trying to get a refund now.Kids where very disappointed as they where looking forward to it

Response from Host, Apr 2020

Awesome virtual tour

FelicisFloo, Apr 2020

Superb experience, our tour guide Hagrid was the best! I took the tour online and loved it. Looking forward to taking it again in London

Fun for Harry Potter fans of all ages!

Brittney_B, Apr 2020

Anais was absolutely wonderful. She made the tour so much fun with her bubbly personality and knowledge. Would definitely recommend this to both adults and young readers or movie fans.

Response from Host, May 2020

Super review, really does mean a lot. Thank you for taking the time to write it, we shall pass your kind words on to Anais, and we hope to see you again soon!

Harry Potter Virtual London Tour

Marion_H, Mar 2020

This was a really interesting tour. Natalie is an excellent friendly guide who brings you through Harry Potter’s London. She keeps the interaction going and you can see the other people on the tour. The video is a little muffled picture wise when it speeds up in places but altogether a pleasant experience.
