    Knowledgeable and great fun. Parts of London never seen before. Terry’s enthusiasm is contagious. Highly recommend

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Glad u enjoyed Rich people behaving badly Katherine!

    The devil is in the detail (literally!)

    DEBORAH_A, May 2025
    I first experienced Terry's unique guided tour four years ago with British friends and we thoroughly enjoyed a fun and informative couple of hours. This time I introduced a group of European friends who were delighted to have their long held suspicions about posh rich Londoners confirmed! This is a wonderful way to explore beyond the swanky shop fronts of Mayfair and appreciate the details of the area's history. Terry's clear enjoyment of the accompanying story-telling makes this tour all the more memorable. Thank you once again!

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Thanks Debroah - great to meet u and friends again on Rich people behaving badly

    A tour of London with a difference

    Stuart_C, Mar 2025
    Terry has created a very fascinating tour about the antics of the rich and the famous from London's past and shows how they've left their mark on London today. A great tour for people who are already familiar with the mainstream landmarks in London or those who fancy a tour which is off the beaten track.

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Thanks Stuart - enjoyed your company on Rich people behaving badly!

    Fun and Educational Tour!

    We had a wonderful time on this tour. Whereas other tours just tell about buildings and battles, this tour focused on colorful royals. Terry told fabulous stories about William IV and other royals while showing us where they lived and played. The two hours flew by. Highly recommended!

    Response from Host, Jul 2024

    And greatly enjoyed your company on Rich behaving badly -I think u mean George 1V not William 1V !!!

    Interesting and fun time.

    Went on tour yesterday, Terry was very knowledgeable and friendly, great way to spend a couple of hours in London, exploring places we had not seem before and finding out about the history…..thanks Terry

    Response from Host, Oct 2021

    Thanks Pete. It was a pleasure meeting both of you on Rich people behaving badly!

    Superb sunny afternoon activity!

    Patricia_D, Sep 2021
    Yesterday’s “Rich People Behaving Badly Tour” with Terry Silvers was an entertaining way to spend a sunny London afternoon. Given we were in London, most of the Rich people acting Badly were ROYALS some of the sordid details were hysterical. It was time and money well spent! Walking tours are a great way to learn more about the history, people and politics of an area in a far more interactive fashion! Thanks for the fun Terry!!

    Response from Host, Sep 2021

    Very kind. Thank you. Great to meet you on my Rich People Behaving Badly tour

    Great insight into the history

    Fatima_S, Jul 2021
    We didn't even notice how this two hours flew by with Terry. His stories about people, about buildings, O tempora, o mores were very fascinating and informative. Thank you very much, Terry!

    Response from Host, Jul 2021

    Thank u so much Fatima. It was a total pleasure meeting both of u. Hopefully next time your daughter will come too!

    A facinating adventure

    RISHI_S, Sep 2020
    My wife and I had a lovely 2hr tour with Terry, as he took us through cobbled streets that I never knew existed just off the main streets of London. We learned some interesting facts about the 17th century rich people and royalty of London and how it shaped the west side of london at a time when it was rural and counteyside! A fun 2 hours and great value for money. Terry is a lovely guide and full of knowledge and passion for Londons history!

    Response from Host, Sep 2020

    I really enjoyed meeting u both Rishi. Absolute pleasure to talk History on a sunny afternoon.

    Witzig und informativ

    Oliver_D, Jul 2022
    Wir haben unseren Guide Terry schnell und pünktlich am Treffpunkt gefunden. Die Führung war klasse. Wir haben auf sehr witzige Art viel über alte und neue Royals wie auch über Details diverser Londonner Straßen gelernt. Terry hat immer frühere Charaktäre mit heutigen verglichen. Terry spricht schön deutlich und verständlich auch für uns Ausländer. Mir hat die Führung sehr gut gefallen. Ab 16 Jahren kann ich sie für jeden empfehlen.
