Great walking Pub tour! Wesley met us on time and took us to 4 wonderful historic pubs He shared so much history of the pubs and the area while we winded our way through street, courtyards and hidden alleys of the city. Having a pint at the pubs really makes you feel a part of London. Great way to start our trip. We highly recommend!

Wesley was fabulous and entertaining. We enjoyed the historical background specific to the pubs and the local surrounding area. I have already recommended this tour to my colleagues. The next time we're in London I'll certainly look at other trip options with him.
