Great and interesting tour - ^We went into streets we would not have seen otherwise. Much of the tour does not feature in the classic guides

Interesting guided walk - I enjoyed my guided walk through Covent Garden, seeing little courtyards and alleys that I wouldn’t have done otherwise, and hearing the history of the area. I will now know where to look for a lovely spot to eat on my next visit.

To visit - Very cool place to visit. The Apple Market has crafts. Terraces. At the time there was a group playing classical music. You can buy souvenirs. It's really very pleasant!!

Good simple tour. - App was easy to follow, and was able to set our own pace. Made the mistake of eating before hand. You go past a number of great cafes and bakeries, so no eat before.

Waste of time - couldn't even access the tour due to no communication and no help from TripAdvisor - Absolutely appalling - couldn't even get the code for the tour to access the app. No instructions provided. No help from TripAdvisor despite spending 20 minutes on a call going round in circles with someone who didn't have a clue how to help me. Spoiled a surprise for my mum n dad's pre Christmas present trip to London

Buyer beware. - The link I was sent didn't work. The pdf version wouldn't download. I wasted a lot of time trying to access this tour on my last afternoon in London and I'm mad about it all.

Double Talk - The trouble with the app was that by the time i got to the 7th stop 2 people were talking over each other so that I couldn’t understand what eithor was saying. Very disappointing

Disappointing and frustrating lack of response from the organisation - We never did the tour because I could not get a response from the Guides to answer some questions I wanted to ask. Disappointing and frustrating. The three separate phone numbers were never returned and messages were never answered. Will not bother again.
