Great value for money - The bridge is beautiful and a must see in London. A guided tour throughout the exhibition, the engine room and the glass walkways is the best experience. I really enjoyed the boat ride on the Thames. It was really relaxing and fun way to arrive to Westminster.

Nice Way to Get Acquainted with the City - We enjoyed this tour as an intro to London. Our tour guide highlighted all of the important items to see in the Tower. Although we did not enter into the lookout portion of the London Bridge, we did venture across and walked to an open air market for lunch.

The best of the Tower of London - Amber was a fantastic guide. We had to pivot on the morning of our tour as the Tower opening time was changed. Amber created an itinerary to keep us engaged and entertained until the Tower opened. She was full of information about the history, with a lot of facts that we didn't know. I really liked that we weren't on headsets, we would get to a certain exhibit, like the crown jewels, and , after a bit of info, went on our own, and met again after we explored on our own. I was a great time!

Awful experience - We got to the meeting point 45” earlier and send a text to confirmed the location. They sent us to another location and then said sorry for not updating in time the new location. They sent us back to the previous location and at the end we lost the whole entire tour and haven’t received our money back! Awful experience!
