Great tour of highlights of London! - My wife and I booked a tour with Chris for our visit to London. Had a great time. So knowledgable and friendly. We learned a lot and had a blast.

Exciting and helpful tour with Chris! - Chris was an absolute gem of a guide for myself and my fiancé. We navigated through some scheduling issues (due to my confusion) and he was patient and understanding throughout the communications. He led us through Greenpark, through Buckingham Palace, by Big Ben and Westminster Abbey, and we ended up at Trafalgar Square, which checked off all of our “wish list” spots. Chris was enlightening and knows SO much about British history, and weaved in some interesting tidbits about our personal interests. He provided us with advice for the rest of our trip, especially navigating the Eurostar and we couldn’t have left the tour more invigorated or appreciative!

Perfect London Tour - Anthony was a fantastic tour guide and story teller. We booked this tour early in our trip and Anthony gave us a long list of must-see sites. He also takes great pictures😊

A great start to our trip! - We met Anthony at Noon on our first full day in London and greatly enjoyed the 90 minute walking tour. Anthony had tons of great stories to share, tips of what to see and do, gave us a historical overview of some of the city's top take in's, and was a truly wonderful guide. He was fun and incredibly knowledgeable, and I can't recommend this walk enough. It was worth every penny (or pound!) spent, and I would absolutely do it again. Add this to your list of must do's, you won't regret it!

River Views and Government Buildings - We enjoyed our time walking with Chris. He provided a mix of information about the development of London as a city, from public works to architecture. The tour focused on sights along the Thames and the Houses of Parliament. We ended at Trafalgar Square with great recommendations on things to do for the rest of our visit.

Kickstart London Tour w/ Chris - Chris was very knowledgeable and was eager to tell the most minute details about the history of London. You can tell he's passionate about what he does. Communication all the way up until the day of the tour was good as well. The tour is definitely a little pricey for just one person so I would recommend to go as a group.

A great first day! - It’s our first trip to London. Anthony did a great job of introducing our group to the city! There were six of us of all ages (ages 13-73!), and he kept us all engaged with his stories and helpful tips. We would definitely book again!

Spent too much time... - Spent too much time asking about my visit instead of telling us about London. Seemed too shy to talk while I am taking photographs of the places we are touring. Tour seemed less informative for the price we paid.
