Fun and Interesting - A very fun tour when I got to learn a lot of London facts. My favorite was probably the lamp powdered by sewer gas. I also went back to a lot of the stores shown during the tour.

City of theatres and parks. - The views are amazing, the buildings are beautiful and huge. The shops are great. The parks are wonderful. A big and beautiful city. Big Ben, ah, Big Ben. I only see to see how beautiful it is and its representation in that place. It is worth visiting London, a special city.

Highly recommended - It was my 2nd time in London, so I wanted to explore parts other than the main attractions. This tour was exactly that! The 1.5 hours by fast that I was surprised and disappointed it was over. Our tour guide was also great - engaging and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Great and Quirky London History Tour. Highly Recommend! - Great tour!!! Saw out of the way and a bit quirky sites we would have never seen on our own. The tour guide was appropriately funny and made sure everyone on the tour was engaged. Being seniors our energy isn’t what it used to be but the pace was such that we readily stayed with the group. Tour guide ( so sorry I don’t remember his name - another senior thing😊) was right where and when we agreed upon meeting. Perfect sized group! Highly recommend if you want to see some great London history.

See a part of central London unknown by most - Excellent walking tour full of interesting little known facts. The majority of Londoners have probably never heard these stories. Guide had a strong voice. With clear diction.
