Highly recommended. Excellent tour - We took the Tower of London tour with my daughter. It is the best tour I have ever been on. The history is amazing and Galina is an excellent story teller. I loved the interesting facts about the crown jewels. Galina has a briliant sence of humour and we will remember that sunny day. My teen daughter found the tour very entertaining. Galina is very good at tailoring her stories for different audiences so that everybody learns about things they are interested in. We had so much fun. I highly recommend this walking tour.

Wonderful day at the Tower of London - Our guide took wonderful care of us and gave us such a rich storyline that was easy to follow and very interesting to listen to. It was easy to see that she truly loves the tower of London and loves to share it with others.

Incredible - The tour was incredible. I visited with my nine year old son. Our tour guide was Mehru. We could not have had a better tour guide. She knew her history and facts and was amazing with my kid. I strongly recommend her.. especially if you are visiting with kids.

The BEST tour guide and a fascinating private tour - What an amazing private tour! Galina was so warm and friendly, knew the history of the Tower backwards and forwards (and we asked lots of questions!), and knew how to navigate the site to maximize our time there. Fascinating history tailored to our specific interests. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend this Tower of London tour - Galiana was very knowledgeable about the history of the Tower of London. She made sure we took some breaks in the cafeteria to warm up as it was very cold. She was great with our 12yr old granddaughter and was able to ask her questions and answer her questions so that she was fully engaged. She very kindly brought a "tiara" for the "little princess", which was a lovely touch. Would highly recommend Galiana, especially if there are children in your party
