Great tour - Sue was very knowledgeable and personable, very enjoyable tour. If you use the address given with the booking you will end up in the Dean’s Yard, not in front of the gift store where you are supposed to meet.

Love nick - Nick is so full of interesting knowledge. It one thing to see historical items another to get a full understanding of the significance. His ability to keep a group moving along in a crowded room is the mark of a great guide. Thank you

Informative, interesting and quite enjoyable. - Our guide, Nick, was excellent and very informative. We truly enjoyed our time there. It was amazing at so many of the names of people honored or buried there, especially the Americans, which we didn't expect.

Brilliant tour - Brilliant guided tour of Houses of Parliament today by Victor. He had great knowledge which he delivered clearly and enthusiastically, and occasionally with a touch of humour. Thank you, Victor.

If with Amigo Tours, select another tour. - Purchased tickets for Westminster Abbey and Parliament. Local tour company Amigo Tours only had me down for the Abbey. Besides showing proof they did not allow me and my daughter to go to the Parliament because their office only showed one tour. Ruined our morning. Had to get a refund through Viator.

Horrible Experience- no show guide. - The guide sent an email the late the night before that the guide would be 45 minutes late. Day of the tour the guide never showed and we were not able to see inside the Westminster Abbey. Feels like a scam to me. Do not book with this tour operator.
