Fun Guide & Interesting Guided Tour - Our guide was knowledgeable and fun, we saw several sights we would have otherwise missed. Would recommend and also add the Churchill museum on the end. Worth it.

Chirchill - It was a surprise for my husband and my son and sin in law joined him. They all said it was one of the best parts of the trip. They added Churchill on after and that was the part they enjoyed most.

Awesome - "I had a fantastic experience on the London walking tour. The guide was incredibly helpful and engaging, making the tour both informative and enjoyable. They provided excellent insights into the area's history, culture, and hidden gems, which added so much depth to the experience. It was a perfect way to explore the city on foot and learn things I might have missed otherwise. Highly recommend for anyone looking to discover London in a unique and memorable way!"

Extremely Disappointed in tour & communication - The title is incredibly misleading. Yes if you read it in very fine print detail, you can see that you do not get a tour of the INSIDE of these attractions (House of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, etc..., but you really have to read in great detail. The time allotted at each place is also not closely monitored. While the tour was suppose to end at the House of Parliament, we had rushed through the first several attractions so much that we would've ended very early, so Kim took us to the London Bridge. However being at the London Bridge, took us further away from the Churchill War Rooms. Then we had a terrible problem with the Churchill War Rooms. We were given tickets by Top Sight Tours (our guide Kim) at the beginning of the walking tours, but when we arrived at the War Rooms, we were turned away because they were 3rd party tickets that were not valid. We were told if we want to get in we would have to pay for admission tickets through their ticket booth. When tried to contact Top Sight Tours, we got a recording to send an email, but no option to speak with a human being. We reached out to Viator and we were told that the tour company needed to deal with this. According to the 3*, 2*, and 1* reviews for this tour, this issues seem to be a theme.
