Syd’s Wedding Adventures - The history and story of Winston Churchill was amazing. I learned more about the man and the German Blitz on England then I ever knew. This was definitely worth seeing and have already bought to books to learn more about the war and the people that saved the world.

Wonderful, must see tour! - Great tour with a wonderful guide who provided lots of background information on not only Winston Churchill but also a lot of other London History and iconic landmarks. The war rooms are a must see with a great self guided audio tour and a visit into the Winston Churchill museum. Our tour guide Lee was fantastic and definitely made the tour amazing!

Do it. - Worth seeing the history and significance of that place. Also the tour guide before the war rooms was definitely worth going. Very knowledgeable and informative. As well as cheeky but in a very pleasant way.

Short on wwii too much about royalty - Was supposed to be a wwii walking tour but only talked about royalty. We were looking for more info about London during the war, the effect on the lives of the people and the destruction and rebirth

Dissapointing - Very large international company with tours in many cities and unfriendly customer service. If you are looking for something truly local I’d give this a pass.
