Nice Tour of Westminster - We spent our Saturday afternoon walking through Westminster with Paul, our engaging tour guide. He told us stories and pointed out things we would have missed on our own. After the walking tour, he seamlessly handled our admission to the Churchill War Rooms. There were six people on the tour giving us all a more personal experience. Great job, Paul!

A trip back in time - Nathan made the tour interesting and memorable. His facility with historical facts was amazing. He also supplemented his talk with photos which really helped the presentation. The talk appealed to my husband who is a WWII history buff, but was equally interesting to me (and I don’t share his enthusiasm for this stuff). The war museum was great. It was well curated and well restored. We would both recommend it highly especially with Nathan in the lead

Excellent! - The tour was informative and interesting and our tour guide was awesome. I was most impressed because we were late and lost (totally my fault)and someone called to see where we were..talked me through walking through a very busy part of London and got is to the tour in time to see almost all of it with our group. Thank you so much!
