Absolutely Fabulous! - Absolutely fabulous! Valerie is an amazing tour guide! She showed us ALL of the beautiful Christmas lights and even some not-so-well-known hidden gems. Her pace was perfect and she was very knowledgeable about the history of Christmas traditions in England! I highly recommend doing this tour with her! You won’t be disappointed!

Awesome Prince Albert stories - My wife booked it for our trip and it was an awesome tour! Even though I know a lot about Christmas traditions, I didn't know about Prince Albert and how he changed the course of Christmas history, so I am glad we came! Thank you Valerie and team!

Exceptional Details - We have been to London a few times before but never had a proper british christmas experience! Valery was awesome at sharing christmas traditions as well as helping me to get a christmas present to my daughter at one of the Queen Elizabeth favourite shops! Loved the little backyards with special christmas trees, thanks a lot

A lot of Christmas magic - Mr and Mrs Claus really know their stuff, a really fun cool tour with amazing people and a magical experience. I highly recommend this tour, we went with a small group of friends and had a blast. Found out the history from Christmas and how it really was saved. Then on to the best displays and some iconic locations, book and have a genuinely unique experience.

Christmas in London - This was an amazing tour. We learned a lot about the history of Christmas, saw Christmas trees all over London (some were hidden trees) and even learned where the Queen gets her chocolate, some current London culture, and saw a couple Harry Potter places too ❤️ we plan on doing another tour with her on our next visit!
