A must do tour in your arrival to London! - Simon was absolutely amazing! It was like touring London with a comedian. We had such a fun and saw all of the sites and more we didn’t even know existed. It also helped us get our bearings as we did the tour the same day arriving in London. Simon provided important dos and donts while here too. A must on your arrival to London.

Highly recommended - Simon was an awesome tour guide, we couldn’t ask for more! He was very patient with my mom and dad (in their 80s). Very knowledgeable and detailed. Knows the ins and outs of the places we went to. His tour will please your sight, smell, hearing, touch and taste. A feast for the senses! We’re glad we did this. Highly recommended!

Absolute perfection! - Look no further. Simon was the best tour guide we’ve had in London. Just did a quick 3-hour tour but it was packed with great historical information and anecdotes. He took us to all the major sites and told fabulous stories. Timely and courteous and very funny! Worth every penny!
