Wonderful experience with the family - Galina is such a wonderful guide. We really enjoyed our tour of three hours in The Tower. Galina knew so much. She also knew all the perfect places to make the most beautiful pictures. The highlight of the tour were the crowne jewels. Really impressive. This tour is really worth doing.

Thorough Tour! - The three hour of the Tower of London and the Crown Jewels was great. So much history explained in detail! Being in the towers like walking back in time. Our family of five (3 kids age 7- 14) really enjoyed it. It is three full hours but many opportunities to get a snack at the cafe if needed.

Tower of London with Galina - Galina was our tour guide and she was absolutely awesome. So full of energy and enthusiasm for everything the Tower of London represents. Unbelievable what a wealth of information she was. It was very obvious that she loves giving the tour and never tires of the history. She was super patient with my friend who was suffering a bit with a bad back and a bit slower than he would have liked. She also recommended the Hung, Drawn and Quartered British Pub (menu pictured) for lunch and she was spot on. Perfect British Pub. She was also so kind to walk us there at end of our tour. Galina deserves more than 5 stars.

Knowledgeable and friendly - Really enjoyed Galina's tour. We had a mix of us who were first timers to London, and some who know London well. She deftly managed sharing exactly the information necessary and was lovely to spend time with.

Tower of London Private Tour with Galina - Our visit to the Tower of London with Galina as our private guide was absolutely unforgettable! Her deep knowledge and storytelling brought the history of the Tower to life. Highlights of our day included walking the ancient walls, exploring some of the Towers, and marveling at the Crown Jewels without feeling rushed. Galina's personalized attention, fun facts, and ability to answer all our questions made the experience both engaging and memorable. She pointed out hidden details that we would have missed on our own. If you’re visiting the Tower of London, a private tour with Galina is a must—highly recommended!!
