This was a fantastic half day tour. We had a variety of age ranges (18 - 81) with some mobility challenges, Greg made it easy for the entire group to participate. Based upon the location of our hotel, we started with the Medieval and worked our way back to Roman times. Greg's knowledge of London's history is broad and deep. The Temple of Mirtha 'experience' was amazing. If you are interested in the Roman history of London, our entire party recommends this tour. Additionally we whole heartedly recommend Greg!

Great tour of the Roman wall, the sundial, and the George. Guide Mark was really good, listened to my interests and adapted well as we went along. Lots of great things I hadn’t seen before in London.
