My wife and I had booked this tour as part of our first visit to London, and it was our favourite tour of them all. We are both fans of the Sherlock television show, as well as Sherlock Holmes in general. However, it was our guide, Chris, and our driver, Tony, who made the tour go from good to great. I would recommend anyone taking this tour request Chris and Tony for a fabulous time.
The locations we visited were great, and Chris added a nice touch of having a photo deck of each location that he would bring to the location. He provided the video clips prior to our walking to the sites, but the additional photo deck allowed us to get a picture of it and then the location itself. A very nice touch. His information was extremely detailed, and we found ourselves learning quite a bit more than we thought we knew. And it was presented in an entertaining fashion. In addition to the Sherlock information, he and Tony had information about other sites along the way as well. For example, when we were at St. Barts, we were not aware we were also standing next to the secret entrance to MI5 from Skyfall until Chris pointed it out to us. And ending the tour at Speedy's was the icing on the cake. It was touches like this by Chris and Tony that made this tour excellent!
