The worst thing that happened in my life, there was no one at the meeting point and we were left to go around to see if we found anyone and nothing, the phone no one picked up, and on top of that till today no one talks about returning money. I hope there won't be any complaints because I feel like I'm being teased

Never took the tour. Cancelled the tour before the 24 hours and the operator refused my request for a refund.
Took the far superior Freddie Mercury and Queen tour which left from the same spot a half hour later.

Tour was great! My husband is a big Queen fan so I tagged along with him. But I loved hearing how the band was formed, all the places the band used to work and play and got to see a lot of Kensington in the process!
