We did this tour on our first day in the city, and it gave us a chance to see and learn so much! Our guide Carolina was very informative and shared fun facts, pointed out photo ops and gave suggestions on other things to do during our stay. We were a little worried when we registered for the tour about all the walking, but the pace was easy and we stopped often to look and listen. The tour exceeded our expectations and made the rest of our visit easier.

Let me start out by saying that this is a walking tour. It is not a hard walk, nor a quick walk. There are so many stops along the way you never feel fatiqued. We loved this walking tour of London. It was a great way to get the lay of the land and recommendations of other things that we should be doing and seeing in the great city of London. Greg was our tour guide and he was absolutely wonderful. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and his stories were captivating. I highly recommend this to all that are visiting London. He was full of fun stories about all the places we saw. One item that is notable is that we were here on the weekend of the London marathon and numerous streets were closed. Greg was able to navigate the streets and find alternative routes so that we didn’t miss a thing. Thank you Greg!!!!!
