It was amazing. little girls first time in London & she absolutely loved it. Would be better if the transports ran a little later, so much to do & see in London, would be nice to be there longer as did feel a little rushed. Just means we have come back again 😁

Great tour and guide! We did so much and walked to entire city! (It felt that way, anyway) loved seeing the scenes from the movie on our guide’s phone when we got to the different filming locations

The guide Florian was great, he made us participate 100%. The tour is calm, nothing stressful but at the same time fun and full of interesting information. I highly recommend it.

I took a photo shoot at Covent Garden and I got very nice pictures. Love it

Good guide. The group has a lot of fun and nice people!
