Gave us an opportunity to explore the charming Nottinghill with interesting facts we would not have learned otherwise
It was difficult to activate the app. Find the starting point. And to re-enter the app at a stopover. We have continued on our own
As a regular person that visits London I really wanted to go to Notting Hill when the carnival wasn’t on. What an amazing place and great tour. I grabbed a Starbucks and took in the sights. The tour was very informative and covered a variety of area. The market was on as it was a Sunday, so I walked down that and then got back on to the route to finish the tour. Would recommend to locals and tourists! Evening going to bring my family back to do again! Well done and thank you for an amazing morning!
I was unable to access the app and couldn’t get any help to sort the problem out. So didn’t get the chance to use it Link did not work

Great little walking tour. Download before you leave your flat and turn on allow GPS and it automatically pops on at each stop! Really enjoyed the walk as we went some out of the way stops you’d miss on your own.
Excellent self walking tour, with the gps on it would tell me the points of interest and a story behind it. Notting Hill is beautiful with all its old Georgian coloured Homes.
This app-guided tour kept our entire family engaged throughout our Notting Hill walk. The kids enjoyed the spotting filming locations from their favorite movie. As parents, we appreciated the interesting facts and the ability to explore at our own pace.

As a solo traveler, this app was like having a knowledgeable local friend showing me around. The historical tidbits and insider tips about cafes and shops were fantastic. I felt safe and confident exploring the area, thanks to the clear directions and offline map feature.
This app-guided tour of Notting Hill was the highlight of our London trip. We loved discovering the colorful houses, quaint bookshops, and hidden mews at our own pace. The app's movie location trivia added a fun element to our walk. Highly recommend for any rom-com fans!
