Highly recommend

We had Amanda take us on our tour. It was an amazing experience. Having it be a personal tour for our family made it great since it allowed us to linger at places where we wanted to stay longer. We were able to see more of the horseman kings guard and their practice. Amanda made it great and would highly recommend.

Phenomenal Tour with Greg...Ten out of Ten!

We did a private tour with Greg. He was an absolute rock star! On a crowded and complicated day (lots of official visits from dignitaries) in London, Greg was so flexible and knowledgeable that we didn't skip a beat and still got to see everything that was planned. Best of all was the stories...many tours guides have the knowledge, but the ability to spin it into an engaging story for tweens and adults alike is a gift. The day felt more like a great conversation than a tour. So, we would highly recommend this tour company, but especially Greg, who was funny, engaging and whip smart about London (and world) history...and made it extremely fun for my family. ONe great sign of success is that at the completion of the 3 hour tour, my 12 year-old son said, "that was 3 hours? It was so fun it felt much shorter." One final note...Greg is so knowledgeable and engaging that I am sure he makes people from any corner of the globe feel connected, but I would say that if you are Irish or have a tie to your Irish heritage, Greg is especially well versed....and for our group that was particularly appreciated.

London's Amazing Palaces & Parliament

The guide was so knowledgeable and friendly. Three hours sounded long but while doing it, it felt like 1 hour. The guide took us all over town and went above and beyond by modifying the tour plans to fit the group. We all had an excellent time.

Informative and well-run tour

Everything I could ask for in a tour. Knowledgeable and engaging tour guide, friendly fellow tourists, and of course Westminster makes for an amazing backdrop. I highly recommend this tour as a way to see a bunch of “must-sees” in only three hours.

Stephen was great and very knowledgeable.

We booked Stephen through Geoff the owner for a private 5 hour walking tour and he did not disappoint. I must say we got off to a rough start as I had some stomach issues that needed to addressed as soon as we started our day. Stephen went above and beyond helping caring for me and knowing exactly where to do and what to do to resolve this problem immediately. After about 30 minutes and feeling much better off we went on a very informative jam packed fun filled day. Stephen knew his stuff and we never had 1 second of awkward silence as he kept giving us full of fun facts and tales. I Highly recommend Hiring these guys for a private tour as it was well worth the money....Be ready to walk!
