Very interesting tour and great guide.

Marvin was a great tour guide. He looked after the group and was very engaging. Lots of humor in his very interesting tales. Not too much walking, but comfortable shoes required for sure. Only downside: I was expecting a boat trip as part of this. Instead we each had to pay for an additional underground trip.

Kid Friendly Tour

Tom shared quite a bit of London's darker history, while keeping the tour very kid friendly. While the tour was good, I think people booking should know: - There isn't a boat tour. - Be prepared to use the tube, so have a travel card or credit card handy. - Our tour included climbing stairs; we had a woman in our group with mobility issues and she had difficulty navigating them - The end location was at Tower Hill. - The tour ended just short of two hours.
