The tour was amazing our guide (Will) really made it. Will knew his history and really made the tour
Kevin was a fabulous tour guide. He was prompt, knowledgeable and very fun. He taught us so much about his city and we learned many interesting facts and tips. It was a great day and and one that we will remember with fond memories. Thank you Kevin!!
I had the best tour guide - Kevin. Will definitely recommend him to anyone who is trying to do this trip.
Stephen my guide was just great !
Stephen the guide was very knowledgeable, friendly, and walked at a good pace for me. He allowed ample time to take pictures, and provided a lot of history about London. I could tell he enjoys his job. He texted me 3 days before to confirm the tour, which I REALLY appreciated. It helped ease my mind to know that the tour was a go. I also liked that the tour started at the hotel, and at the end he pointed me in the right direction to Harrod's, which was perfect timing to enjoy lunch at Harrod's. It's a really good walking tour, so wear comfy shoes, I put on 20,261 steps 8.2 miles that day! Thank you Stephen Ye Olde England Tours!
