Great tour - hits all of the big locations! - Great tour. Lucy, our guide, was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history of London and the monarchy. She was able to cover a lot of ground, while also giving us time for breaks with the kids. She was very helpful in navigating the Changing of the Guard, and knew just where to stand and what the best time was to see all of the places to avoid crowds.

MUST DO, YES YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!! - BEYOND INCREDIBLE!!!!! Wonderful, relaxing, rich, diverse experience seeing all of the highlights London has to offer in a private, relaxed tour with Denisa!!! The day one tours, depends on what you will experience - we toured on a FRIDAY which gave us front row seats to The Changing of the Guards, less crowds, and the ability to walk right into the Westminster Abbey, Tower of London, the Parks, everywhere! The great thing about this tour, and this tour guide - Denisa - is that our tour was curated to our tastes, what we wanted to do, what we wanted to see. I simply emailed Denisa indicating what we wanted to see, and she made it happen! We did not wait for tickets, she had them for us. We did not wait in lines, with her credentials, we were able to walk right in. It was a super fun day, everyone in our family learned so much from the tour, Denisa's expertise, and had an incredible time!!!! So worth it, if you have a half of day in London to tour!!!!!! Thank you so much, Denisa!!! You are AMAZING!!!! :) We had the BEST TIME because of you!!!!

Wonderful tour and wonderful guide!! - In all honesty this has been the best tour I've taken ever. Galina, our tour guide was wonderful!!! She was right on time, very knowledgeable, handled time perfectly, and was super nice. All the information provided was interesting and out of the box; even though she also knew the history behind the every monument and sight. We wanted to see a couple more places in the route that were not included in thenitinerary and Galina went out of her way to please us. She integrated my daughter to the conversations and was always attentive to her. Wonderful tour and wonderful guide!!!

Pro Tour Guides Make History Fun & Stress Free - Our day with Galena was wonderful. Her knowledge of history and the locations we visited is incredible. We started at Westminster Abbey where Galena made sure we saw everything important and guided us efficiently through the crowds. We took the tube and stopped at St. Paul’s which was a beautiful area with more history and stories. We enjoyed our tour of London Tower and Galena’s knowledge and storytelling kept us engaged all afternoon. Having a private tour with a knowledgeable guide is the way to go for these two historical sites. We would’ve been overwhelmed and wasted a lot of time on our own. Highly recommend!

VE Day in London - Ben did a fabulous job with our tour navigating multiple street closures due to VE Day celebrations. This was my husband’s first visit to London and he thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Though I had been to Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London decades ago - Ben’s expert knowledge made it a fresh experience with much more depth of meaning. Highly recommend this tour with Ben.
