Excellent Westminster Tour - OK Holmes Museum visit - Our guide Will was excellent for the Westminster tour, showing us the perfect time and place to take pictures and video of the band during the changing of the guard. He also gave us a lot of British history. The Holmes tour was just a ticket for admission to the museum and a brief narration by the staff there.

Great Walking Tour of Westminster! - The tour was excellent! We heard information and got close up looks at things we had not seen even though we had been in London for over a week. Mark was an excellent guide and very informative. He made the history come alive. He was great at having the group where we could take the best photos. It was a wonderful experience.

Fun tour (even in the rain) - Our guide Jason did an admirable job leading a group of 15 wide eyed tourists for 3 hours through a downpour (sort of provided the quintessential London experience of carrying on in the rain). We saw Buckingham Palace, various marching guard units, and other iconic locations. Didn't make it to the Sherlock Holmes Museum, so can't comment on it.

Covers many places, Sherlock’s Holmes Museum - It covers numerous places of interest. Be sure to ask for your tickets for the Sherlock Holmes museum. The walking tour really doesn’t cover anything pertaining to Sherlock Holmes.

Very knowledgeable tour guide - Fun tour with Ashley as our tour guide very informative. Covered a lot of sites and we saw the king! I am traveling with my 15 year old son and we both enjoyed the tour. You walk for 3 hours so be prepared with water and good walking shoes!

No help getting to the Museum after the walking tour. - The Sherlock Holmes tour seemed to be an afterthought. The walking tour was great! But after three hours of walking around London I was dropped off at a Tube Station and to told which Line to take and what station to get off and that was it! Not which way to go after arriving at the station or which signs to look for in the station. I thankful the residents of London are friendly and helpful. It was very stressful trying to find my way to the Museum.
