Outstanding tour of the Abbey with Anamaria - We did the Westminster Abbey tour and loved every bit of it. Anamaria, our guide, was amazing - knowledgeable, engaging and fun! I love doing tours like this but often I end up being distracted, this one was amazing! The Abby is incredible, this tour is a must-do in London!

Efficient and engaging! - We had a wonderful time on our tour. It was so nice to start with tea and croissants with our tour group, and get into the Abbey right away without waiting. Our tour guide, Zozo, was fantastic! He was so knowledgeable and could answer any question thrown his way. He made sure we saw all the best parts of the Abbey, navigated us through the crowds very efficiently, and was completely charming and engaging. It was such a great experience and I highly recommend it!

Very Imformative! - We really enjoyed the tour. You start with tea and croissants in the conservatory. We had a very knowledgeable tour director. Nice slow pace with lots of time to take in the amazing details of the Abbey. Arrive early and spend time in the gift dhop

Wonderful tour - This tour guide was so personable and knowledgeable. I enjoyed every minute of the tour. I have been visiting from Lo Angeles since October 16, and this is the most memorable excursion I have been on. I can’t recommend this guide enough. He is a true asset to your organization.

Great Tour and worth the extra $$$ - Frank, our guide, is very knowledgeable and did a great job. The coffee/tea service before we began the experience was pleasant. Very easy to identify our group when arriving. Pay the extra for the priority tour instead of being one of the many walking zombies with the head sets.

Disappointed in Westminster and Eye - First , there is no audio device to hear the guide. It is VERY crowded and if any hearing issues it’s difficult to understand. The guide himself was good and easy to understand if you are close and your hearing is good. Second, I purchased with The Eye option. The eye ticket didn’t “ appear” from Viator. I contacted “ customer service” and was advised to notify the operator when we joined the tour. I did and was told they have no record of the eye ticket. So, I would not say this was worth the $240 I was charged.
