Fantastic guide and tour! - Our guide Jeremy was amazing. He made our walking tour come to life. He was knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor and we would request him again!!!
He dropped us at the Churchill War Room tour which is self guided and got us checked in and ensured we had our audio device and some highlights to look for.

Outstanding tour - David was a fantastic guide. He was engaging, funny and incredibly informative. He even managed to impress my father, who has an encyclopedic knowledge of Churchill. The tour was the perfect introduction to the life, times and London of Churchill before entering the War Rooms. I highly reccommend it.
