Kevin is the best! - I had such an amazing experience on this tour! It’s a must do in London for anyone who wants a bit of history and a pint. Also, it’s worth saying I felt so comfortable as a solo traveler. Kevin made this experience unforgettable. It was such a pleasure to meet him and I made friends along the way, thank you!
