London can be a very crowded city with many things to see. Andreea did a wonderful job of making sure we saw the best of the sights and at the same time avoided many of the crowds. When we travel abroad we like to explore cities at a slower to moderate pace. During our time with Andreea she adjusted and we walked and used the Tube to maximize our coverage of the city's sights. She has a wealth of knowledge to share and we recommend Andreea for your visit to London.

We are a family of 5 with 3 young adults/teenagers which were visiting first time in London. The tour with Tom was a great introduction to London, its history and culture. Tom is very knowledgeable and is indeed a great storyteller. He adds interesting anecdotes and fun facts and keep his audience engaged. We highly recommend the tour with Tom!

We had the pleasure of going on a private tour of London with Tom. The depth and wealth of his knowledge about this wonderful city is matched only by his enthusiasm in telling it! You can’t go wrong with hiring Tom as your guide. He will customize the tour to your specific interests and you won’t be disappointed!

Tom was very knowledgeable and a great tour guide. He knows his history! He even brought along his iPad to show us pictures of what some of these buildings use to look like which really added to our experience. We learned a lot that day. He also made our tour fun with pop culture history of the areas we visited. Overall very fun learning and walking. Had a blast!

Anthony was wonderful! I was on a short timeline as I was on an 8 hr layover in between flights. Anthony helped me with advice on navigating to the city from the airport. Once there we crammed in a LOT in a short amount of time as we explored the sites. He’s a wealth of knowledge, takes great pictures, knows the best food spots and was fun to hang out with. Great experience and highly recommended!

We had a great time with Anthony. He is very knowledgeable, and went out of his way to make sure that we got great pictures. He had special sites and places we went that were off the beaten track, which is exactly what we were looking for- we could never have gotten this experience without him to guide us.

Our guide never showed up. We weren’t able to reach anyone at any of the numbers we were given. Very disappointing.
