Our guide Adrian was excellent. He had good historical knowledge and a great sense of humour. Highly recommend touring with him.

Bella_S

Great tour including boat trip, our guide was very helpful & knowledgable, got a lot more out of it than if we'd done Tower of London without a guide, very glad we did this.

Michael_G

Guide only took us to some of the buildings and spent to much time standing in one or two places and not showing us everything in the Tower of London. We stood in one place for quite a bit of time so we could view the Tower Bridge opening, which it never did. Not what I went to the Tower of London to do.

Andrea_S

Personable and knowledgeable guide. Kept us moving. The addition of the Thames river cruise enhanced the adventure.

Bianca_H

Our tour guide Ari (Ariana) was outstanding! She was very friendly and knowledgeable and made the entire tour that much more enjoyable! Would highly recommend !
