Janina was bubbly and very engaging for our kids! She made the history of the Tower of London exciting and fun. Highly recommend!

Kyle_P

Janina was amazing! She was so kind, knowledgeable, and spoke over 6 languages! The company that sent her went above and beyond for an amazing experience for my husband and I. I would 1000 percent recommend Janina and her company for any and all travelers. We want to bring our children back to London so they can learn from her brilliance as well!

If I hadn’t prepaid I would have walked away within 5 minutes of the start of our tour. She started off by stating it was a two hour tour until I reminded her it wasn’t. She brushed aside my comment. Our tour guide just started in giving us random facts about the Tower never asking us what we wanted to learn or discover. She had a set speech in mind whether we were interested or not. She ignored our questions. Kept talking when we were obviously trying to read something or trying to ask our questions. Just rude. Repeated, inappropriate personal opinions about Arab sheik money invading London; the current generation and their views on LGTBQ+ and sexist comments made towards me (male). I have been traveling around the world for 35 years and this had to be one of the top 5% wastes of money when it comes to tours. Shameful. She was knowledgeable but disconnected, arrogant, condescending and could not care less about whether we had a good tour. She did her thing and got paid. This is the first time EVER that I didn’t tip a guide. This was my partner’s birthday. As well as her first full day ever in London. A terrible disappointment. Do yourself a favor and book another tour or just listen to the beefeaters and save your money. Oh and she badmouthed her own tour owners/managers. You can read my reviews. I very very rarely post a bad one but I do not want others to experience the same disappointment or incredibly unprofessional guide.

Paul our guide was excellent, but due to recent restrictions placed on Viator he was not able to join us inside either of the buildings for our Tower of London tour. This was very disappointing and we should have been notified ahead of time and the price of our tour should have been adjusted accordingly.

Francisco_D

Very knowledgeable guide. No need to spend the time to go with the guide to the Tower Bridge, The bridge is literally right there In front of the tower better spending time exploring the power in the history behind

Private tours in London on the way to go. If you have anything that you are really excited to see that might have really long lines just spend the extra money and booked us because you will be thankful later. Some of the lines to get in to see the crown jewels and other attractions were so knowledgeably long that we were really glad that we did this

Tower Bridge, London, UK :- It can transport you to Victorian London, telling the story of the city’s defining landmark from the very beginning. One can observe, architecture and engineering, watch city life unfold in panorama from its high-level Walkways and Glass Floors. During the visit you’ll even get to experience the magic of a Bridge Lift beneath your feet. Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London.Taking photographs of the Tower bridge is a favorite London tourist activity, but you can also go inside the bridge, where you'll have a magnificent view over London from the walkway between the two bridge towers. Inside the bridge is the Tower bridge Exhibition, a display area that encompasses the walkway and the two famous towers where you can observe the Victorian engine room. The bridge is movable. The large vessels, Cruises going to Thames river, can cross the bridge after pulling two parts of bridge in upward direction. Near about 48,000 people cross Tower Bridge each day.

Our guide Anthony was on time and knew so much. He was able to answer all our questions. I would’ve rated this 5 stars but for the fact it was almost double the cost of our Barcelona private tour 1 week prior.
