Definitely worth it. Paul was a great tour guide, full of information and witty too. Seeing parts of London that we hadn’t explored before was amazing! We’ve been to London loads but this tour brought us to little streets we hadn’t been to before. Highly recommend this tour.

An excellent tour around London our tour guide Rosie was very knowledgeable and really knew her facts. I would highly recommend this tour for people looking to learn a the secret stories of popular sites in London.

Rosie and the anecdotes as we walked along. Rosie, our tour guide, was a mine of information and had a lovely, comic way of describing historic events.

Angela_M

I learnt some very interesting facts about Cromwell and the Thames, gaslight fire marks etc. I also saw parts of Lindon I would not have gone to on my own

Great stories - fascinating facts I never knew even though I have been visiting London all my life. Well worth the very modest price.

Debbie N

Rosie was engaging, informed and funny. We were a group of four young adults and me (Mom). She shared so many interesting facts. The tour took us to places of interest not easily noticed, some of which were hiding in plain sight. We were also given the historical significance and details at each stop. Easy to walk, fun, and the perfect length of time.

Paul_D

Real live wire of a guide in Paul. Thanks. Enjoyed the history, details, delivery and pace of the tour. Love the lesser known subjects and stories. Myself and better half love walking around Lon Don and seeing the sites etc but doing this type of tour takes you to places you wouldn't normally go. Rather surreal passing other tours groups doing the same / parallel tours, a bit of a 'Sean of The Dead' vibe 😂😅🤣. Highly recommended 👌 👍 👏

Excellent tour learning about things that are hidden up alleys and in corners of London usually unseen. Really entertaining. Our guide Rachel was fab.
