Kate was on time and friendly from the start. She reviewed what we would see and how our time would be used. She achieved two objectives: to humanize Churchill and to overview the losses and challenges of Londoners during WW 2. Couldnt ask more from a tour guide!! Would recommend her to any of my friends interested in a walking tour.

This tour was fantastic and Stephen was great. We did this tour the day we arrived and it was a great way to see some of the city, learn about London - and specifically Churchill, and set up for the rest of our trip. Definitely would recommend and take other tours with Walks.

I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in WWII history. Salvatore was so enthusiastic about the subject and answered all our questions. Also, even though we had a very small group, they did not cancel. You can count on the tour going on as planned.
