My husband and I did the Churchill tour yesterday. Wow! Our guide Geoff was a fountain of knowledge but we never felt bombarded with information. The tour is a wonderful walk through parts of London we would not otherwise have visited. The pace was excellent and suitable for anyone interested in History. Almost no stairs until you reach the War Rooms I learned so much from Geoff and would highly recommend this tour to anyone thinking about doing it. Thank you Geoff for the knowledge you shared - going to read my history again!
