Oliver was knowledgeable, personable, and helpful. He answered our questions patiently. Despite having to deal with unexpected detours due to a race the next day, he continued cheerfully and professionally.

Danny is a very lovely guide. Accommodating to needs (bathroom, coffee, suggestions for good food). You can tell his love for his city through his wealth of knowledge.

A guide to be younger and more enthusiastic

The whole tour was good but not great for the money spent. Our tour guide around the mall was knowledgeable but a bit off putting with a cold. Palace was beautiful. We would have enjoyed more rooms, ie kitchen, which likely is just not available. It is a home, after all.

Christopher was a nice guy that mixed his know-how with an entertaining manner. We liked the tour very much. It would have been a plus if he had joined Buckingham Palace tour as well.

Amazing tour!!! Our guide Angie was very knowledgeable, funny and passionate about the Royal history and information. We loved the walking portion of the tour and then of course, Buckingham!!

Fantastic seeing Buckingham Palace State rooms. Well organised. Make sure you have booked in advance. Talk beforehand was interesting but not necessarily worth it

After several visits to London before, the Tour Guide Danny showed us areas of huge history, we've not been before - great!
