Walks always does a great job! I strongly recommend Walks to anyone traveling to be educated, entertained and enlightened! Our meeting place was easy to get to. The start of the tour was well managed. It is important to note, Westminster is the Vatican of London - super crowded! A lot to see but the crowds and the push to keep moving makes that difficult. There were loads of lines to queue up in. The unexpected closing the day before and the afternoon of our tour made the lines extra-long and the lack of air movement unpleasant. We spent a good chunk of time waiting and doing head counts. Having said that, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and shared insights that enhanced our experience. The Jubilee Room is well worth the 300 stairs and the view is not to be missed. I am glad we did the tour, but there are much more enjoyable things to do while in London.

Rosie made this tour very doable. She had us where we needed to be, when we needed to be there. She was providing facts and interesting history the entire time. Westminster Abbey was fantabulous. We would have been overwhelmed without her guidance. It was so much more enjoyable with a guide. She provided a lot of detail and perspective that wasnt available otherwise.
