Very informative and entertaining

Published on Feb, 2025

Our tour guide, Katia was very informative with a very impressive knowledge of British history and all the areas and building she took us to . She kept us fully entertained for the whole of the two hours and I would thoroughly recommend going on this tour.

The changing of the guard.

Published on Jan, 2025

This was an easy and illuminating way to enjoy the changing of the guard at St James Palace and a tour of various royal palaces and political buildings. Our tour guide Yasmin was engaging, informative and considerate.

Great Tour of the day

Published on Jan, 2025

Yassin is a great guide for our tour today. He is friendly and humerous. We enjoyed our tour with him. He is definitely recommended as a tour guide. Thank you.

Absolutely worth it!

Published on Jan, 2025

Yasin was our tour guide, and he was the absolute best! He was able to get us in the best spots to see the changing of the guards and protected us from pickpockets. He also took pictures for everyone in the group in front of Buckingham Palace which was really kind. The only recommendation I have is I wish he would have talked more about the history of London as a whole, the history of some of the building we walked past, etc. It was a really neat tour and I loved how quickly we were walking, but I don't feel like I came out any more educated on anything we passed.
