Along the way, you'll hear gripping stories of the British people's resilience and Churchill's defining leadership.

Pouring rain didn’t stop this guide nor the interest and the subject!
Published on Sep, 2024
Judd was excellent! He knew his history of Winston and of England. He was a storyteller of history, understanding all the little quirks, success, failures of Winston Churchill, He was real and made a big difference in World War III and much more. It was pouring rain, but he made it work so well finding cover while he told stories and making it work I would not have canceled even spite the rain

Susanna was a fantastic guide! So beneficial to walk the streets and learn about Churchill as a person prior to visiting the War Room. Definitely worth it!
