Published on Dec, 2024

We had a great experience as a family on this tour. We enjoyed doing it at our own pace and it showed us a lot of things we wouldn't have found by ourselves. The kids loved the challenges and the weird and wonderful facts. The challenges at the Horse Guards were specially unexpected and the most fun for our kids. Definitely do this if you're in London with children.
