What To Expect
Mayfair
This part of the tour focuses on the young, ambitious, war hero and bachelor Winston Churchill, keen to make a mark in the world. We will visit his Bachelor pad, and the home he set up with his Wife Clementine, plus a visit to some of his favourite tailors. You will also have time to pose with Churchill and Roosevelt at the Allies Statue.
This historic Saville Row Tailor has had a long association with the Churchill family. They made suits for Winston's father Randolph, and many for Winston throughout his life. (They produced the famous Pinstripe Suit in the Tommy Gun photo of Churchill.) Apparently Winston Churchill still owes the company some money, and the Tailors would always find Cigar Stubs in the pockets when suits came in for alterations. Recently Henry Poole and Co were called upon to make Gary Oldman's suits for the movie The Darkest Hour.

A Great Experience — Would Highly Recommend!

5.00Definitely one of the highlights of our week in London/UK was the private Behind the Scenes Tour at the Churchill Museum that was apparently conducted by a professional guide who worked there. Wish I’d gotten his name — a very distinguished-looking chap who was one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. A couple of us had visited Churchill’s War Rooms before, on our own, but this man knew so much & was so interesting — definitely 5-star-plus!
Spending a few hours...

5.00Spending a few hours walking around Mayfair brought to life many of Churchill's key moments. Learning more about him in this way revealed so much more about the man than books or movies could. This helped make our time in the War Rooms even more meaningful.
Wonderful Winston

5.00There is so much incredible information and so much history to be learned. All the visual items really make it so you can’t forget what you’re learning. The actual bunker is so cool. I would love to have had a couple more hours to have spent.
Great guide Richard!

5.00Richard was an outstanding guide with an encyclopedic knowledge of all things Churchill and many other bits of history covering a wide range of topics. The tour is a little fast-paced, but not strenuous. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in Winston Churchill or British history.
