Be prepared to walk at a leisurely pace for 4-5 hours. Make sure your camera/phone is fully charged. Tons of great photo opportunities. Do a little research on the line of Kings and Queens, it will make the day easier to understand all the incredible history.

Our tour guide, Dan Richardson ensured the comfort and safety of all guests, while performing an informative and interesting tour Of stunning Westminster Abby, The Tower of London, and the surrounding history of the entire area. Fascinating to learn and see where the Royals have coronations and the impeccable crown jewels. He was expertly prepared for entrance tickets, when required. During a sudden down pour, he was able to rearrange tour stops to keep the group dry. His professionalism and kind attention to our group was immeasurable.

Our guide made history live. The facts, poetry, anecdotes, brought life and context to what we were seeing. Our guide brought the what, who and why with humour, while bringing us along smartly

Anna Maria (the tour guide) was very knowledgeable. We didn’t ask a question she couldn’t answer. However, she was soft spoken and with all of the surrounding ambient noise, it was often very difficult to hear her.
