This was a fascinating tour where u can spend hours. The tour of the war rooms alone was about 90 minutes but u can easily spend a few more hours on ur own to really take in the importance of the facility. Guy was an amazing guide who shared fun stories and lots of trivia. Having only 8 in our group made for an awesome experience.
Best tour of the week. ...

Best tour of the week. Knowledgeable, interesting and funny guide. Glad we had a guide rather than reading everything.

We couldn’t have asked for a more entertaining and informative tour with our terrific guide, Laurence. He brought to life this challenging time in history and helped us appreciate Winston Churchill and the role he played in British history. I had visited the Cabinet War rooms before but this was a whole new experience!
Great tour with Laurence

Guy was fun, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. This is a great tour to take either as a private tour or with a group. The war rooms were so interesting and fun to see. The only thing was I wish we could've spent more time in the museum.

Sheldon was excellent. A wealth of knowledge about the Churchill family, and very tentative and patient. Loves what he does. Passes in that enthusiasm. Fun to be with.
