5.00Tour on your own but you have a headphone to guide you through the experience. It’s walking tour at your own pace. Not crowded and there are guides who can answer questions.
Great tour

5.00Must see if you’re in this area of London. The audio guide was very helpful and I was able to wander around at my own pace. I highly recommend this self guided tour.
