    Darryl is a fantastic guide! He showed us hidden corners of London we’d never have found on our own and really took the time to tailor the tour to our interests. It felt personal, relaxed, and full of little surprises. A great experience — thank you, Darryl!

    Becky was wonderful! She tailored our tour wonderfully based on the details we provided. She knew an amazing amount of each of the locations we visited and was super fun as well. Her tour was worth every penny.

    We had a wonderful day with Becky our tour guide. She was a joy to be around and took us all over London. We were able to see all the main spots and showed us some hidden spots. It felt more like hanging out with a friend than a tour. I highly recommend this tour and specifically Becky. Thanks
