5.00Our guide, Dan, was a wealth of knowledge about the kings & queen’s of Great Britain. The walk through Westminster was leisurely paced with great information about the architecture and personalities of the original owners of the houses and palaces. We saw Buckingham Palace and Big Ben and Parliament. The tour ended at Churchill’s war museum which was fascinating.
Private Tour with Charlotte was spectacular!

5.00Best time spent walking around Westminster area with Charlotte Harwood as our private guide. She is an exceptionally knowledgeable historian who taught us so much about the parks, the buildings, history, traditions & the monarchy. The best part about having Charlotte as our guide was that she was friendly, kind and engaging. We really felt like we were hanging out with a friend all day. This was the best way to learn about the heart of London on our first full day of our trip. She gave excellent recommendations about what else to do during our stay. We highly recommend booking this tour. Thank you!!

5.00This was a great walking tour of the Westminster area. Dan was super knowledgable of both the history and architecture of the area. We learned and saw lots of things that we wouldn't have on our own.

5.00Freud's house was where he spent the last years of his life, it is impeccable, it is exciting to see the history of psychoanalysis materializing in photos, objects and personal family collections, for someone like me who is a psychologist it is a must-see when in London !!
BAD TIMING!!!!!

4.00The tour was very good EXCEPT timing was awful. We were told that we would tour and be delivered to the war rooms in time for entrance. Instead we were dropped off OVER and hour BEFORE our scheduled tour!!! Why did we have to begin at 11:00 if entrance wasn’t till 2:30?!?!?! My husband who is 85 was not in a position to sit on a stoop for an hour waiting to get in. We had to leave and never go into the war rooms which was the whole purpose for the trip! I think we should be refunded at least the price of the tickets!
Very Disappointed Ticket would not work

1.00Very Disappointed as the War Room would not honor the Viator bar code. WE NEVER GOT IN CHURCHILL WAR ROOM. They looked at every trip advisor email you sent me. They downloaded all you sent. No Q codes they wanted. They said you can’t come in unless you pay us directly. We went home frustrated. Full refund please
