5.00The first half of the tour gave us a personal guide to the life of winston churchill. We saw the the buildings he lived in as a child, and later as an adult. Our guide was obviously an expert on the man, and he could answer any question we had. The second half of the tour was a self-guided, audio tour of the war rooms themselves.

5.00This is an excellent way to learn about the life of one of the most pivotal men who has ever lived. The guide was exceptional and provided us with a wealth of information. We spent several hours walking seeing where Churchill spent his life and heard so many amazing stories. By the time we arrived at the Churchill War Rooms, we felt very prepared to understand the significance of the museum. Highly recommend!
