It was the best tour we took in London! Richard was excellent and owner of Richards Tours. Tour guides are not allowed inside, and you use their audio prepared tour. Areas can be small, cramped and slow but it's worth it. Please study the layout of the "museum'. We found the layout confusing. If two or more are touring together, have a meeting plan, if one or more view at different rates. Inside the War Rooms passages, there will be not communications via text, etc. If one person leaves before the others, there is no reentry to meet up.
Fascinating and personally tailired

We booked a private tour with Richard to learn the intricacies of Churchill’s London experience. Richard contacted us before the tour about any special needs we may have and wonderfully tailered the walking tour to our frailties. He had great anecdotes and took us to shops Churchill frequented. We had some great discussions and my husband, a Churchill and WWII buff, was thrilled. And the War Rooms exceeded all expectations! We highly recommend this fabulous experience.
