Louise was a fantastic and engaging tour guide and made excellent suggestions for what to do after the tour as well. We saw changing of the horse guard, Big Ben, Westminster, the ministry of magic aka defense and no 10 downing. Our guide taught us about Roman history, centuries old history (Cromwell etc), WW2 and information about modern royal succession.

Great experience. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Personally holding great esteem for Churchill, I particularly enjoyed this tour. Brendan Quinn certainly knows his history and was able to convey further details of Churchill’s life that I loved tearing about. Very much enjoyed Churchill’s War rooms museum and the nearby sights of London. Palace of Westminster (Parliament buildings) and Big Ben have incredible architecture. A feast for the eyes. It was a fabulous morning.

My wife and I took this tour with David - very knowledgeable guide with great storytelling charm. Would definitely recommend taking this tour. Allow extra time at the end to fully appreciate all the war rooms have to offer - excellently displayed and interesting museum. Well worth it!

Aweaome tour with Brendon. Great walking tour before War rooms. Really cool history and tour. It was surreal being underground and learning about the history behind Churchill.

Very knowledgeable group leader. Very interesting but I’m a Churchill fan. The war rooms part was also very interesting, but as I’ve noticed in other British museums and compared to American and German museums, it’s a bit disorganized. You just have to do more work to follow.

Great tour of Churchill’s War Rooms! The experience starts with about 90 minutes of walking beforehand. Could be a long walk for some, but it was broken up with plenty of stops and packed with knowledgeable, engaging insight along the way. The commentary added so much context and really brought the history to life. We learned a lot and truly had a great time from start to finish. After the walking tour, you get access to the war room exhibit that you can access at your own pace. The museum is extensive and required us 2 hours to explore. Great experience.

Michael was an incredible guide. He was a wealth of knowledge, especially facts about UK government structure + architecture . His dept of commentary regarding Churchill’s involvement + WWII was wide ranging. He also has a wicked sense of humor woven into his stories. Highly recommend!!!!
