(About local Tom)

1 julio 2025

Our family of four (with two teenagers - 19 and 14) spent three unforgettable hours with Tom during our first visit to London. Tom is an incredible storyteller and allows you to get to know London in an engaging and relatable way. He introduced us to key landmarks like Tower Bridge, House of Parliament, Westminster Abbey and Big Ben, and helped us orient ourselves on our first day in the city, so we could go back to some of his recommended spots. He also suggested a great pub circa 1663 near the area we stayed in and it was fantastic! Great food and ambience. Tom’s comment about London truly stuck with us - “London might not be the most beautiful city, but it’s definitely the most honest - as it’s not afraid to show the good, the bad and the ugly.” That really resonated - it’s truly such an eclectic city full of contrasts. Thank you Tom for helping make our first trip here so memorable! If you’re considering booking a tour with Tom - just do it and you’ll be glad you did!Highlight of our visit

We had a wonderful tour with Chris. He is so knowledgeable and clearly is passionate about the City and its history. During the tour, he made sure to check with us about how the pacing of the tour felt. We especially appreciated his ability to tailor the tour to our interests — we asked for a focus on architecture and Chris delivered. I learned a lot and had fun doing it. Thank you Chris! Brilliant Tour of the City

We are a family of four with a 10 and 13 year old. We wanted Tom because of his storytelling description and we weren’t disappointed. Tom was fun and engaging and was full of stories and history which our kids ate up. We discussed tons of topics and he seemed to be able to answer or provide some insight to every topic. His passion for history and guiding was obvious and made it a great time. We would happily take another tour with Tom if possible. Great family highlights tour!

Travel delayed us and we joined Tome almost a half an hour tarty. He was gracious and creative. He tweaked the tour, changed the itinerary a bit and we covered all and more we had hoped for! We only had that afternoon and the next day in London so he provided a great orientation, recommendations for dinner and a quick tutorial of the Underground! Awesome AND flexible!

Chris was a wonderfully friendly and knowledgeable guide. We covered from Roman times to the present, all within the few blocks enclosed by St Paul’s Cathedral, Guildhall and the Royal Exchange. We learned a lot! We had not appreciated until then that London City is just a small part of London. Great historical tour of London City

We spent a week in London and had the pleasure of spending two mornings with our guide Gregory. He took us through the heart of the city, showing us many fascinating details that most visitors would easily miss. From Westminster to Soho, Chinatown, Piccadilly and beyond – Gregory knew his way around perfectly and guided us smoothly through the city on foot. His pleasant and personable manner made the time fly by, and we truly enjoyed every moment. A heartfelt thank you to Gregory for making our London visit even more special!Gregory – The Ultimate Tour Guide!

Chris had us at "Welcome to London." Our biggest disappointment was that we didn't book Chris for all 3 days we were in London. Chris is fabulous, interesting, great sense of humor, and has a wealth of knowledge at his fingertips!!! We'd like to come back just to have Chris show us more of the city he truly loves.Truly a fabulous guide!

17 febrero 2025

If you’re looking for a tour that goes beyond the typical tourist spots and unveils the true magic of London, look no further than Luciana’s Hidden Gems Tour. From the moment we met, her passion for the city was evident—her knowledge of history, architecture, and design added a depth to the experience that I never expected. Luciana led me through enchanting hidden courtyards, tucked-away gardens, and charming historic buildings that I would have never found on my own. Every stop had a fascinating story, and she wove them together beautifully, making the city feel alive in a whole new way. Her enthusiasm was infectious, and her ability to blend history with personal insights made the experience feel intimate and special. What truly sets Luciana apart is her attention to detail and personalization—it felt like she had designed the tour just for me! She answered every question with warmth and expertise, and I left not only with incredible memories but also a deeper appreciation for London’s hidden beauty. If you want to see London like a local, away from the crowds, and discover its best-kept secrets, book a tour with Luciana. It was the highlight of my trip, and I can’t recommend her enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10—an absolute must-do!A Truly Unforgettable Tour with Luciana!

I completed the Highlights & Hidden Gems of London tour with María Clara and had an amazing time! I was only in London for about 36 hours and really wanted to maximize my time in the city, and this tour couldn't have been a better choice. María Clara is extremely knowledgable about the culture of London—including food, music, art, etc.—in terms of both the tourist attractions as well as lesser known aspects of the city. She also has deep historical knowledge and provided context for every place we visited. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested!Fantastic tour and company!

Andreea is friendly but reserved, knowledgeable yet not intimidating and walking with her is a refreshing, pleasant experience. The choice of landmarks is just right to pique the interest of everyone in the family. She carried pictures of places as they were in the past, reconstructing the glory of the monuments with what remains today. She had an interesting story to tell about everything. I think walking around a place with a guide like her is the best way to learn the history of the place.A Pleasant Experience

Despite having visited London multiple times before, we learned so many new and fascinating things about the city. David’s ability to engage both us as adults and our young adult kids made the experience truly exceptional. It was dynamic, highly interesting, and never felt boring for a second. We will absolutely book David again on our next trip to London. Thank you, David, for such a memorable experience!Incredible 3-hour tour with David

David was an excellent guide for us in this sunny, but cold November day. Although some of us had been to London numerous times,everything we saw and learned about was new to us. David has an impressive knowledge of architecture and history, and also with regards to the history related to popular culture over the decades. Not at least, he did it with humor and wit, and conveyed some hilarious anecdotes along the way! We were truly impressed, and felt extremely lucky we got such a great guide.

I had the absolute pleasure of having Cory as my tour guide in London, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Cory is an incredibly pleasant person, with a vast and impressive knowledge of London’s rich history. He sailed through the tour like a true pro, effortlessly blending stories, facts, and hidden gems that only a true Londoner would know. Cory even went above and beyond by taking me to extra spots not originally planned, making sure I experienced parts of the city I would have otherwise missed. Originally, our tour was set for three hours, but it ended up being a generous 4.5 hours as he made sure we didn’t miss a thing. Cory's warmth, kindness, and humor added so much to the journey—he’s truly a gem of a person. Not only did he guide me extensively, but he also served me with a delicious lunch, showcasing just how thoughtful and giving he is. If you're considering a guide in London, I wholeheartedly recommend Cory. You’ll leave with not only unforgettable memories of the city but also having met a genuinely wonderful person.Fantastic and amazing

Und dabei hat er auch noch immer Fotos von uns allen gemacht…! Vielen Dank an Tom! Absolut empfehlenswert! Sehr empfelenswert!

Chris was polite and easy company during our tour. He demonstrated his proclaimed local historian credentials commendably. Although the 'free snack or drink' didn't materialise (except for Chris .. we paid ) it was after two other walking tours in Lucerne and Milan that we felt more underwhelmed than at the time by this experience. Having said that it was satisfying enough, and Chris did his best to come up with a tailored tour . Relaxed Historical tour
