Wij zijn met Anthony op stap geweest met ons gezin. Hij heeft duidelijk enorm veel ervaring en kan perfect inspelen op de behoeften van de klant. Ook stelt hij geregeld voor om een groepsfoto te nemen op de juiste en fotogenieke plekken. Een aanrader ! Top wandeling op maat in London!

We enjoyed our time with Anthony from the start until he left us at Trafalgar Square. The kids say our time with him and learning so much about London in such a short time was one of their favorite experiences of the trip. He gave us food tips, train tips, and safety tips to make our trip more enjoyable. Also, he has great stories! Bonus: he’s a super nice guy. Highly recommend booking with Anthony.London Must-Do

We had a great private tour of 4 hours with Anthony who clear not only knows every little corner of London but also loves the city and its little qwerky stories
We did both the classic sites with a bit of light digestable history lessons but also some of the lesser known local pearls
Me, wife and teenage son all really enjoyed it.
We would warmly recommend Anthony when you are in London Great Local Londoner

Our group of four (two couples) spent half a day touring London with Anthony and he was fantastic! Enthusiastic, funny, caring and extremely knowledgeable about all things London. He showed us the "touristy" sites we wanted to see and also many hidden gems that made our day super special. When we travel back to London, Anthony is our guide. :) Note, Anthony is a foodie and if you want to find the best fish and chips or fine dining he has the answers.Anthony is Amazing!

We had so much fun with Anthony. He knows London inside and out, and felt like an instant friend. He has a keen sense of humor, moves along at just the right pace, and shares fascinating stories and information. Anthony was so good at communicating, and helping design a four to show us the area of London we were interested in. We saw the Parliamentary areas together. Also, he nailed his food recommendations! We loved the pub, and he gave us some solid choices for our next day out to Borough Market. Anthony is Wonderful! An instant friend!

Thank you Anthony for being such an amazing, funny, interesting guide.
We had a wonderful time with Anthony who took us from Shoreditch to the Tower of London. Anthony knows London and its history very well, he goes out of the crowded paths to show you less touristy but very interesting corners. He is passionate about being a great guide and making sure that everyone is having a fantastic time.Anthony is an amazing guide!!!!!

We spent a great few hours with Chris discovering parts of London we didn't know existed. His historical knowledge was fascinating but he also tuned the tour to our interests by showing us multiple places to eat, markets and generally places of interest. He was easy company and had many interesting stories to tell. We have already discussed returning for a tour of another part of London.History of London

Chris was a wonderful guide. He was very energetic, knowledgeable and great with our kids (girls, ages 8 and 9). We did the walking tour the day we arrived, middle afternoon. This was a great way to get some exercise after a long flight and we couldn’t check-in yet anyway. Chris is a great guide and host - highly recommended!!Great way to start a London trip!

I can’t properly express how amazing our experience was. Anthony guided us on a 3 hour tour of amazing sites. I booked this tour because I knew I’d be overwhelmed by all that we wanted to see and do in London. This tour gave us a great taste of some of the most historical sites. Anthony’s knowledge of London and its history is so very impressive. I’m not a history buff, but he may have turned me into 1!Fell in love with London

My husband and I had a private Borough market tour with Anthony. The meeting spot was easy to locate. Anthony is really friendly and made us feel comfortable commenting and asking questions. I feel we sampled some of the best that the market offered. Anthony made the perfect high quality choices and we truly loved everything we ate. Along the way we got a bit of history which brought the area to life. We saw and ate many things in London, but the tour with Anthony was my favorite! I highly recommend this tour for everyone visiting. IMO it’s best to do it at the beginning of a trip. Thank you, Anthony, for a wonderful experience!A Delicious-Filling-Interesting-FUN Tour

We had an absolutely fantastic time on our family walking tour through London, Bankside, Borough Market, the Underground, Parliament, and Westminster with Anthony as our guide! From start to finish, Anthony was engaging, funny, and incredibly easy to talk to, making the experience enjoyable for our entire family, including our teenage boys who can be tough to impress. His storytelling brought the history and culture of each location to life, weaving in fascinating facts with a perfect dose of humor that kept us all hooked. Anthony’s warm and approachable demeanor made it feel like we were exploring with a friend, and he effortlessly connected with our boys, sparking their curiosity and keeping them entertained. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide to show us the vibrant sights and flavors of Borough Market, the iconic Underground, and the historic landmarks of Parliament and Westminster. Highly recommend Anthony for an unforgettable London adventure!Fabulous time!!

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!

Anthony was fantastic. My husband, myself, and our 9 and 11-year-old kids went on his tour our first full day in London. Not only did he take us to his favorite local spots, but he also showed us some of the biggest sites, but with a different perspective and viewpoint. He answered all of our questions, and you can tell that he has a deep bench of knowledge to draw from. Also, his taste in food is 🤌. We highly recommend him and we would absolutely go on another tour with him next time we're in town!Family-friendly, knowledgeable, and fun!

If you're looking to experience Shoreditch beyond the guidebooks and Instagram hotspots, Anthony’s walking tour is an absolute must. From the moment we began, it was clear that this wasn't just a job for him—it was a passion project. With an infectious enthusiasm for the quirky, the forgotten, and the fleeting, Anthony brought the streets of East London to life in a way few others could.
What sets this tour apart is Anthony’s eye for the hidden details most would miss. He led us down quiet alleys and past unassuming buildings, revealing layers of history, culture, and creativity. His knowledge of Shoreditch’s ever-evolving street art scene was incredible—not just the big names like Banksy, but the emerging artists, political messages, and even the pieces that might disappear by next week. It felt like we were seeing a living, breathing gallery.
Anthony also has a knack for storytelling, weaving in anecdotes about the area’s rebellious past, eccentric residents, and how Shoreditch continues to reinvent itself. His deep respect for the neighborhood’s character, both old and new, shone through in every stop and story.
If you're curious, creative, or just tired of cookie-cutter tours, this is the one to book.

Chris was a great guide! We had planned an afternoon Kickstart tour and had some check in issues at our Airbnb so we were a bit late getting started. Chris was very adaptable - waited for us while we grabbed a quick bite to eat and re-arranged some of his planned tour. He provided a great overview of London - particularly in the government area and gave us useful recommendations as to travel and restaurants too. Definitely a 5 star.London visit

We had the absolute pleasure of spending our first day in London with Chris as our tour guide, and it was the perfect introduction to this incredible city. Not only did he teach us how to navigate the Tube like locals, but he also took us to some of London’s most iconic spots: Parliament, Covent Garden, the financial district, and so much more.
What truly set Chris apart was his extraordinary knowledge and the fascinating historical stories he shared at every stop. His passion for the city is contagious, and we left the tour feeling more connected to London’s rich past and vibrant present.
Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, booking a tour with Chris is a must. Highly recommend!A fantastic day in London with Chris!

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!

It helped to provide context and interesting history to all the beautiful sites/buildings. They have repeated the stories they learned to our friends when telling others about our trip!

Anthony is ongelofelijk gedreven en kent dit deel van de stad. We hebben het Eastend ontdekt met zijn prachtige murals en dan doorgewandeld over Towerbridge naar Borough Market. Eigenlijk hadden we dit beter in 2x gedaan, want het was een stevige wandeling en door tijdgebrek hadden we iets te weinig tijd om af en toe stil te staan en te genieten. Beide sites echt de moeite om te ontdekken en zeker met Anthony, echt een aardige man.HEEL FIJNE UITSTAP

Chris has brought us a precise tour and responded to the points we had agreed.
I will ask him to extend for next year to extend this tour, as I plan to present this to a group of interested visitors.

We had the absolute pleasure of taking a private 2.5-hour tour of London with Chris, and it exceeded all of our expectations! The tour was a birthday gift for my husband, who had lived in London for nearly two years. I thought it might be difficult to surprise him, but Chris did an incredible job of curating a unique and highly personalised experience that catered to his interests and needs.
Chris shared so many fascinating facts and little-known details about London that even my husband, with his familiarity with the city, was thoroughly impressed and delighted. His passion for the city's history and culture really shone through, and his engaging storytelling made the experience truly unforgettable.
He was thrilled with this thoughtful and informative tour, and I couldn’t have asked for a better gift for him. Thank you, Chris, for making this such a memorable day for both of us. Highly recommended!A great London Tour with Chris

If you want to experience London to the fullest, Chris is the expert you want. We began our trip with Chris as our guide-- not just a facts person, but a person who asked what our interests were and expertly crafted a tour where we didn't have a lecture, but a conversation. Chris's depth of knowledge about London and his ability to connect with us made our conversation about London so exciting and engaging. He really connected with us and made our tour special, meaningful, and fun. Chris wanted us to share his excitement about London with us, and we were hooked! Can't wait to come back to London and tour with Chris again.Exciting, Engaging Tour with Chris
