Christopher🇺🇸 United States
2 March 2025
We were in London for a short time, and our tour with Chris was the perfect way to get acquainted with both historical and modern London in just a couple hours. Chris was not only friendly and engaging, but truly a wealth of knowledge about history and life in London. He was also flexible to ensure our tour fit in a pretty compact day of dining and other activities. Our tour with Chris was the highlight of our short time in London and we'd highly recommend him to any future visitors. Thank you Chris!Perfect Intro to London

Hello
We had a fantastic walk starting from Smithfield- st Bartholomeus - Barbican -London Wall - St.Alphage Wall and finished at Guildhall.
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

My wife and I spent 3 great hours with Chris on the local history tour that began at St Paul's Cathedral. This man is a wealth of information about all things historical in London. We learned things that are not written in the history books and can only be explained in detail in person. This tour was worth the time amd money !! Great day 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

Chris was amazing! Even though it was a typical rainy London evening, Chris made it memorable and fun! Very knowledgeable and knows the history of area like the back of his hand. Chris was amazing at answering our 10 year old nephews questions and keeping him engaged as well! I very much suggest Chris for your next London tour!!!Fun and Knowledgeable

Chris was wonderful. He was incredibly helpful before my tour in making recommendations. He was on time, very communicative and he was cheery and knowledgable. We got a great walking tour which was perfect for day 1 to get to know the neighborhoods. I’d do this tour again. Chris is outstanding

We had an amazing three-hour tour with Chris through the City of London. Chris kept us moving (we had just flown in) and brought Roman, Restoration, and modern history alive. The little-known history of London’s guilds was particularly fascinating. We recommend Chris whole heartedly. History Alive in the City of London

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

I had the pleasure of joining Chris on a tour of London, and it was truly exceptional. His deep knowledge of British History infused our journey with fascinating insights and local expertise. We explored coffee and later immersed ourselves in the vibrant pub culture. Chris’s passion for the city and his personalized approach made the entire experience both enriching and delightful. Highly recommend him for anyone looking to explore London’s unique charm with a knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide!

I couldn't recommend Chris enough. I booked this for my mom and my two sisters and I to have a little "jumpstart" to our London trip. It was exactly what we wanted it to be. He walked us through so many different sites and we ended at Buckingham Palace and gave us a ton of history and little tidbits we would have never gotten otherwise. He even taught us how to ride the tube. Would give this man a raise if I could! AMAZING

Chris gave us a really interesting and informative tour of the canal area. We learned all about London history and current culture. He is very knowledgeable and easy to talk with, and the tour went by almost too quickly! This was not an area we would have walked on our own and are grateful that he helped us learn about a new neighborhood. Wonderful tour
Jasmine🇺🇸 United States

Chris was an absolute gem of a guide for myself and my fiancé. We navigated through some scheduling issues (due to my confusion) and he was patient and understanding throughout the communications. He led us through Greenpark, through Buckingham Palace, by Big Ben and Westminster Abbey, and we ended up at Trafalgar Square, which checked off all of our “wish list” spots. Chris was enlightening and knows SO much about British history, and weaved in some interesting tidbits about our personal interests. He provided us with advice for the rest of our trip, especially navigating the Eurostar and we couldn’t have left the tour more invigorated or appreciative! Informative and Entertaining!

It was a unique and fabulous experience; I highly recommend it! Chris is a wonderful person who is exceptionally knowledgeable about historic England and ties this knowledge in with one of my favourite beverages: good coffee. Chris’ passion for history, architecture and coffee shone throughout the tour. He was generous with his time and information. Chris also provided us with recommendations for a great brunch spot before our tour and left us with many resources to explore during our visit to England.A Caffeinated Tour in Historic England

Wir waren zum Champions League Finale in London und wollten es mit ein wenig Kultur und Geschichte verknüpfen. Chris war dafür die perfekte Wahl und hat uns interessant und humorvoll durch die Stadt geführt.
Er konnte auch noch ein wenig lernen, z.b. warum so viele Menschen in Schwarzgelb in London unterwegs waren.
Super tour mit Chris

Best walking tour ever! Chris is so knowledgeable and loves sharing his knowledge of London - it’s past and present. We asked for an extended tour and Chris personalized a tour just for us. Due to an error on my part, Chris had to adjust his plan on the fly and make an extra journey on the tube to meet us. He answered all of our questions, always checked in with us to see how we were doing and if we wanted to see something else, and even helped us find our way home! We highly recommend Chris, he is kind, personable, and a great tour guide!Chris is awesome!

Spent our first afternoon on a private tour with Chris and it could not have been better. Try finding a Christmas carol tour in May. Hubby's all time favorite movie. Messaging back and forth with Chris to work out details, hubby walking with bad knees, 11 year old adhd bouncing off walls and Chris was a pro. On the tour he was Engaging, answering all sorts of questions thrown at him, including off the wall ones. And he brought the book with him so as we were looking at places mentioned or the inspiration, he could read the passages to us. Then he took the time to make all sorts of recommendations where to eat for all different sorts of food. Ate at the pub he recommended for dinner and it was incredible. Chris was lovely!! Perfect private tour for my family.

Wir waren zum ersten Mal in London, hatten schon das eine oder andere auf eigene Faust gesehen und wollten mit Chris noch etwas mehr über London erfahren. Er hat sich ganz nach unseren Wünschen gerichtet und uns von Westminster über die White Hall Road zum Trafalgar Square geführt. Er gab uns Einblicke in die Geschichte Londons, erzählte uns über die Geschäfte in der Jermyn Street, wo u.a. auch die Royals einkaufen und zum Abschluss führte er uns in ein sehr schönes Pub. Chris ist sehr sympathisch und engagiert. Man merkt ihm an, dass ihm diese Tätigkeit Spaß macht und er mit Herzblut dabei ist. Er hat uns so manches erzählt, was man nicht im Reiseführer liest. Im Vorfeld unseres Treffens haben wir mit ihm kommuniziert und er hat sich dann Gedanken gemacht, was er uns noch alles zeigen könnte. Wenn wir wieder einmal nach London reisen, werden wir Chris sehr gerne wieder buchen. Wir wünschen ihm weiterhin viel Freude bei seiner Tätigkeit als "Private Guide". Vielen Dank nochmals, Chris!Mit Chris immer wieder gerne durch London

Chris was beyond amazing and informative! He walked us around London, and completely tailored our tour based on what we wanted to see during our short stay. Friendly, engaging, passionate and welcoming is how I’d best describe Chris’ approach and personality. My mother, who is 72 and not as robust as others in the group, had no problem keeping up with the tour and to top off our experience- we saw the King pulling out of his residence. Chris really outdid himself and I would highly recommend using him as your tour guide! Outstanding tour!

Chris was very knowledgeable and was eager to tell the most minute details about the history of London. You can tell he's passionate about what he does. Communication all the way up until the day of the tour was good as well. The tour is definitely a little pricey for just one person so I would recommend to go as a group.

Knowing the city and the rich west end of London well, we decided to tour some of the more "down at heel" parts of London's east end. As important to the history of the world's greatest city, this tour by Chris provided a very interesting insight into the histories of those that powered much of the industrial growth of London.
Chris was a very friendly and engaging guide, focusing in particular on the younger members of the party. On a what was a very wet day, Chris kept everyone engaged and interested for two hours, starting in Bethnal Green and working our way through Brick Lane, Aldgate and eventually Cable Street.
This is a different face of London, Chris brought it to life and provided interesting insights into the lives of its residents over the years, in particular the waves of immigration that have fuelled the growth of key trades in London over the centuries. An uncommon history of London

We read about 'Withlocals' in our local newspaper and got intrigued. I contacted Chris who helped us booking the tour that would suit us best. And it was just great: Chris took us to places where we would have never been without him, he told us stories we had never heard of and he patiently replied to all our questions. Chris is such a nice, interesting and interested person that at the end of the tour we felt like being friends. We highly recommend the tour to all those who would like to see London not only from the purely touristic angle - we enjoyed every minute of it!!Secret places

We enjoyed a fabulous London tour with our wonderful guide, Chris. Chris’s personal experiences and in-depth knowledge of London, its history, royal dramas, and neighborhoods, made for an educational, all-encompassing stroll through the city. Chris’s love of history and the personalities that made London what it is today gave us a much-appreciated perspective on the royals and what a monarchy means in today’s turbulent times. I highly recommend spending a few hours soaking up Chris’s unparalleled knowledge and observations on the city he obviously loves! Extraordinary tour w an excellent guide!
Michael🇩🇪 Germany
22 July 2023
Chris is very knowledgeable and flexible. He started the tour getting to know us and our interests. He found out some of the places we visited and said he would by-pass that part of the tour so as not to replicate what we had already seen. When he found out our son interests in cars and daughters in Queen Elizabeth, he took us to show us some things that may not have been where he planned - like street where everywhere we could see Ferrari’s, Bentley’s, Maclaren’s. Chris also took us past the “location” where Queen Elizabeth was born.
Chris’s background in British history made the tour so much more enjoyable. It gave the tour a different perspective.
Chris did such an awesome job I will definitely connect with him on our return trip and recommend! AWESOME EXPERIENCE

Wir hatten ingesamt drei Touren mit Chris zu unterschiedlichen Themenschwerpunkten durchgeführt. Im Vorfeld, während der Touren und auch danach hat er uns sehr gut beraten, betreut und ist auf unsere individuellen Wünsche eingegangen. Es war großartig mit ihm die Touren zu machen, London zu entdecken und von zahlreichen "Hideen Spots" überrascht zu werden. So vielfältig wie London, ist auch das Hintergrundwissen von Chris. Wir würden beim nächsten Mal wieder Chris als Guide buchen. Vielen Dank für die tollen Touren! Persönlich, authentisch und professionell

Chris is one of a kind. He is a studied historian and will guide you through the centuries and what’s to be seen of it in the most interesting way. He knows the tiny bits and pieces, that history books won’t tell. He is very polite and of great courtesy, which is not a matter of course any more these days. Chris adapts to my knowledge as well as to my gaps in knowledge, which made our tour a perfect time for me. I would like to declare him the Koh-i-Noor of London‘s tour guides!Best tourist guide to choose!
