Phenomenal tour of the royal grounds around St. James. Umar was such a nice man with an amazing personality. So many random people along the tour stopped him and gave him so much grief claiming to be a part of the tour and he handled it all with such grace and resilience. Honestly, he’s an inspiration on how to handle insufferable, entitled people. I felt terrible for him to be dealing with that while he’s just trying to work. All in all, amazing experience. Umar was very informative. He has such a good sense of humor, and was an absolute pleasure to meet and be toured around by. Best guide ever

Umar is a wonderful guide to any adventure you wish to take. He's very knowledgeable and will make sure you have the time of your life. He is attentive to the needs of all the travelers in the group; everyone will feel valued and included. He took us around Scotland and England and adults and students had an amazing time. I would not only go on another tour with him again, I consider him a friend.You can't go wrong with Umar!
