Piccadilly Circus One of the most famous landmarks in London is the Piccadilly Circus. Some say it can be compared to Times Square in New York! It’s the meeting point of five large streets and it’s the gateway to the busy West End. If you love shopping, Oxford Street is one step away. Check it out at night as well to see it at it’s best and go explore Soho for a delicious dinner and a refreshing pint of beer.
The four of us, including two twelve year olds, loved the tour Anthony gave us. He took us to parts of London we wouldn't otherwise have seen and told interesting stories to match the locations. We couldn't have been more pleased.
David was a great host and we enjoyed this intro to London. Highly recommend!
Luciana's passion for London and beauty make this a fantastic tour. She provides the historical context (of which there is a lot), but also the beautiful gardens, excellent food, and quiet streets creating an incredible three hours!
Sorcha delivered a family friendly tour that engaged and entertained both us and our 9 and 11 year old sons! We love history and Sorcha delivered even the more gruesome and sensitive of London’s varied history in an age appropriate and informative way. She also scheduled in excellent breaks for snacks that ensured my jet lagged boys didn’t get (too) whiney on the ~5 miles we ended up covering. Sorcha’s knowledge of the landmarks, hidden gems, and the stories behind them, as well as her helpful tips for after the tour ensured a wonderful first day in the city!
