A wonderful day!
My wife and I had the good fortune to book a tour with Luciana while visiting London for the first time. The experience was wonderful. She introduced us to her city and showed us many of the iconic sites and hidden gems of the area. Her knowledge and personality were perfect. She receives our highest recommendation. We have used WithLocals many times and will continue to do so.

We saw the King and Queen !!!
Firstly, I must truly appreciate that Tom was ever so accommodating given we had messed up our train journey and were running quite late!
He shared some charming insights into the history of the Royals, all with a dash of humor to keep us entertained all the while.
The highlight of our tour was undoubtedly when we saw the King and Queen driving into and then again out of Buckingham Palace! Those moments specially were exhilarating.
Thank you Tom was the warmth and the wonderful time.
