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!London is beautiful

My daughter and I had the most wonderful experience with Luciana. I booked a private walking tour of Covent Garden, Seven Dials and Soho with Luciano, asking her to specifically focus on an exploration of vintage / thrift clothing shops and vinyl records. These two areas are of great interest to my daughter and the trip to London from South Africa was her 18th birthday present! From the moment, Luciana and I started chatting, she was helpful and professional. When we met her for the tour, she was absolutely charming and so knowledgeable about the areas - history and landmarks. Luciana was a wonderful guide and did not disappoint in showing my daughter some of the most wonderful shops - in fact we ran out of time because my daughter tried on so many clothes!! Luciana was so helpful and patient with her. She also gave us some fantastic restaurant and other recommendations. I would not hesitate to book Luciana again, and I could not recommend her services more. Thank you Luciana for helping to make my daughter's birthday as magical as it was. Highly Recommend

Luciana clearly has a passion for the V&A and her expert knowledge made our visit so much more interesting. She tailored some of the tour based on our interests and never made us feel rushed. We'll be back! And would definitely recommend Luciana as a guide. Absolutely fabulous guide

If you’re looking for a tour that goes beyond the typical tourist spots and unveils the true magic of London, look no further than Luciana’s Hidden Gems Tour. From the moment we met, her passion for the city was evident—her knowledge of history, architecture, and design added a depth to the experience that I never expected. Luciana led me through enchanting hidden courtyards, tucked-away gardens, and charming historic buildings that I would have never found on my own. Every stop had a fascinating story, and she wove them together beautifully, making the city feel alive in a whole new way. Her enthusiasm was infectious, and her ability to blend history with personal insights made the experience feel intimate and special. What truly sets Luciana apart is her attention to detail and personalization—it felt like she had designed the tour just for me! She answered every question with warmth and expertise, and I left not only with incredible memories but also a deeper appreciation for London’s hidden beauty. If you want to see London like a local, away from the crowds, and discover its best-kept secrets, book a tour with Luciana. It was the highlight of my trip, and I can’t recommend her enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10—an absolute must-do!A Truly Unforgettable Tour with Luciana!

My husband and I spent three wonderful hours with Luciana yesterday at the Victoria and Albert museum in London. We were so impressed by Luciana’s incredible knowledge of this large museum. She clearly explained the history of the museum, of the pieces in the museum and shared her personal favorites. Luciana was kind, well spoken and smart. We have used With Locals many times and I think she was one of the best guides. We highly recommend.Excellent Guide for V&A

We had a wonderful morning with Luciana. She asked beforehand our shopping preferences so that she could customize the locations and we met near bond street. My wife was certain that we never would have found the shops we did in the limited time we had if we had not booked this tour. Luciana was very knowledgeable and pleasant to be with. Thank you so much!Got it just right.

I had the wonderful experience of spending four hours with Luciana on her custom London shopping tour. Spending this time with Luciana was like shopping with a good friend. The tour was excellent and customized for me. Not only did we shop in some wonderful independent stores, but also visited the amazing Liberty, some beautiful art installations and a serene meditative garden. If you want a customized shopping experience with a knowledge local, book Luciana’s tour! Amazing Shopping Tour!
