Traveler Reviews

The whole tour was very informative, the guide was very knowledgeable and added so much to our walk thru Westminster. Seeing Lawrence of Arabia tomb marker was a highlight because it was unexpected in a sea of historical items.

Guide did not turn up at abbey shop 5. People waiting for trip no correspondance made to us travelled all the way from scotland for a birthday treat really dissapoited. Please return £52.

Supposed to meet at 9:15 nothing was open never got the tour Very disappointed will not recommend this to anyone in fact will discourage anyone from doing this

Guide didn’t turn up. Wasted a lot of time waiting. No reply when we called the phone number. No reply on online chat function. Very disappointing

This was a phenomenal tour! Tour guide was absolutely brilliant with his depth of historical knowledge. We absolutely enjoyed this tour.
