Don was very friendly and knowledgeable. I enjoyed the first part of the tour more than Notting Hill. It gave me a good sense of the area which turns out I’ll be returning to later in my trip. Notting Hill was near to see and was glad I was there with a guide to point things out but I don’t know that I’d go out of my way to see it.
Maria was very flexible, since it just my wife and me. As we are in our 80’s, it was a bit of walking, but she accommodated our stops with a smile.
Very nice guide with great information. An enjoyable experience.
Maria Sol went over the top by getting us tickets to Westminster Abbey after I showed her that Viator noted that admission was included in the tour. The only backside is we really wanted to see Notting Hill. I think she should have asked us first and let us decided before getting the tickets because honestly, we would have stayed with the Notting Hill part of the tour. The cost of the tour wasn't cheap and knowing the cost of the Abbey. ticket, we should be given a credit.
Thank you for your feedback. The tour does not include Westminster Abbey tickets. However, due to the misunderstanding, the guide arranged and covered the cost of the Abbey tickets so you could still visit. Since visiting the Abbey requires additional time, the itinerary needed to be adjusted and you were asked which stop you preferred to prioritize. At that moment, the choice was made to visit the Abbey instead of continuing to Notting Hill. For this reason, we are a bit surprised by the complaint, as you were provided with an experience beyond what the tour normally includes, and the change in the itinerary was made based on the option you chose during the tour.
Isabel’s energy and love for London made this tour unforgettable. She blended rich history with the buzz of SoHo, Chinatown, and Westminster, and the ride to Notting Hill felt seamless. Walking through Portobello Road, stopping for a proper tea and pastry, and spotting the famous Notting Hill film locations made the experience feel complete. Three hours flew by and every moment was on point.
A really impressive tour with our guide Lila. We finished the experience feeling energized and fully absorbed in the culture. The 3-hour walk was engaging from start to finish, never dragging for a moment. Highly recommended. Big thanks to her for her enthusiasm and her readiness to respond to every single question.
We absolutely loved our tour with Ben. Full of laughs, great stops, and loads of fascinating facts. Having lived in London all his life, his insight was amazing. We had such a fun time exploring — thank you, Ben!
Federico was amazing. So informative and showed us some things we would never see. It was a lot of walking but never felt too fast. Would recommend to anyone.
Nina was incredible!! An outstanding guide who can easily adjust to any situation or traveler. She provides a fantastic experience, endless insight, and a genuine passion for sharing her love of everything London. This never felt like “just another tour.” It was a meaningful experience that made our trip far better than we imagined.
Clara was outstanding!! An incredible guide who knew how to adjust seamlessly to every situation and personality. She created a memorable journey, brought fascinating stories, connected wonderfully with our teenagers, and shared her genuine passion for everything connected to London. At no point did it feel like “just a simple tour.” Instead, it turned into a rich adventure that truly transformed our entire trip and made it unforgettable.
