We had an absolutely fantastic tour with Andy at the Imperial War Museum and Churchill War Rooms. He was incredibly knowledgeable, insightful, and engaging, and he made the entire experience feel very personal and individualized.
At the Imperial War Museum, Andy added so much context to the exhibits and helped connect the artifacts and personal stories to the larger history of Britain during the World Wars. At the Churchill War Rooms, he pointed out fascinating details we easily would have missed, including how the underground Cabinet War Rooms, map rooms, and communications areas were used during World War II.
Andy has a fantastic personality and is a wonderful storyteller. He provided great perspective without ever making the amount of history feel overwhelming. We learned so much and came away with a much deeper appreciation for Churchill, wartime London, and the people who lived through that period.
This was one of the highlights of our time in London. If you enjoy history, especially World War II or Churchill, I highly recommend booking a tour with Andy!

Churchill War Rooms (Sheldon)
Sheldon was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. He had lots of good background/stories to share before heading into the war rooms and was able to answer all of our follow-up questions. Despite the war rooms being crowded, Sheldon was able to make the tour feel intimate and personal. Meet up was very easy and well communicated 24 hours in advance. Great experience.

Worthwhile tour with knowledgeable guide
This was a really worthwhile tour. The guide, Andy, was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and happy to answer any questions about WWI and WWII. The Churchill War Rooms part of the tour was very interesting and a definite highlight. The 3 hours passed very quickly, as there was so much to see at both of the sites.
