Sherlock Holmes privéwandeltocht in Londen

Wow!! Where we can even BEGIN to describe the experience of a very special Sherlock Holmes Walking tour (In Stephen's own words)!! We have been fans of Sherlock Holmes fiction for more than half a century now; and it was a lifetime's dream that came true with Stephen and his Company Ye Olde England Tours. Stephen arranged a one of a kind Holmes tour focused on the classic Granada TV series and the books!! And for 3+ hours we were transported to the world of Sherlock Holmes as of it were early to mid 1900's. We could write an entire journal on those 3 hours..... Stephen deserves a medal!! He is an absolute FOUNTAIN of historical knowledge and inspite of that - extremely humble, kind and generous!! No detail was too small; no building/location went unspoken about.... We were also taken around locations associated with other great classical writers like HG Wells, Rudyard Kipling and George Orwell! 5 stars is not enough!!. Whichever tour is organized or led by Stephen is guaranteed to be of the highest quality and value for money. Imagine - we even had the GREATEST luck to have a photograph with a real detective at the original Scotland Yard!! By the end of the tour we wouldn't have been surprised to have been introduced to Lestrade!! Highest possible recommendation for Stephen and his company.

Stephen was great! All sorts of interesting information and very enjoyable three hours - even in the rain!

Kevin Pearman was our fabulous guide for the Sherlock Holmes Private walking tour, which as an additional bonus, has a vast knowledge of history that made the tour exceptional. This tour has to be experienced in person as words cannot describe the many sites we saw and all of the inside tidbits with fun anecdotes accompanying. Kevin exceeded our expectations and we would not hesitate to book another tour with this company. Booking was very simple and the company was very quick to respond to questions. I highly recommend and Kevin Pearman was absolutely fantastic.

Stephen was great. I was surprised that he took us to so many places that had nothing really to do with Sherlock. And he had lots of great info about everywhere we went. My favorite was when we saw where they filmed the scene in Sherlock where cumberbatch fell off the roof.

Our first activity on our very first visit to London - we traveled as a family and everyone loved this tour. So much info on the Sherlock Holmes saga - both past and more recent. Our guide, Kevin, was absolutely the best. He was kind, helpful, supremely knowledgeable! He pointed out so much that was nearby our walking path and helped us become familiar with the tube. Based upon information he shared, we went back to several places over the span of our visit. Kevin obviously loves what he does and it was clear that his top priority was to make our experience a great one!

Simon was like a walking Goggle of London history, a veritable encyclopedic knowledge of all things Sherlock and all things London. Walking through London with Simon allowed us to discover many unexpected gems of the rich history London hides in every nook and that probably other typical tours might miss. We had an absolutely fantastic time and when we come back to London we will be looking for Simon again for his other walking tours!!!

My husband and I did the Sherlock Holmes walking tour with Kevin three weeks ago. Well, it was supposed to be the Sherlock Holmes walking tour but it was WAY MORE than that! The things we learnt about London were amazing and so many gems hiding in plain sight! Our guide was SO knowledgeable and interesting, we could have walked all day listening to his stories! If you only have one time to do one tour in London, this has to be it!!

It’s hard to say which part of this tour was the most exciting. Kevin, our tour guide made every part of the trip so interesting and our grandchild flipped over following Sherlock’s story. Wished we could have spent more time with kevin .

Stephen kindly adapted his tour to our requests - my husband for Sherlock Holmes, for myself for some of the older buildings and communities that merged over the years to form London. Stephen's depth of knowledge was apparent, but he adapted his tour to our level! He also shared lots of fun facts to keep us smiling. I would thoroughly recommend one of these tours, especially to people like us who used to commute into London for work, but who never took the time to really look at and think about all the history around us.

Really like visiting all the places in conjucture with Sherlock holmes. Our guide was really good. Nice thing to do as a family
