An unforgettable, wonderful experience!
Our multi-generational group (grandparents, parents, 2 kids, ages 4 and 7) had the most wonderful 2 days in London with Peter, who truly brought the city alive for us and tailored the tour to our eclectic interests - from Harry Potter to the legal system, financial history, American history, music, and more! Peter has a tremendous wealth of knowledge, boundless enthusiasm, and does an excellent job of making the days engaging and educational for all ages. The black cab makes things easy and feels like a real London adventure. We enthusiastically and highly recommend him! Well worth the cost, and good value for the unforgettable experience. Book now!

Insider Tour with Peter!
Thank you so much Peter for everything!
The tour was brilliant and perfectly tailored to our interests in British gardens, music and Caribbean history. Peter’s passion and breadth of knowledge spanning centuries is incredible, and he had an answer for every single question!
He was thoughtful, took great care of us, and made sure we had a wonderful time. I highly recommend booking with him if you want to experience London in a more authentic way :)

Memorable and loads of fun!
Incredible day with Peter who knows more about the history of London, the music industry and with his vast knowledge and experience, can tailor your tour to your own tastes and experiences. I've never learned so much in a short time and without the inane monotony of most other tours. He truly is passionate and cares about the details and will take you to places you will never see with another guide. Thank you Peter for such a wonderful day!

SPECTACULAR!!
Peter has a wealth of knowledge about London history and shares it in a way that is understandable. He asked about my interests and then catered my tour to sites that fascinated me! Wear comfy shoes because you will be on the move seeing all the most wonderful places, many of them off the beaten path and removed from the big crowds. I honestly felt like a boy again while we scampered all over the city... SUCH GOOD FUN!! My 6-hour tour would have easily taken two full days with typical tour agencies. Best money I ever spent!!!
