Really enjoyed Nick’s tour of Westminster Abbey. He kept it light, fun, and easy to follow, and pointed out loads of details we would’ve walked straight past. He was flexible and kept at our own pace. Just a really good way to see the place.
I had the pleasure of a Majesty in Motion guided tour with Nick the famous Loudman! I have to say it was brilliant, and I would thoroughly recommend any tour with Nick, he is incredibly knowledgeable and entertaining. Andrew.
What a fantastic way to be introduced to Royal London! We saw so much thanks to Nicks expert knowledge of where to be for the best photo opportunities at exactly the right time. We would have had no chance trying to plan that ourselves. The walk there and back around was wonderful as well. Nick engaged the group with all his stories and facts. He really knows so much to make it fun for everyone. I will be booking myself on more of his tours whilst in town. Thank you
I had a great morning with Nick on his Majesty in Motion tour. It was incredibly informative and Nick is a wonderful guide with bags of energy, great facts and a winning sense of humour. I would thoroughly recommend a Laudman Tour to anyone who wants to get to see the Changing of the Guard and to learn more about the wonderful history of London.
A real fun and informative morning with Nick, strollling around the highlights of Westminster. He really knows his stuff, from the best place to stand to see the Changing of the Guard, to lots of stories which you simply wouldn’t find in a guidebook, and all delivered with a smile and real warmth. He even made sure the daffodils were in full bloom for our visit!! Great tour. Highly recommend.
This tour was simply incredible, if you want to see the very best of Westminster/Royal history and learn some amazing facts with a fun & energetic guide this is the tour for you. This was the most fun & insightful tour I have ever done in London. Nick is amazing, you will not regret booking this tour. He shows you all the main things, but also points out some fascinating hidden gems. He brings the history to life with his explanations and stories. He also puts you in the best places to witness the changing of the guard without being swamped by thousands of people. I cannot recommend this tour enough, it is a must do when you are in London. In my opinion Nick is the best tour guide in London. I have done many tours with many guides over the years & Nick is the very best of the bunch.
My grandsons and I gate crashed a tour that was in process on the 6 Aug in the Mall. Nick had a lovely couple from the US with him and we proceeded down the Mall. Buckingham palace and gave us facts you might not have known - how many bedrooms does it have? Went on through St James park, horse guards parade for changing the guards, information about Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, and parliament. Round onto Whitehall, Downing Street. Nick was a brilliant guide, funny and informative. Really recommend Nick - join his tours - you’ll have fun
What a fun, enjoyable and cool morning with Nick. This was one of the best tours that I did in my life. Highly recommended if you want to have a different (but historial) morning in central London
Nick is an amazing guide and everything he tels is interesting and funny. For this tour he makes sure that you have the best view possible of the changing guards and Buckingham palace.
Nick is an excellent tour guide - I spent an extremely enjoyable morning being entertained with amazing stories, incredible facts and a great sense of fun. Nick chose all the best places to stand to see the Changing of the Guard in all its glory and I learned a huge amount about Westminster, the Royals and much more beside. I highly reccomend him.
