Our tour guide, Davey, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable of the history of London and took us to places that we would have not seen otherwise. He was extremely accommodating and I would highly recommend him for a private tour.

An absolutely wonderful tour of London. Dave’s, our tour guide was so knowledgeable about the history. However, he conversed with us to determine what our interests were and personalized the tour based on our interests. Great introduction to an incredible city!
Davy was an outstanding guide for our London tour — the kind of experience that goes well beyond just reciting facts and dates. He was clearly knowledgeable about the city's history and hidden corners, but what really stood out was how relatable and engaging he was throughout. Spending the day with him felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring the city with a good friend who just happened to know everything about it. He struck that rare balance of being informative without ever feeling like a lecture, and his warmth and humor made the whole experience memorable. Highly recommend Davy to anyone looking for a guide who brings both expertise and genuine personality to the tour.
You see all the major highlights of London along with hidden gems. Davey was informative and insightful.
Tom was great. He was very accommodating and customized our experience. He had an immense amount of knowledge of London’s history.
We enjoyed our walking tour with Anna. She was very knowledgeable about the city and history to provide us with so much information.
I booked this tour to maximize our limited time in London. I provided a very extensive itinerary and our fabulous guide, Davey, came through. He was punctual, courteous, extremely knowledgeable, and an absolute pleasure to tour with. If you can request Davey, do so!
Anna was truly a delight! This experience allowed us to see and learn so much about London--from history to humor to interacting with local shops and people, it was the very best way for us to engage London in our time frame. By participating in this tour, we had the confidence to navigate the city on our own for the remainder of our time. Anna loves London, and her passion and knowledge are top notch! She was also generous enough to share some free walking plans with us which allowed us to experience even more without being tied to a specific time frame. If you want to know all about London, you must book with Anna!!
Davey was our guide. He was very knowledgeable and engaging, we saw all we wanted to see and he was great about sharing some of his personal favorite spots with us as well. From history to pop culture sites he made our London visit educational and fun. Great guy and super friendly. Made for a memorable experience for us both!
Excellent start to get acquainted with London. Davey provides great advice & tips for our time in London
Davey’s tour was great! We got to see many of the highlights of London while also learning a lot. Davey provided flexibility for my family’s tour and plenty of humor too. Great start to our family vacation and set the bar high!
A personal guided tour with a driver is the best way to see the sights of London. Our experience with our driver Paul and guide Davey was exceptional! They were able to personalize our tour on the spot, picked out a lovely pub for lunch, and engaged in on going conversation throughout the day. Wide ranging conversations were intertwined with detailed historical facts. This was a day that will be remembered fondly for a long time!!!! Our heartfelt thanks to Paul and Davey for a wonderful day in London!
Anna and Paul our driver were fantastic. We saw so much and learned so much. It was a great day discovering London. I would recommend this tour to everyone. Couldn’t have been happier with the tour.
What a wonderful day! Davey is an awesome young man and tour guide. We very much enjoyed our tour with him. We did the full-day option so we walked nearly 20,000 steps and saw a lot of the highlights of London. We would all recommend Davey and this tour wholeheartedly.
It was our families first trip to London and this walking tour was nothing short of amazing! Tim was a wonderful tour guide and tailored the trip around our desires. He made the experience unforgettable for myself, wife and our 8 year old daughter! Would 100% recommend!!!
We had the most incredible all-day walking tour with Vania through the heart of London. She took us to Westminster Abbey, Piccadilly Circus, and Buckingham Palace — covering so much ground while making every stop feel special. Her knowledge of London’s history and culture was exceptional, and she had a wonderful gift for storytelling that brought each landmark to life. The highlight of the day was getting to watch the Trooping the Colour — what an extraordinary experience to witness such a iconic royal tradition! Vania made sure we were perfectly positioned to take it all in. If you’re visiting London, booking a tour with Vania is an absolute must. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide to experience this magnificent city! Beware- you do walk alot and cover so of much of the city so wear comfortable shoes. We logged 17k steps from 9am to 4 pm. Worth every step!
Davey was a pleasure to be with for our half day tour of London! He helped us to customize the tour to see exactly what we wanted to. His knowledge of every facet of London and its history was phenomenal and very helpful!
The tour is comprehensive and thorough,. Our tour guide Tim was knowledgeable. He gave us options on next sites to visit.
This tour was fantastic! Rocio was an absolutely fantastic tour guide! We traveled all over and learned so much. I would request Rocio over and over again!
Davey is very knowledgeable. He catered the tour to what our likes were. He went above and beyond and we really had a fun day
We had an amazing time on the Best of London Discover Tour! Our tour guide, John, was absolutely fantastic. He took us through Westminster Abbey and was incredibly knowledgeable about every detail and piece of history inside the building. He made the tour both informative and very entertaining. John also guided us through some beautiful areas of London, including Notting Hill and Mayfair, which were awesome to see. We especially loved visiting the Food Hall and experiencing the atmosphere of the city. Ending the tour at Buckingham Palace was the perfect finale. Special kudos to our Driver Micheal - the Mercedes van was impeccable. Had charging cords for all of us and plenty of water. He was even willing to help us with reservations. Thank you, Mike Highly recommend this tour, especially with John as your guide!
Anna was an excellent guide. She used walking and public transportation to show us around the city. She was very knowledgeable and very friendly.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this tour. Davey (tour guide) and Paul (driver - we upgraded to a cab tour) were the most dynamic duo out there. Davey handled my moody ADHD preteen daughter perfectly - by the time we were done with the tour she was hugging him and wishing we had more time together. We got to see so much, and it was truly a special day. I hope we get to come back to London and if we do, we will definitely be doing a tour with these guys again. Worth every penny.
It was great. Tim Smyth was an exceptional guide. He really knows the information. I learned a lot of history besides seeing a lot of sites.
The tour was great , lots of interesting stops along the way, our guide was exceptional, and not only were the stops good, so were the conversations along the way, our guide was so informed and answered every single question we had, This tour is a must for people wanting to see all London has to offer!
The person (Helena) who worked with me a few months ago via email to set up the private tours was wonderful; she was very responsive and helpful. Our actual tour guide, Tim Smyth, was very, very good. He provided detailed, interesting and little-known information about Westminster Abbey, St. Paul’s Cathedral and London in general. These historic sites came alive for us through his sharing of knowledge.
Davey was our tour guide and we highly recommend doing a tour with him. He is so knowledgeable and has a great personality. We saw so many sights in London that we wouldn't have seen without him. If you are in London, you won't regret booking this tour!
We had an absolutely wonderful experience thanks to our tour guide, Tim. He was incredibly engaging, extremely knowledgeable, and genuinely kind throughout the entire tour. Tim brought everything to life with his stories and insights, and he made sure everyone felt included and comfortable. Our whole family enjoyed the tour immensely, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide — highly recommend Tim!
Flora our tour guide was great. She showed me around so I could get a flavor of the city. Saw so many great and historical sights. She was very informative.
Our tour with Davey was fabulous. He showed us some great spots and provided great knowledge on our walk through London. My 12 & 16 year old were highly entertained.
Our guide Davey was amazing. He was fluent in the history of all the major London sites; while also taking us off the beaten path to see places most tourist will never see. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and ready to answer any questions we might have. This was a wonderful excursion.
Helena from Discover Walks arranged a fantastic day for us. Our tour guide, Rocío, was absolutely amazing. From communications weeks before the tour to getting us on the correct bus at the end of our day (in the pouring rain), Rocío did a fantastic job. She listened to our interests and adapted the day to meet our requests. She was very personable and a great storyteller. She showed us how to use public transportation, which set us up for the rest of our trip. As a Blue Badge Guide, Rocío was very knowledgeable and kept us interested for the entire day. Would absolutely sign up for another tour with her.
We saw the areas that we wanted on this tour. Naomi gave us some interesting annevdotes that you wouldn’t hear normally. Saw some areas outside of the usual tourist areas. Enjoyed the tour very much.
Very relaxed way to see London top sites! Driver was most accommodating to our wishes. He would very easily and quickly adjust to what we wanted to see! Very good driver too!
Davy was an excellent tour guy! We were very impressed with his knowledge and delivery of information! Excellent tour
What a wonderful consolidated tour of London’s most iconic sights. Our tour guide, Anna, was extremely knowledgeable and patient as our kiddos tired often and needed some rests. Anna gave a historical crash course and tailored it to be kid-friendly. We decided not to take the car service for an extra fee and instead, walked to all of the spots. It was manageable with some food and drink kiosks and restrooms along the way. Highly recommend this tour for families traveling with kids.
Helena was so organized and made sure we had an itinerary that was everything we could hope for and more. She gave excellent suggestions for the 1/2 day your so we could get as much in as possible. Her communication was a voice and beyond. Best I have ever had on any of the tours I’ve booked. Our guide was Will, who also made contact ahead of time to introduce himself and provide his direct contact to make meeting seem less! He was kind, informative and fun! Great historic information and fun facts and stories that had us smiling the whole time!! We did all the points of interest on our itinerary, his time management was exceptional. We never felt rushed or felt we lingered too long. It was an incredible balance and we were extremely impressed. Helena and Will are professional and created an experience way above our expectations. Thank you both!!! Next time we are in London I will be booking again with this company and hope to have them again!!
We had small kids to older adults. Our guide Anna was fantastic. We elected to get a luxury car to take us all around and it was worth it. Perfect amount of walking and we hit all the sites.
Jon gave us a wonderful full day tour of London. He is friendly knowledgeable and great with kids and families. We were a group of parents grandparents and two teens for our day. He took us to the Tower of London, on thr tube, we had lunch in a pub, saw the changing of the guard, Westminster abbey, st james palace and a walk through st james park. He even dropped us off at our destination for tea. I highly recommend this tour and ask for Jon!
WOW! From beginning to end this tour was fabulous! We were contacted directly after booking to arrange exactly what we wanted for the tour and then connected with the most amazing tour guide (Rocio) and driver (Paul) who gave us the most thorough and interesting highlight tour of London. We were very impressed and so grateful!! Well worth it!
Anna was an awesome tour guide. She was incredibly well informed and very thoughtful on constructing the itinerary for what we wanted to see. Great way to get an overview of the major sights in London
This is the best tour in London and our tour guide “ Davey @ was the best. He showed us the top 5 landmarks in London as well as the history. A must do while in London!!!
I’m not a big fan of tours but this one, with Steve, was fantastic. Highly recommended for families (or anyone!)
What a fantastic day in London—we really packed in an impressive amount of iconic sights and local flavor thanks to Anna our stellar guide. Very informative and she made it very interesting. From Buckingham Palace and the Changing of the Guard to the rich art and history at the British Museum, the street vibe in Camden, and even catching a street performance at Covent Garden—that’s a perfect mix of royalty, culture, and energy. Riding the Tube, exploring charming neighborhoods, and even stopping by 10 Downing Street and Piccadilly Circus and many more sites. We’ve done London proud! Be prepared to walk.
this walking tour was absolutely fantastic! We had Keith, who was our guide and he was amazing and the history he knew about London was awesome. We walked everywhere from our hotel to Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace and all over and would recommend this to anybody…
Davey was perfect for us. Very knowledgeable and we had great conversation all day. Highly recommend! Would do it gain and see more of London!
This tour was the first thing once I got into town and Tim did an absolutely amazing job! I learned so much about the history and culture of London. Highly recommend!!
Davey was a very excellent guide. He showed us so many parts of the city and gave us the history and background on all. Loved the personalized experience. Worth every penny.
This was our family’s first visit to London so we wanted to see “the sights” but also try to get our bearings and learn the basics. We did a full day tour of London. Fantastic communication beforehand to get a feel for what we were looking for. Our guide, Davey, was truly fantastic!!! He “got us” almost immediately and figured out what we would find interesting. We got to see a great mix of historical London as well as places off the beaten path, and best of all… great places to eat. Taught us basics of navigation and we ended the day in Camden Town then up to Primrose Hill. We never felt rushed and lived our ENTIRE day!! Many thanks to Davey for taking such good care of us!
My family and I enjoyed the best day with Rocio. We booked a full day tour and hit a ton of highlights in London. Rocio was so knowledgeable and kind. We learned and saw so much. We did a few other tours on our trip and it felt like those guides really could only speak to the sites that we visited - they seemed to lack the broader information about the City that Rocio could provide. We highly recommend this tour!
