Really enjoyed the Paddington Bear walking tour with Ben. A pleasant way to spend a couple of hours and learnt lots of interesting facts about where and how the films were made. Very thoughtful and amusing guide. Would recommend.

It was a really nice walk and lovely tour with guide Rory wholesale very knowledgeable about film productions. We can only recommend the tour.
Tour guide Tom was amazing. Very informative and engaging. Really enjoyed the tour and would recommend.
Fabulous and interesting, guide Tom was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining.
Brilliant! Guide was great, and funny
Great tour and some good facts and locations. Really knowledgable guide and very fun.
An amazing tour our guide was so knowledgeable and we were very lucky as there were only two of us. It was great to learn about the different filming locations and the guides knowledge about filming was a really great insight. The tour ended a bit flatly and just finished at Grubers. Not sure how you could change the end to make it more upbeat! 100% enjoyed though
A really interesting tour of the area around Paddington. Owen was a great guide.
We enjoyed our trip with Chris!
Owen was an excellent guide and full of enthusiasm. The tour started at Paddington station but then moved on to the local area, Little Venice and Portobello Road. It was great to see the sights where the films were shot and learn about the background. There was also history about Michael Bond and how the books came about.
Having seen Paddington The Musical the night before, we thought the walking tour the next day would be perfect. The audience was a mix of all ages with 4 children but the guide treated us all like school children and after an hour of a 2.5 hr tour where we hadn't even left Paddington Station we left and did our own walking tour.
Great tour! Our guide, Rory, was incredibly knowledgeable about the films and general British trivia!
Excellent tour, Russel was courteous, knowledgeable & fun and clearly enjoyed the subject matter, he was kind & accommodating to our son who has special needs, good day all round
Brilliant walking tour with engaging guide Owen really enjoyed, saw a lot of parts of London not been to before, good explanation of Paddington links.
Thank you Rory for an enjoyable walking tour. He was friendly and knowledgeable and we had a nice time.
Rory was a lovely tour guide — funny, friendly, and knowledgeable. We saw many locations from the film and had a very nice walk through several neighborhoods. Plenty of time for photo ops and you end at Portobello Road market which is a great place to end.
This was a very enjoyable walking tour centred around the Paddington movie sites. Fiona was very knowledgeable around the theme and an excellent communicator which added to the enjoyment of the walk for Paddington fans
Very informative and interesting tour. Our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable about the various Paddington films and the history on him. The cost of the tour was a good price and worth the money . Tour time was appropriate for our Paddington walking tours . The weather was cold dry and sunny .
Fiona was really friendly and happy throughout. We saw some places round London we wouldn't have otherwise seen. Interesting to hear facts about the movie and other snippets of general knowledge also. Glad we did it!
Great tour! Rory knew lots of fun facts about the Movies. Lots of walking but great for Paddington fans. You also get to participate on trivia as well!
Our guide, Owen was terrific and his book of photos helped us to relate the tour to the movie. We learned about Paddington, the movie, the author and London's neighborhoods.
Owen, the tour guide, was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and threw in a bit of humour for fun. We had an amazing time and would thoroughly recommend! You'll leave knowing lots of the secrets behind the filming of Paddington!
It was an absolutely lovely and entertaining tour! Our guide Fiona showed us all the secret gems of the Paddington film’s locations.
Russell is excellent very enthusiastic and committed and knowledgeable about Paddington bear. Highly recommend his tour
I booked this walking tour for my birthday as I have always been a Paddington fan since I was a little girl. Both my boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour which was led by Chris, who was very friendly and engaging. Chris gave us lots of information about Paddington, the original TV series and the recent films and we found it really interesting. We also visited parts of London we hadn’t been to before and even though it was very hot weather that day Chris found us lots of shady spits to stand in whilst he spoke to us. All in all it was a lovely walking tour with lots of photo opportunities! I think the tour would be suited to older/teenage children and adults mainly.
My adult daughter and l went on the Paddington walking tour. The tour guide Rory was very knowledgeable and made it interesting. There were opportunities to take pictures at different locations. I would recommend the tour to children from 10 upwards. Any younger children would possibly become disengaged. Thankyou Rory.... super tour guide.
The tour more than met my wife's and my expectations. The guide, Rory, was extremely knowledgeable and well-informed in terms of the Paddington film franchise; a real expert on the subject. Couldn't recommend too highly.
The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic, helping to bring scenes from the films to life. We enjoyed the experience!
We had a great tour! Ben was our tour guide and did an amazing job. Loads of information about the origins of Paddington and the making of the films. We would highly recommend it!
We had a great time in the sunshine discovering some unfamiliar beautiful parts of London, learning lots about the making of the Paddington films and about Michael Bond and how the creation of Paddington Bear came about. The group size was just right and the walk just long enough concluding with a short bus trip (paid individually) to Portobello Road where we were shown the location of Mr Gruber’s Antique Shop. Chris, our guide, was excellent and made the tour very enjoyable.
Well presented, interesting and informative. Great facts about all 3 films and some of the filming locations, Added bonus is the extra info on Alan Turin of Bletchley Park fame. Fiona is a great guide !
A Delightful Paddington Tour! We had a lovely time exploring the Paddington film locations, it was such an informative and enjoyable experience. Our tour guide, Owen, was absolutely brilliant, he was friendly, enthusiastic, and full of energy. I’d seen a few reviews mentioning unclear guides, but that was definitely not the case here. Owen was clear, engaging, and made the morning enjoyable. Highly recommend! Thankyou - Family from Warwick
Very informative and guide Fiona very friendly, also provided other info about landmarks and statues/people passed on tour
Amazing tour full of fun facts about Paddington movies and a great chance at exploring local hidden gems during the walk
Fiona was amazing. Very knowledgeable and fun. We had a mix of ages and easy to follow information. We had quite a bit of rain, but that never tampered her enthusiasm for Paddington. This tour is excellent for all ages (as long as you don't mind walking).
Highly recommend for any Paddington lover or even a casual-enjoyer! Learned new things to love about Paddington and got a great tour of the city. Shout out to Owen for being a GREAT and energetic tour guide.
Ben is a great tour guide; very knowledgeable. Family friendly tour with walking and one bus ride on London Public Transit.
A walking tour for any Paddington bear fan. You’ll discover fun facts about the movies and books, filming locations, the history of its creation, and also seeing the various statues of the beloved bear. Easy to walk at a normal pace.
Ben was a great guide ... He was friendly an answered questions happily.... He was engaging and made the tour interesting and enjoyable. We visited places we have never been before in London. Brilliant time, thank you!
Owen was an engaging guide. We all learnt so much. My now 10 year old grandson wanted to do this as part of his birthday outing and really enjoyed it. The route in and around Paddington and Little Venice was quiet and pleasant contrasting well with the heaving Portobello market outside "Mr Gruber's" shop. We want to watch the movies again to spot all the places and clever tricks of the movie makers! Yes there is a lot of walking but we knew that!
We had a lovely tour with Fiona on the Paddington tour. Really fun & informative. Interacted with all the group making it a lovely experience 🧸❤️
Fiona was our guide - she was very informative and full of energy providing her knowledge of Paddington Bear 🐻
The Paddington Tour was a really memorable experience, my daughter and I loved it! Tom was an excellent tour guide, very entertaining!
We travelled from Australia and this was a must do thing on my itinerary. We did the tour on the 2nd March. I can’t remember the tour guides name but he went too fast and at one point of the tour he didn’t wait for the whole group and we didn’t know where the rest of the group had gone being first time visitors to London left a bad feeling. We eventually found them but had to tell the tour guide to slow down. If I did this tour again I would hope for a different guide.
A lovely walk around Paddington surrounds and Little Venice. The tour was mainly about the Paddington movies, not the history of Paddington Bear as such. Rory, the host, was lovely, friendly and knowledgeable.
A great way to see another part of London. Very knowledgable guide (Chris). I learnt a lot of interesting information. Good to see a number of locations from the Paddington films. I would suggest this is more interesting for adults than the children but a good experience overall.
Our tour guide was passionate, fun and informative. Interesting places related to film locations as well as statues in dedication.
Owen was clearly very knowledgeable and was very engaging. From the very youngest to the eldest on the tour, he had time, humour and interesting information to engage all. It was the off script knowledge and humour which really made the tour.
Owen was very knowledgeable and so lovely...having a chat with my son and revealing interesting facts. He also managed some rude tourists (who spoke while he was speaking in their own language) with patience. We had a lovely time. THANK YOU.
Absolutely appalling service, if I could give a ‘0’ rating I would !!! . Travelled over 70 miles from the south cost for the tour guide not to arrive. Called numbers listed and got an automated voice mail to say email, tried several attempts to make contact with no success . Waited for over an hour , searching all around for any signs of tour or tour guide. Shocking , would not recommend Brit movie tours 😡
