Laurence did a guided bus tour of London for an international group of delegates I was hosting at work. The trip was comprehensive, and Laurence's commentary was both illuminating and entertaining. Very much recommended! More

After reading the other reviews here on Trip Advisor, we chose Laurence to be our guide for our first full day in London. We are a family of four (two parents + two college-aged sons). We were looking for a guide to give us a tour of the traditional sights (e.g. Westminster Abbey, Changing of the Guards, Big Ben) plus... More

I've worked in the City of London for more than 20 years and thought I knew it well . Laurence took us on a tour back in time , with a balance of laughs and intrigue and we discovered all sorts of fascinating stuff . He tailored the tour specifically to our group and it must have been very good... More

“We chose Laurence for a themed guided tour for a group of around 13 of us as he came highly recommended. We think he is worth every penny and more! He took us on a spooky and eerie Jack the Ripper walk which he made so atmospheric we all needed a stiff drink afterwards! We wanted more! The next was... More

Laurence is patient, congenial , knowledgable, and conscientious. He was willing to exchange numerous emails prior to our visit. He was liked by ever member of our family--quite a feat. His blue badge wealth of information and prompt curious service earn him high marks. More

Took the "Beatlemania" tour. Our guide was Laurence Summers. He was delightful. He was funny, knowledgeable and so engaging. It was so neat to see all the places that I have been hearing about since I bought my first Beatles 45 when I was 11 years old. Seeing Carnaby Street and Abbey Road through this tour truly made it real... More

We just got back from a vacation in England and had a wonderful time. We dined at great restaurants and saw lots of sights. But by far the best part of our trip to London was spending time with Laurence as our guide. We enjoyed multiple days and half days with him, visiting Hampton Court, the new Roald Dahl Museum...

I would 100% recommend Laurence, he is knowledgeable and will tailor a tour to suit your group on our latest we did a tour of the City... More
