What a great way to spend a Sunday morning - even if the clocks had just gone forward!! I'd booked this tour using a voucher from the Telegraph and was unsure what to expect but Emma was helpful with the booking, giving a choice of dates and confirmation of time/meeting place etc as well as advice on footwear. The tour... More

As a Londoner in my mid-twenties, I'd never been on a London tour before and if I'm honest, I viewed tours as something that you do abroad when you don't ahve a clue about the city you are in (usually getting ripped off and becoming bored in the process). However, a friend recommended this tour to me and I had... More

We absolutely loved this tour. We did the Haunted Walk and it was fun to see and hear the history behind the city we live in. Our tourguide Emma was knowledgable and varied her stories between fact and fiction. I would recommend these to both Londoners and tourists alike. We are eyeing some of her other tours and can't wait... More

Hope this is your company Emma, otherwise it will make no sense at all. Walking tours with humour. Emma brings London alive with her interesting and thought provoking tours. We have done 2 of them now , each as informative and fun as the other. May long they continue. More

We met at Liverpool Street station and from there we walked past various places including: Petticoat Lane, Shoreditch Market, Brick Lane, ending our walk at the church were the Cray brother's funerals were held. As we walked we were told about the social history of the area, notorious people (Jack The Ripper and the Crays) and famous events. I loved... More

Having lived in London my entire life, I've never felt the need to go on any tour excursions, until now... A friend recommended Coutours to me, specifically the Hidden London tour that takes you around Charing Cross and the West end. The tour lasted about an hour and a half, lead by our very entertaining (and knowledgable) tour guide Mark.... More

My partner booked it via wowcher. The lady who runs to tour Emma maintained contact with my partner and was extreamly helpful with dates etc. The tour its self was amazing. It was very informative but done in light hearted way so it wasn't to much to soon. Emma was very funny and although the weather was extreamly cold she... More

Excellent walking tour, directed by Mark, in a small group (which is ideal for this sort of tour). Full of lots of historic facts and interesting / amusing anecdotes, delivered at the right pace so that they can be remembered! The first Coutours tour we have done - but certainly not the last! More

We did the "Shocking East End" tour which included the usual Jack the Ripper info and some more unknown gems life east of the city - like the origin of fish and chips and we walked through the hidden streets of spitalfields. Even saw where Tracey Emin lived. Did it with a group of friends - the tour guide called... More

My daughter and myself always do these tours when visiting other cities so thought it was about time we explored our own home town. As always the success depends very much upon the personality and knowledge of the guide. I am pleased to say that Emma scores top marks in both categories! Her knowledge is second to none and her...
