- taylerh7040 contributionsFull Day of WC, SUA, and OI loved all the Christmas trees and other decorations that were up at Warwick Castle. The mulled wine there was very good. Stratford and Oxford are cute and good for literary people.Written 3 December 2024
- taylerh7040 contributionsChristmas LightsGeorge was very informative and what he was saying was interesting. Not only did he point out Christmassy things, but also general facts about London, the Royals, and other British facts. Tony did a great job driving us aroundWritten 3 December 2024
- MichaelHviid0 contributionsCity of Christmas LightsChristmas lights in London. It was beatiful and our guide, Robin, made an excellent performance as storyteller and guide. Funny and with a comprehensive knowledge of almost anything on the route. Our driver was doing an impressive performance, getting is through a more than dense traffic. We really enjoyed ourselves.Written 3 December 2024
- karid9130 contributionsWaste of timeI don’t usually write bad reviews, but this tour was so bad I had to. Our guide (I think her name was Deick - or something like that) walked really fast and way ahead of us so we couldn’t talk to her or ask any questions. She gave us very little information about Jack the Ripper - nothing about how he killed, who they thought it might be, how many victims….nothing. She took us to one location that a body was found and the other locations she pointed down the street and said another body was found over there, but we won’t go there. We actually felt like we were on a Jewish history tour. She told us about when, why and how they immigrated. Took us to several Jewish temples - it was weird. We seen and heard about all the poor people and where they lived. Towards the end of the tour she pulled out her phone and read on overview about Jack the Ripper. It was messed up and a complete waste of 90 minutes!Written 3 December 2024
- Kerrie M0 contributionsFast if time is limitedOur driver did a wonderful job taking us to and from Windsor Castle. He gave us commentary the whole way which we found very interesting . Windsor castle is a must visit. Had a wonderful half day it’s fast but enough if time is limited.Written 3 December 2024
- karid9130 contributionsGreat value!We booked the 24 plus 24 with the walking tours and boat ride - Great value! It was nice not having to try to see all 3 routes in one day. Our guide on the blue route was Emma - and she was awesome. Lots of great information with fun bits of humor. (Tell your mum that we loved all the dates!!!)Written 3 December 2024
- daryld7590 contributionsFind your own way backWhat an experience. First we gathered at the meeting point right by a bus stop 10am. Which I could be forgiven for assuming was where the bus would get us. Nope. The rain started and we had to walk a block away for another bus stop and wait in the rain. The bus didn’t leave on time 10:20. There was traffic (not their fault) so we got to the studios later than expected. 11:30. The tour was packed out. When we reached the halfway point I realized it was already 2 and the pickup time on my wristband was 3. No way we’d make it. Would have to run through the rest of the studio. I contacted them to ask if we can get on another bus or what’s the policy if you’re late. Literally the response was “find your own way back”. Nothing. Wouldn’t check if the next bus had space. No attempt to help. Just “we’re not responsible for the crowd or how long you take. The time is the time”. Shocked and disappointed at the service. Pros: we arrived alive Cons: couldn’t care less about the customer really. Would not use again.Written 3 December 2024

- Mitchell B0 contributionsGreat way to see city at ChristmasA great way to see the city at Christmas. April, our guide, was wonderful. Incredibly fun, friendly and knowledgeable.

- dirkbW669DT0 contributionsWonderful guideWe had this christmas Light tour on 1/12/24 with our guide Emma. She really is a wonderful guide who talks passionately about her city london and who tells so many stories that you never would hear. After the tour she walked us to trafalgar square. So Emma if you ever visit belgium again, contact us❤️Written 2 December 2024

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
