We did the "Old Bailey Insight & Legal london" tour in January 2020. Our guide was Tim Wood. Tim led the tour very well. He was very well informed, told the various stories of the courthouses in detail and the tour was informative and entertaining at all times. I can only recommend everyone to book this tour!…

We booked onto the talk given by Tim in the Viaduct Tavern and it was brilliant. So, so interesting; you get an overview of the history of the Old Bailey and some memorable trials that have happened there. Tim is a great guide, he's knowledgeable and given that he was a journalist covering criminal trials for 20 years you get a real insight into the justice system. I would definitely recommend this and will book onto another of Tim's talks soon!…

The best guided tour I have had in the UK, a memorable and interesting day. Tim is a welcoming and knowledgeable host. The tour was packed with interesting facts and lots to see. Tim really knows his stuff. I really enjoyed the day and the the way Tim runs the tour it does not feel like it is a job, he shows his passion for the courts and his genuine interest in educating the public. I highly recommend this tour, it was a real eye opener and I have been speaking about it for days!…

This was a really interesting tour led by Tim. He took us into the Royal Courts of Justice and gave lots of information about its history and the building. We then went on to Lincoln's Inn, tucked away in the middle of London. From there we went to the Old Bailey for more fascinating information. We had already been given a list of court cases at the Old Bailey that day so we were shown where we could leave our bags and phones if we wanted to visit one of the trials. We went back at 1.50pm ready for the courts reopening at 2pm. All in all an extremely interesting day. Highly recommended.…
