Secret London 2025 - We travel to London often, but had not seen the areas or heard the history behind them of the places that were covered during the tour. Our guide was well-informed and articulate. It was a hot day, and Paul was thoughtful and careful about keeping us in the shade and giving us the opportunity to get water.

Secret London Tour with Paul in June 2025: excellent! - I already had some experience of Fun London Tours tours and it did not disappointed ;-) Paul, our guide and Stephen Merchant's lookalike, was an amazing story teller, telling us very interesting history of some quite discreet parts of London's history, taking us to some places I walked pass by dozens of times before and never taking notice! A most excellent experience and my wife and I will most certainly repeat with Fun London Tours for some more exploration of London ;-)

Average tour - The tour was all right. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. But in terms of the monuments and stories seemed a little weak. We were expecting a little more "interesting" places and more dramatic facts.

Not impressed with this tour. - I was not impressed with the stops on this your. Also, it was very hot (28c) that day and standing in the sun was not good. I felt that one item could have been explained where we were standing instead of crossing the street.
