Excellent, fascinating tour - Excellent tour with very knowledgeable and competent guide Colin. It's a well-planned little walk with lots of interesting sights, including surprising older buildings and a couple of transport moments with Hidden London resonances. A nice wander down through Lincoln's Inn Fields contrasts with Embankment Gardens and their sewer/Underground connections. All in all a fascinating tour, exceedingly well-delivered. Thank you!

Boring, overly expensive stroll through Covent Garden area - This might have been one of the most uninspiring walking tours I have ever been on. There was nothing "hidden" about it, we just explored the Covent Garden area with a very slight focus on transport. The guide seemed annoyed from the get-go and delivered her mostly unconnected inputs without any enthusiasm. This tour is definitely not worth the money.
