Great Walking Tour with Will - The Westminster Walking Guided Tour is a fantastic experience from start to finish. Will is a very knowledgeable guide who pointed out all the important sites and made them come alive with historical information. The walking pace was perfect, allowing plenty of time for photos, questions, and enjoying all the sites. I truly recommend this walking guided tour!

Best 3 hours spent in London! - This tour was one of my favorite activities in London! Our tour guide Nick was fantastic—an incredible story teller who kept you so engaged throughout. Historical, funny, witty, and more! Would recommend 100% to anyone who wants to get deep in the history of all the sites and buildings in the city of Westminster!

Great tour, I recommend if you want to see and learn about the Westminster area! - This was a great way to see several historic and interesting sites while learning all the background stories. Our guide, Will, was patient, informative and entertaining. While there was a lot of walking (4 to 4.5 miles I think), it was spread over three hours and the pace was easy so it was manageable. There were 20 on our tour and everybody was able to keep up. I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get a good overview of the sites in the Westminster area.

A great tour! - We enjoyed our tour of Westminster Abbey full of great information and history of the Abbey. It was Easter weekend, with heavy crowds, so we especially appreciated the opportunity to access some parts not available to the general public, such as the choir loft and chapel of St. Edward. Our tour guide, Alice, offered interesting information and knowledgeable answers to questions and shared her enthusiasm for the upkeep of the Abbey and its treasures. A much more engaging experience than an audio guide and would highly recommend!

Lots of jokes - This was a very interesting tour of London. We had an average size group not too big. Our guide was a man who was very knowledgeable, but kept trying to make jokes to make us laugh. That became old.
