I got to learn stuff I didn't know about Harry Potter, and some history of London. The length of the tour was perfect. We had a great sized group to make it a fun game. Geebs was also very helpful in telling people where they could grab dinner or get a taxi when the tour was finished. She also took great photos of everyone in front of a cathedral. Geebs is a very talented person in many aspects. I wish I could go on another tour with her

David is an excellent local guide! He contacted me days before the tour just to confirm everything…read moreand answer any questions I had. He also let me know that the time was changing the night before our tour, which was very useful information as the hotel did not mention anything about a time change and we were not aware of it. David is very knowledgeable and shares a lot of information while driving to each destination. We learned about not only the sites we were set to see but also about the buildings, statues and areas that we passed along the way. We started our day at Hampton Court. David provided us with tips on how to make the most of our time there. We were able to explore on our own and then he picked us up for our lunch break. David had reservations already made for us at a cute restaurant on the river. We ate inside the restaurant and David stayed outside and was ready to go when we were done. The food and service there was excellent. We then continued to Windsor Castle. We were able to take all the time we wanted touring the castle and then shopped around the town afterwards. When we were ready, I simply sent David a text and he was there and ready to go in 5 minutes. We had a pleasant drive back to our hotel with great conversation. Ask him anything about the area and he will be able to answer with confidence. David is also knowledgeable regarding accessibility at the sites. My mom needed to use a cane that day and David was very patient and assisted her with getting in and out of the van. Additionally, we asked David about local markets to visit the next day and he provided us with information on several different ones. We went with the market he recommended and my mom had a blast walking around and shopping. Bottom line, we had a great time, we appreciated his service, and we would definitely book with David again.

The website said it would be 3 hours, but Richard had us out for 6 and we had a blast! We stopped at six pubs and learned a bunch of interesting information. Richard was very informative, funny, and conversational with the group when the facts were on pause. He even gave us other recommendations for our trip, we highly recommend this tour. If we didn't have a packed schedule, we would book another pub crawl with him immediately. It's a great way to learn about London and sample a number of different pubs and their brews!

Four of us had a stopover in London and wanted to check out the main attractions (Abbey, Parliament, Tower of London, etc...). We booked a private tour which turned out to be a highlight of our visit. Nicky is not only well versed in the history of London, but has a fabulous sense of humor and the ability to bridge the past and present by weaving in modern day tidbits tied to historical relics. It amused the 4 of us in our 50's and I'm sure would make history fun for today's youth.

We did the Drink London tour with Chris. The tour was about 3.5 hours long and included stops at 5…read morepubs. I'd say this is really more of a historic walking tour with a drinking component. We learned a lot of interesting facts about "The City" and all of the pubs selected for the tour were unique and had interesting histories. Overall it was a fun way to spend an afternoon. Drinks are not included in the price of the tour, so guests are on their own. With 5 pub stops, you could potentially get pretty drunk (if you wanted to). My only suggestion is that I think this tour would run better with 4 stops and kept to 3 hours. By the end we were pretty hungry and the pubs were getting pretty crowded as the office crowd left work had headed out for a pint.

Did the Harry Potter tour and Essential London tours during my stay in London. Both our guides,…read moreJamie and Sam, were informative and entertaining. I wouldn't say that the itineraries are anything out of the ordinary (it's stops you could plan out yourself with research), but it was a good experience to go with an organized group tour. Both tours started/ended on time and booking was seamless. The tours, as others have noted, are pay-what-you-will, so it's up to you what you want to pay (I paid 10 pounds each). They do accept card payment, but cash seems to be preferred.

I'm a big fan of free walking tours whenever I travel, and Strawberry Tours was a great find. I did…read morethe East tour and the West tour, both with Adam. He was so knowledgeable about the city, both in its history and culture! I especially loved his quirky stories, like about the executions that happened at the Tower of London and the dog buried by some politician and why. Now that I'm reading the reviews, I'm seeing a lot more options than were originally advertised in the brochure I got from my hostel, and I wish I'd known about them, as they all sound interesting and thorough! However, I do think the East and West tours are a great starting point and foundation into learning about the city if you're new to it. Look up their offerings on their website! The East tour I did covered St. Paul's Cathedral, Tower of London, The Monument, Leadenhall Market, Bank of England, Lloyd Building, Royal Courts of Justice, and Temple Church. The West tour covered Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace (from far away), St. James' Palace, Leicester Square (meeting point), 10 Downing Street, and the Horse Guards Parade. We were supposed to walk by the Churchill War Rooms, Trafalgar Square, and the National Gallery, but those were missed. And FYI, Big Ben is covered with scaffolding for the next year and a half for renovations, so you won't be seeing that, which was a bummer. The people on the tours themselves seemed to keep to themselves, so they weren't very social, probably because they're just quick day happenings. Regardless, look up Strawberry Tours when in London if you have a couple hours and are up to to walk around.

Our tour guide was on time, extremely knowledgeable, and our driver did an exceptional job navigating the heavy traffic, getting us to where we needed to be. The vehicle was top notch as well.
