“We booked the Landmarks & Gems tour for October 17th. Our tour guide, James, was an absolute gem. We were both nervous about biking through London (haven't been on bikes in some time!), but James made those nerves disappear. He provided lots of interesting tidbits and hilarious jokes, all of which made the experience much more enjoyable. It was a perfect way to start our trip, and gave us a great first impression of London.”

“Great tour and Marti was the perfect tour guide, very accommodating when we needed to tweak the time of the tour, helped by the fact we were only ones on it. As such Marti customised tour to our likes, as an artist I was keen to see the amazing street art, so we had the right mix of art, pubs and music. Marti finished the tour at a Ukeleles jamming session which was so good we were still there when he arrived with his next tour later that evening. Highly recommend and love the fact he keeps his tours small, he said never more than 8 - have done walking…”
