Another happy customer described their guide as “an absolute hoot”, adding: “This was a great way to end our trip in London. The guide was knowledgeable and funny and engaged the entire group. It was like doing a pub crawl with old friends. I did learn I do not care for gin but do like rhubarb cider so it was a win, win all around. I highly recommend this tour.”
