Great tour with a wonderful Tour Guide!

We thoroughly enjoyed our private tour of the London sites with Alex, which included our extended family of 3 adults and 5 kids ages 7-11. We felt like we saw so many of the key London sites in one short day, which was great for our short time in London. Alex was also so knowledgeable about London’s history, provided us with great stories, answers to our questions, and advice for our tour and the rest of our trip. While the tour had quite a bit of walking, we were so often in the right place at the right time, and it was never too much for the kids (though they sure slept well that night!). Our favorite of the tour was definitely the Tower of London, including the Beefeater tour and seeing the Crown Jewels, but we enjoyed it all. Just make sure you leave plenty of time to explore the Tower before it closes. We wish we could’ve done another day when we could’ve seen Westminster Abbey, but it was closed the day we had available for the tour. All in all, I would not hesitate to recommend this tour, and if Alex is your tour guide, you’ll be in excellent hands and care!
Excellent Full Day Tour

Jamie was a wonderful tour guide, well-versed in his knowledge of history. He easily answered our questions. He was also very easy to be around which was significant because it was just my husband and I during the tour. Jamie was flexible with the schedule as it was a rainy day (easier to do since it was just two of us). Highly recommend this tour with Jamie and Live Tours!
