While the tour is what I expected. I felt rushed getting to all the activities didn't help that on guide was new on the job (Sally?) and was learning the ropes at our expense.

The tour was quite interesting and gave us good enough time at each of the sights. Our tour guide Ms Sue was quite informative and had an interesting way of explaining things and narrating the stories and history.

Liked the itinerary except for the photo opportunity of Westminster Abbey. I'm not sure if it's really the best spot :( From where we took the photos, a portion of the structure is covered by vehicles (I don't mind if it's only cars but most of the time, by buses...just imagine what you'll see in the photos :( )

I would not recommend the lunch to people I would suggest they did their own thing for that time. Lunch was disappointing especially the environment. I would have preferred a sandwich and drink over looking anything in the area rather than the 'underground' environment of what would obviously be far more appropriate for the party event intent of the venue. I have been to this venue for an evening on the occasion of Charles and Dianna's wedding 30 or so years ago.

Our tour guide Margo was great- informative and humorous. She kept the tour going and gave us interesting points along the way. I loved all the things we did. It gave us a good taste of London and the value for the money was excellent.

We overall enjoyed the tour but felt a little rushed in some places while staying too long in other. The pub for lunch was good, but they squished us together like cattle. Our tour guide disappeared on the group a couple of times leaving the group to figure things out. The boat ride was uneventful but the eye was fun.

Destacar en especial al guía Godofredo. Encantador, simpático y excelente guía con el idioma español.

Special note in Geoffrey guide. Charming, friendly and excellent guide to the Spanish language.

O passeio e bom, so que achei que deveria parar nos pontos mais importantes, pensei que nos iriamos para na Abadia de Westminster, no Parlamento, na Praca Trafalgar Square e outros pontos. Como o passeio e o dia todo, nao consegui conhecer os monumentos acima mencionados. Sem falar que o guia so falava ingles e eu nao entedia nada. O almoco nao foi no lugar informado no site, almocamos proximo a London Eyes e nao no Covent Garden, com isto nao conheci o famoso distrito.

Due to the guide beeing late we missed the trooper at Household Cavalry Museum and half of the the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace.

Also the mixing with Spanish made it hard to follow what she talked. She said couple of times something that made me feel like she wasn't very much aware of things.

We loved the guide of The Tower of London.

The cruise at Thames was an ordinary quick boattrip on standard route ship.

Anyway in all the tour was London in nutshell which we expected so
it was a good way to spend a very cold day and see as much as possible. Would have been wise to put some more clothes on, there was a lot of time standing outside.

Our guide was excellent, she was very prepared and she loved her job. Unfortunately she couldn't speak Italian therefore we missed some interesting details of some stories.

I was looking forward to the London Eye ; somehow it was slightly disappointing as the views below were not spectacular. The 4-D show before the ride was far better in showing up good parts. Lunch I thot cld have been the famous fish n chips esp when we ate at a place where that dish was it's speciality. Perhaps we were expecting a lot so the sights at Tower Of L and Buckingham Palace didnt quite deliver esp when the rain reduced it further. As a package , probably a hop on/off with fast-lane admission included might be better.

Awesome day! Seen a lot. Recommend purchasing the lunch (it was ready when the group arrived at the pub, allowing more shopping time). Guide was very knowledgable. Did head count at every stop.

Our tour guide AKA Ruth was an excellent guide, had a good sence of humour as well as a wealth of knowledge and history. Would take it again if we could.She should get a raise! The lunch hour to ourselves gave us time to reset our pace and talk among ourselves, I would recommend it as opposed to the booked lunch.

Re the booking - easy and handled very professional by email. Felt we should have been advised to check at the concierge desk for a pick up in our area when we arrived (which we did but were not told to do this). It saved us from going to the main depot.

Re the tour - Hotel pickup worked well. Very experienced tour guide on board who was excellent. Tour was done in English and Spanish. Would have preferred just English. Locations, stops and information were great. At the end of the tour we had to find our own way back to our hotel from the EYE which I thought was a bit odd as we were not advised of this at booking but we chose to walk back and it took us an hour.

Our tour guide, Ruth, was excellent because she never shut up. This is a good thing!! She was very informative, had great wit and a good sense of humour. With the aid of her blue umbrella she was able to keep a busload of tourists under control during, at times, difficult circumstances. Five stars for Ruth!! A trip back to Victoria Station at the end of the day, rather leaving us all at the London Eye to make our own way back, would have earnt another star for the tour.
