Travel guides and tips

  • London is one of Europe’s most happening cities with plenty to discover and explore. To dive deep into landmarks from bygone eras and contemporary popular attractions and to get the best out of your time in London, guided tours are your best option.
    From Wembley Stadium and Tower of London, to the Shakespeare Globe Theater or even the Warner Bros. Studios, you’re bound to become more familiar with London’s rich and diverse history with your expert local guide. They will accompany you on the tour and enlighten you with interesting stories about the landmark’s history, significance, cultural impact, and general trivia. Additionally, some of the best tours in London may include priority access to the city’s landmarks, allowing you to bypass the queues and save time. 
  • Generally, guided tours in London have an expert guide fluent in English, but on some tours such as a Harry Potter film locations guided tour, you can also opt for languages such as French and Italian. You may also find some guided tours in German, Mandarin, French, and more languages, on purchase of the right experience.
  • It depends on what you opt for. While some tours offer audio guides for self-guided tours, others may offer an expert tour guide, and a few may offer both. For experiences which offer audio guides to London’s best attractions, you can pick it up at the entrance of the landmark and explore at your own pace, and gain insightful knowledge. Often your guides may be available in multiple languages like English, Italian, French, Mandarin, Spanish, and more. Tours such as the Churchill War Rooms tour with audio guide, a London self-guided audio tour, or the Westminster Abbey guided Houses of Parliament audio guide tour are some experiences worth trying out.  
  • Some guided tours may include transport based on what you opt for, while others might not. Transport may vary from hotel pickups to coach transfers. You can check this information on your ticket. The ones that do include transfers are of two kinds: pick-up from a hotel or a common meeting point in the city. The Spirit of London tour and the London Experience with lunch are a few guided tours in London that include transport. 
  • Yes. Most guided tours include skip-the-line entry to various attractions in London, allowing you to breeze past the long queues and enter with ease. Your guide would escort you past the queues and accompany you through the entry before diving into a fun and informative tour. Experiences such as Shakespeare Globe Theatre London, tickets for Royal Observatory Greenwich, and more are a few that offer skip-the-line entry.

Great trip and the added commentary made the trip. A shame we couldn't get outside upstairs on boat but still a very enjoyable experience.

We took the first boat trip at 10.10am with only a few other people. The guide spoke clearly and took us along in a humorous way. The view from the boat is very special.

This tour experience was a birthday treat for a grandson and a grandad Grandson has wanted to go to a match for as long as I can remember, but unfortunately we couldn't get tickets so we decided on a tour instead. The whole area at Anfield is electrifying Atmosphere of other visitors, tye friendliness of all the staff, it's just brilliant from start to finish We where taken round by 2 very knowledgeable and friendly men Joe and Tom They answered all questions that where being asked and they have a few little jokes aswel, really nice guys We where all so in awe of walking where our Liverpool players and other celebs had walked Touched the Anfield sign like so many people have, it was just a great day, great experience and memories like this are priceless 🥰 Kids and grandad went home very happy and still talking about it 😊

We had friends over from Ireland visiting us in North Wales. We had a fantastic time, Gordon our tour person was brilliant he explained everything so well. We thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. We would all certainly recommend it to our Liverpool supporter friends. The booking system was very easy to do.

Very difficult to find our meeting point. This needs to be simpler for tourists who are not familiar with the city. Even locals were not sure where our meeting place was! We found it just in time as our group was ready to go. So glad we gave ourselves the extra time to navigate ourselves. Once our tour started it was all worth the trouble. Our tour guide Sara was charming with a sense of humor. She was lovely. Well explained walking tour and excellent areas chosen to see the changing of the guard's marching band. We highly recommend this tour.

ticketing - very easy to do and to use for all our reservations (3 - Frameless, the Eye, day tour) The guide for the day tour (Guided magic of London Tour with Afternoon tea at Harrods) was excellent. The bus was very confortable, and because we were the only ones going to Harrods, they took us with a private taxi to Harrods and up to the "Georgian".
