Every single room was so remarkable and the whole parliament was full of details and colours. Nick , our trip guide was one of the best trip guides I ever meet. He knew every single detail of the parliament and he answered our questions with so much decency , accuracy and politeness , I highly recommend him as a trip guide!

Kevin was such a sweet man. Extremely knowledgeable, and very passionate about his job. It makes the experience enjoyable when your tour guides face lights up as much as yours when you turn a corner and see something amazing.

Fantastic day with Kevin, what a thoroughly nice chap! Extremely knowledgeable, very enthusiastic, full of unknown and fun facts. What Kevin doesn't know about London frankly isn't worth knowing. We were very impressed from start to finish. The tour was well worth it, and just what we wanted. We were only sad that we hadn't stopped half way to enable us to buy him lunch in one of pubs he had recommended. We will definitely book again on another tour on our next visit to London. Thank you Kevin and Stephen.
