The tour was very good. Considering how busy it was inside the Abbey , our guide was able to walk us through and give us great information.

It was a great tour with a very informative and engaging guide for Westminster Abbey (I think her name was Emily).

this tour was like a Master class in British history. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, knew the ropes, how to get us into were we needed to be. I cannot recommend this highly enough

Throughly enjoyed the history, location and atmospheric feeling of both iconic places. Emily guided us around Westminster Abbey and we found her pace, articulation and story telling very informative and engaging - 5 star Unsure of the guides name who guided us around Houses of Parliament but whilst we found it informative and sometimes engaging the pace, articulation and story telling was inconsistent, being lost to just a bunch of facts and feeling rushed every now and then. Also there was some repetition of information between the tours, such as Oliver Cromwell. So a good 4 star . We still loved the overall tour and would highly recommend it, especially early as it got really busy in the Abbey.
