Dissapointed

Jarred_M, Oct 2022

I would love to write a glowing review but I simply can't. That is because our tour did not happen. Upon arriving in London for our layover tour we were informed that our guide was sick and a refund would be issued. No contingency plan or second option. I'm appreciative for the refund but would have rather seen a bit of the city we planned a 14hr layover to see.

Great service

Our private tour guides was great. She was knowledgeable about London and provided us a great experience for the short term we had in London.

London Heathrow layover

The best way to spend my layover in London! Becky was great and had a plan for us to see everything. Word to the wise though...bring your walking shoes as we walked 5 miles. It was totally worth it! Thanks Becky!
