Our customers say...
"Karen took a group of us on a tour of Westminster Abbey, Parliament Square, Whitehall and London's Theatreland. Every moment was full of the most interesting facts about great historical moments and monuments in London. Karen was a very attentive tour guide and delighted to answer our questions. Highly recommended!"
Julie
"Last April, Karen took us on a tour in Westminster Abbey. It was engaging from start to finish. She is a born story-teller and brings history to life with interesting details and fun facts (although life wasn't always fun in the old days:;-)). I appreciated how she kept the group together (we were numerous)in a diplomatic and friendly way and built a good connection. She is super knowledgeable about the abbey but doesn't overload you with info and keeps up the pace. Especially for a non UK resident like myself, I truely enjoyed listening to someone so passionate about her city and history! Thanks, Karen, for an unforgettable tour!"
