“Had a great time and Anna was a terrific guide, full of energy and charisma! Got to know SoHo intimately with lots of recommendations and stories to mark the way. Be warned for those who don’t drink much or are with kids-This was an alcohol heavy tour, not something that I was aware of prior to arriving to the tour itself so be forewarned and there were no nonalcoholic options available either which was unfortunate.”
Plan a private London walking tour around your interests, with a local host such as Becky, Darryl, Tom, or Tem. Choose 3 to 8 hours and a flexible start time, then focus on landmarks, food, creative districts, or lesser-known streets. Attraction tickets, food, drinks, and transport cost extra.
