Alex was very friendly and told us a lot about the history of the statues, buildings and the sites we walked around. We were so interested that we didn't realised how much we walked. Thanks!

This was such an amazing activity! James H was sooo informative and passionate about everything he talked about. I already told my family and three friends about this tour and told them to book it when they come to London. This was worth it!

LThe tour with James B was interesting and entertaining! We didn’t want it to end. Even my teens paid attention to his stories. 3 hours well spent!

Our guide was great, he told us lots of details about the buildings and places we visited and he was a fantastic speaker, really fun to listen to. However, we realised that for our family a tour at our own place would have been better. For example in the tour you only get to see Buckingham Palace from far away, and St James Palace only from the back. Also the Civitatis advertisement as "free tour" is questionable, as then the guide tells you that typical tips are 25 GBP per person.

The guides always make recommendations about tipping for the tour. Some participants are not aware that the tour involves a payment. Even so, each visitor is free to give as much money as he/she wants. We apologize if this has caused any trouble.

James, our guide, did know the most iconic moments of England's History but also has the ability to turn the facts into tales that cached the audience of all of us. It also explained anecdotes of every place we stayed: all salted with surprises and good English humor. 100% recomendable.

I booked a tour in another country but my flight got cancelled and ended up staying in London. Thought would be good idea to book a tour and was the best possible idea! Will (Willy) was really amazing, he gave all the historical true facts and also a little twist stories that made the group laugh! I really enjoyed the tour, time went so fast and even with the rain, walking was super enjoyable. I was happy to tip him a bit extra for all the effort and great job he did.

Die Tour mit Carolina war sicherlich ein Highlight unserer Londonreise. Alles Wissenswerte zu den einzelnen Sehenswürdigkeiten wurde auf überaus unterhaltsame Art vermittelt. Unvergessen die Darstellung der kriegstaktischen Winkelzüge der Trafalgar- Schlacht! Wir hatten alle großen Spaß dabei! Absolut empfehlenswert! Translate this opinion into English.

The tour with Carolina was definitely a highlight of our trip to London. Everything worth knowing about the individual sights was conveyed in a very entertaining way. The depiction of the military tactics of the Battle of Trafalgar is unforgettable! We all had a lot of fun! Highly recommended! Opinion translated. Show original.

Carolina, our guide, was excellent, even though she was from the US, she knew a lot from UK and their history. She was very energetic, with a great sense of humor and kept all the group interested, even with the very sunny and hot day. My son of 13 was also really very happy with this tour.

Great! The guide, Carolina, was amazing, patient and always kept an eye on the group to ensure everyone was safe and enjoyed the experiences we found ahead, plus the tons of interesting bits and pieces if history that help us understand more about British culture and history. Will always recommend.

The London Tour was excellent. Dave our tour guide was amazing! He presented the tour in an interesting manner. There were about 40 people in our group, everyone was engaged right from the beginning to the end. We learnt new facts about the City of London and City of Westminster. Thanks so much Civitatis!

It was enjoyable and our guide was knowledgeable and gave some interesting information along the way. I’d have given 5 stars but the group was far too big, which made it difficult to stay together in busy London streets. We got split up from the group and missed part of the tour. I’d go again to finish it. Other than this issue, I’d recommend it.

Charlotte made us feel part of the majesty life, she organize the tour in a way that we could attend the « parade » before the speach of the queen at the parlement. She waas lively, full of good stories about London and the history. Now in french... Charlotte nous a permis de faire un tour spectaculaire et ses commentaires et points d’histoire étaient appropriés et amusants. Son atout principal est sa joie communicatrice et son plaisir de faire visiter sa ville. Nous avons grandement apprécié...

For 3 hours walking tour we saw Trafalgar square, San James Palace, Buckingham Palace front far distance and finished front Westminster Abbey. Every one can reach this place easily and read something about history, but idea for walking tour to see something more or in between landmark to see something different. The way we walked was short, a cross the park and not good for people who want to see more.

Y avait-il possibilité de réserver un guide qui parlait français? Comprenant assez bien l’anglais usuel, il n’était pas facile de comprendre le guide sur l’histoire de Londres...surtout pour les enfants...dommage! Guide qui a très bien fait son job, sympathique...nous l’avons remercié à sa juste valeur.

The beginning is always a little messy, it happens in every city. Once we got sorted out we moved on and had a fun experience our guide Benjamin was quite tall and hard to miss in the crowded streets. Full of great info and keeping the whole group in good spirits¡
