We thoroughly enjoyed this quirky, less travelled tour of London! It was our best experience of the weekend and the only one in which we truly felt a "London vibe," away from all the crowds & chaos. :P The anecdotes are fun and hillarious, and you really get to feel like a local for a minute. If you get Oli as your guide, it will be your lucky day. He is fantastic! Highly recommend. :)

Our tour guide was so engaging. He had amazing knowledge of the city and was a hive of information. Would easily recommend this tour.

Meeting point

Your guide will meet everyone 15 minutes before the tour departure time outside the entrance to platforms 1 & 2 inside Waterloo train station. Waterloo train station is located above the underground station, so if you arrive by underground, then go up the escalators into the main train station after you have gone through the ticket barriers, and then follow the clearly marked train platform numbers along until you reach numbers 1 & 2, where you will meet your tour guide. If you’re running late, though, please call the emergency number provided.

Tour guide (Patrick) was amazing! So full of energy and passion for the topics he shared. We learned a lot and saw so many pockets of London that we decided to return to. I recommend doing this near the beginning of your trip to London! The tour was large (we had 11 total in our group) but Patrick did a great job making sure all were cared for and he even learned our names to personally address us and ask questions. Well done. 🙌
