It was great to listen to his commentary and also to march along beside them as they made their way to Buckingham Palace. We were able to see them from a few different spots and then we hung out at Buckingham Palace to take photos for a while before heading down to where the guards return after they're done. We would not have known about their return trip if it weren't for the information we got from Alex. It really was a great experience!

We did free tour with Dave. He was super great! When we did this tour it was on and off raining. So these tours happen rain or shine. The tour was focused on the castle aka the royal tour. We were taken to many photo spots and I love all the context we get. Dave the tour guide was so knowledgeable and super kind. On these tour he tells your tips on how to navigate around the city and etiquette. He was willing to give recommendations and directions when the tour ends too. Remember that these tours had a lot of research done and that you should tip as much you think it is worth. These tours are such worth it as they can build some structure on the trip. I look forward booking with Sandman's tour company again. :)

I wish I had completed the tour earlier in my trip because that would have given me time to revisit some of the spots. In addition, other areas of interest were pointed out during the tour. I like the tour is free because I can just show up during a time that works for me rather than make a reservation and need to change / cancel it later. If you're in the city as a tourist, plans may change without notice, so having flexibiluty is really nice. Well done !

My wife and I did the Royal London Walk with Andrew. He was incredibly knowledgable about the…read morehistory of London and it's royalty. He covered over 1000 years of history over the two hour walk. We started at Trafalgar Square, through Royal London (seeing the beginning and up close changing of the guard) then to St. James Park, on to Downing Street, Big Ben and so many other great historical locations. There is no cost for the tour, and the guides work solely on tips, but there was no pressure at all to do so. We tipped 20 pounds and it was worth every penny. You can tell Andrew loves what he does, and likes meeting new people. It was so good we went back for the 6:30 pm London's Ghostly Haunts Walk, but were 7 minutes late and missed it. TIP: Get there on time!

omg, 5/5, "ate and left no crumbs". Am I cool, yet? Maybe too soon to say…read more Literally, the mystery is still unsolved. No crumbs? Okay, I'll stop right there because we're talking about gruesome murders that took place in 1888 by the clever and unknown "Jack". I booked this tour through Viator and our assigned guide was Ivan. We began the tour with a backstory of the neglected town of Whitechapel and continued the tour following in "Jack's" footsteps. Out of all of the tours we had in London, this was the most educational and compelling. Parts of the tour include photos of the women that were brutally murdered and Ivan would warn us to look away if we weren't interested in seeing them. I would highly recommend this tour, and I'm not a true crime podcast girlie.

If we didn't have a packed schedule, we would book another pub crawl with him immediately. It's a great way to learn about London and sample a number of different pubs and their brews!

This was rated one of the top 101 things to do in London, so it is definitely worth checking out!…read moreThe concept is hilarious, a tour where the history and facts are entirely made up and rooted in humor. As an American however, it felt that a lot of the British humor didn't quite connect. Being used to American humor, I didn't find the jokes to be hilarious. I would imagine it would be significantly funnier with a larger understanding of the culture here and appreciation for the dry British comedic style. I'd give the idea a 10/10 but the execution here seemed to be about a 6/10. Many jokes could be improved upon, and the humor was more silly than clever. The idea is much funnier than the actual jokes, so there is a lot of room for improvement on this idea. I would rate the experience as a 3 star one for Americans, but most likely a 4 star one for locals. There is a LOT of potential in this terrific idea.

****BEST FREE THING IN LONDON***…read more Gary our tour guide gave us an amazing tour of east london's street art. You book by emailing him, meet round the corner from Liverpool Street and he takes you on a 2 hour tour around london's east end for free (though, the tour is that good you will want to give him a heavy tip at the end) Ive been round this area on many occasions but thing were pointed out and explained and without being too dramatic, completely changed how i look at the area. We saw works by Banksy, Stiks, and T.wat and given a real sense of what the work meant. and what it was doing for society - Stiks has used street art to transform his life old life as someone who was homeless to someone who now holds exhibitions around the world. and others who have since set up charities. very compelling stuff. Learning about the history area of Jewish / bangladesh settlement, and the more current artist versus bankers territorial struggle was fantastic too. SOOOOOO cant recommend this enough. made me proud to live in london.

This is just what Londoners need…read more Some interesting information first: London has the highest number of singletons in the country - a fact that comes as no surprise given that it is also, by far, the most populated city in the country. Now tell someone it also has the highest percentage of single people than anywhere else in the country and you may raise some eyebrows. If you have lived here, as I have all my life, you wouldn't be surprised to see why this is the case. Londoners abide by certain invisible rules, amongst them are the following: "Thou shalt not speak to strangers" and "Thou shalt not make eye contact with those you do not know." With these rules in mind you can see why so many people have trouble connecting with others and why it does not have the same sense of bonding and community spirit you would find in small towns and villages. The English reservedness also proves to be highly problematic in approaching people and asking members of the opposite sex out on dates - this is where Jean Smith comes in. She teaches us to approach, talk and flirt with people everywhere we go - whether it be the supermarket, art galleries, bars and even the street where you may meet your dream partner. If you do not try, you will only miss out. On the walking tour we went to several places - an art gallery, the local supermarket in Covent Garden, a pub to name a few and she encouraged us to strike up a conversation with members of the opposite sex. In the world of dating, the most common fear people have is rejection. Now this isn't what worried me - thankfully pretty much nearly everyone I meet respond positively if I start a conversation, ask for contact details and even ask them out. What I do have difficulties with though is flirting. I don't know how to flirt and quickly feel awkward if someone flirts with me even though I don't mean to feel that way. Reading signals is another problem area - particularly when women are quite subtle. To give you an idea - my last two ex-girlfriends claim they made it blatantly clear they were flirting and were interested in me before we entered a relationship. I also often find myself wondering, "Was she flirting with me or being friendly?", telling my female friends about those situations and find they tell me those women I encountered were indeed flirting. I tend to be much too cautious! Jean told us what to do, where and how to do them. She also told us about body language and the signals to watch out for - something I found to be of super help! Just before the end of the tour, we retired to a pub and had a good discussion together. There was flirting going in amongst members of the group - every single person had a laugh and a good time! We were all encouraged to ask questions and discuss them together. Jean answered them all in a very helpful, detailed manner. One more thing I am also pleased to add is that she was not in any way patronising or condescending. She comes across very friendly, down to Earth, approachable and extremely charming through her smiles and super confident personality. All in all I think I met about 15 women - all of them total strangers and they all reacted positively. Had a great time, including a comical time when during the supermarket task I had pretended to be completely clueless about wine, simply to strike up a conversation with a woman, and it turned out she had no idea about wine either. She had a boyfriend (oops) a few metres behind who then came up to me but don't worry, he was quite friendly. I then had to spend a few minutes playing dumb, saying "Really?", "Ahhhh, I see", "I didn't know that", "Aha!" etc. a lot as he proceeded to spend a few minutes telling me all about wine. :) The evening ended on a high, and I certainly felt more confident thanks to Jean!

I decided to go on this tour or a laugh and just see what Jean had to say on the topic of flirting…read more About two hours before the tour was to start, I re-read Jean's website and realised that this was meant to be an interactive tour. Needless to say, I was more than a little terrified by the time I turned up. I needn't have been. Jean does a great job of easing people into the tasks so that while they still require you breaking out of your comfort zone in order to perform them, at the very least, they're not so mindbogglingly difficult that you'd run screaming from the tour the instant you're told about them! I think one of the great things about this tour is that everyone who comes on this is as open-minded as you are. Consequently, it makes it easy to bond with one another, and, it most definitely helps when you know there are other people out there trying to do the same tasks which you're doing. You'd think having people you know around when you're attempting to flirt would make things a little more nerve-wracking and pressurising, but it doesn't. Instead, it helps you feel more relaxed because you've got all these people there for moral support. It's definitely a fun way to spend an evening. It's a good way to open your eyes as to the different places where you can meet people, and the ways in which you can approach them. I also liked that Jean had a mini Q&A at the pub at the end of the tour so that you could ask more questions about meeting people, cultural differences and taking things further... basically anything at all to do with flirting! Highly recommended!
