“Outstanding guided tour of London with Caroline ”
Caroline has a passion for guiding her guests and this shone through every step of the way. We were a family of 7 coming in from the US on a delayed flight and she went above and beyond to help us arrive and find her. The tour itself was brilliant and as a history buff I learned a lot but I was thrilled on how she engaged with my young children and in laws. She is truly a wonderful person
