Amanda (5/5) - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Highly recommend this walking tour of the historic buildings around the Whitehall and Westminster area. The guide, Daniel, was excellent and knowledgeable on a broad range of subjects, including maybe lesser known anecdotes, relating to the buildings and historical figures and events connected to them. The walk started and finished on time, covering a large area at a fair pace so be prepared with good walking shoes. Look forward to attending other walks by this company in the future."
