This is an ok tour ...

This is an ok tour Marvin our guide had some great stories I don’t think you can call this a ghost tour as it was still daylight and we did not go any where that there could possibly see any ghosts. It was more like a walking tour with stories. Not really suitable for small children under the age of 7/8 as there is a lot of walking and a train trip. All areas where we stopped were outside and just stories of years many many years ago.

Probably avoid this company…

When we booked this it said it came with a free boat ride from Central London to the Tower of London at the end of the walking tour. Near the end he told us, for those that booked a boat ride, we aren’t doing that today. Instead we are taking the subway and you are paying for it yourself. They offered no refund and did not communicate this before hand. If they would have let us know we would have cancelled. So we took the subway across London, he spoke for about 5 minutes, and then we had to subway back to the start. Super weird and I don’t understand why you even travel across London and don’t just do the tour at the same location if there isn’t a boat ride. Really weird design. Subway ride was awkward because he had nothing to say and just asked us to share our stories in front of a train car of random people. I take a tour in every city I visit. Probably the worst thought out tour overall.

Would recommend.

A really great way to see some of the sites and key landmarks. Our guide, Murray was entertaining and informative. Gruesome/spooky stories of the past (not scary), so great for all ages. This trip takes you on the underground but there is no boat trip as advertised on Trip Advisor.

Closer to 1.5-2 hours than the estimated 2.5. Small group when we went, about 10 people. Went from Green Park to Westminster and finished at Tower of London. Most of the stories were new to me, even having visited London before. wanted to note that at one point we went on the tube and paid our own way, which is not something I remember reading ahead of time Also this is just obvious but 7pm in the summer is not spooky nighttime, which was fine, but to consider when booking for atmosphere
