Ride in comfort around London!

Comfortable ride around town at 1900, before sunset - Dominic provided witty and thorough review of many historical sites throughout London. Plenty to see during the 1.5 hour tour.

Hilarious tour guide

The tour was easy to find, and everything was well-organized. The highlight of the tour, aside from seeing all the major London sites so quickly, was the tour guide. Not only did he share a lot of great information, he was also wildly entertaining. For the life of me, I cannot remember his name, but he wore a yellow shirt during the tour, and my mom and I could not stop laughing at his commentary. Legitimately, if he could be a personal tour guide for the whole of our trip, I would happily pay for that. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would because he was hilarious.
