Traveler reviews
Beware of this tour if...
Beware of this tour if you’re mainly interested in the Churchill war rooms. It ‘s better to book with them directly. We booked this tour but didn’t have tickets to the war rooms until 90 minutes later. They would not release the tickets to us and we had to buy separate tickets. Viator would not reimburse for the extra cost.
A must for an different perspective of WWII History!
Loved this Tour with Paul! He was an excellent guide and had amazing information to share on the tour around city sites before we entered Churchill's War Rooms. After he dropped us off, we had all the time we wanted to visit the war Rooms and the Churchill Museum. It was incredible to see the war rooms and how they were left, intact, at the end of the war. Since we were visiting Normandy D-Day sites towards the end of our three weeks in Europe, it was even more fascinating to see the war plans, maps etc. Definitely recommend this tour! Thank you Paul for the tip about the Spy Bar in the Raffles Hotel (Old War Office)! We went and it was super cool!

Jeremy was amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed his commentary and information. We would highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in this time frame! He was very aware of keeping his guests comfortable in the shade and walking at a comfortable pace.
Skip the tour and buy tickets to the War Room directly
The tour lasted for about 1.5 hours and was informative. Our guide, Pepe, did a nice job of showing us the sites and photos. Note, that this experience is a tour that begins at Parliament and ends at the entrance to the War Room. If you don't add the tickets for the War Room, then you don't get to see those. While our guide did a good job, we would skip the tour and simply buy tickets to the War Room.

There’s a lot of standing but the information was good. Bit hard to hear above the traffic- maybe consider using box boxes.
