Fun History Tour

Jeremy was very knowledgeable of WW2 history and shared it in a fun way. Depending on your desire, there’s enough to see in the War Rooms that you could spend several hours there.

Great guide, mediocre audio layout

Do t care for the audio portion but the rooms are wonderful to see. Audio is not organized and easy to follow.
