Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Enjoyed our Dr Who tour with Tom. He was charming, knowledgeable and friendly. He had plenty of history to share as well as memorable Dr Who sites to visit in London. "
"We were with my 80 year old parents, and weren't sure that a three hour tour would work for us. Tom shortened and customized the tour for us. and we had a lot of fun! He checked in with us during the tour to make sure my parents were doing ok. He is quite the Whovian, and anyone wanting a unique experience with a fun guide will have a great time with Tom!"
"It was a wonderful 3 hours with Tom. Apart from all the Dr Who stories, it was also a very informative tour. My sons are 14 and 17 years old and enjoyed it (even if their feet hurt at the end...😏) Thanks to Tom! "
"Despite awful weather, protests in London, and a host of public transportation issues, Tom was able to navigate through it all and provide a great tour that included not only Whovian history, but British history as well. Thank you, Tom, for an experience that was bigger on the inside!"

"Tom was just fabulous. He spent over 4 hours with us seeing so much of London. He had tons of great Doctor Who sites and facts, but also filled in the spaces between with London history, little known facts, and more. Our son had a great time. I would highly recommend taking a tour with Tom. Seeing London any other way would mean you are missing out on so much of what is around you. "
"Our family signed up for the Doctor Who tour with Tom and got more than we signed up for! Over the 3-4 hours together, Tom led us through history (both London and The Who-niverse) and introduced us to new parts of town that we hadn’t explored yet. Our 9-year-old wished he could have spent the rest of the day with Tom and we all left the tour feeling like we’d made a new friend. We will look for other tour opportunties with Tom next time we’re in London. WHO knows what we’ll learn next time from Tom?? "
"Tom was amazing in his knowledge not only of Dr Who series and the various London landmarks used in the series over the years, but also the writers, storylines, characters etc. He specially designed a full day tour and went out of his way by meeting us at our hotel and getting us set up to use the public transport to take some of the time and walking out of the day (we're a bit older and less fit than we'd like). While his Dr Who knowledge is incredible, Tom also has great knowledge of broader London history and interspersed stories of the great fire, the WW2 events, the old city walls/gates, architecture and some of the iconic people and buildings. I thought I knew a lot about London but was surprised to learn lots of new info about the place and the people. Tom's banter was infectious and we found ourselves drawn in to debates about the Dr and actors/writers as well as plot lines. He was very careful to pace the tour and take breaks at significant locations with lots of photo opps along the way. Especially enjoyed the lunch at PieMinster and the look out at the Tate to get a feel for the ongoing development of the city and the different stages of architecture and how they all sit together in today's London. Tom also made sure that he adapted his usual tour route to get us back to our last point of interest stop just across the road from our hotel. A great day full of information and lots of fun. Oh and complimentary Jelly Babies!!"
"My family had a wonderful time with Tom, we chose this tour for our 14yr son is a huge Dr Who Fan.however my wife and i also found the tour to be most interesting , the 3hrs flew by walking the streets of london.Tom's knowledge was most impressive our son said that he had the best day ever !!!.We would thoroughly recommend Tom, look forward to going on another amazing walk through londons streets when next in london. "
"I had a 6 hour tour of London with Tom. He created a perfect tour for me, suiting it on my interests and passions. He knows really a lot about London, its history and architecture. He is THE London Storyteller. He is friendly, passionate about London and also really toghtful. If you go to London, don't miss the chance to visit it with him: you will discover places otherwise you won't ever see "
"Fantastic itinerary, well planned touring and a riveting story teller! Tom had us laughing and engaged as he patiently uncovered off the beaten path spots for our team to explore. Much appreciate the Jelly babies and your time Tom- wonderful making your acquaintance !...and remember..DONT BLINK!"
