Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"The tour was interesting. Andreea had the route prepared, it was well-researched and paced. She included things that I had suggested and asked me about things that I was interested in. She had pictures of the modern sites we looked at and explained their evolution. Andreea was patient with my questions and walking pace. I had so much fun connecting the Regency with the modern places. I would highly recommend this tour to Regency fans! "
"This was a great walking tour of the Regency period of London. The highlight was to see the streets and buildings that were off the regular tourist’s list to visit. I did the this tour with my daughter, and we both had a great time. Andreea was very knowledgable. Definitely recommend this tour. "
"Visited so many great sites across London and learned so much. A must for serious Regency fans."
"Andrea was a great guide, very knowledgeable and helpful. This was booked as a gift for my mother -- a very well read Jane Austen and Regency era person -- and she loved it! She had a great time chatting with Andrea about all the historical facts and aspects of this time period in London. Andrea was also very flexible when we needed to reschedule and adjust the timing. Highly recommend!"

"We had a wonderful tour with Andreea. Not only is she incredible knowledgeable about Regency/Georgian London, but she shared all the information in a way that made it feel personal. For many of the areas we visited, she showed pictures of what the place would have looked like during the Regency period, allowing us to visualize better where we were. She also checked in with me beforehand on what our interests were, so she could customize the tour for us. We could not have had a better experience. It was absolutely worth the cost to have a private tour. "
"Andrea was so lovely and knowledgeable! We had a lovely regency tour in London and had a great time. When we needed to adjust our tour in the middle she was very accommodating and flexible. Thanks Andrea!"
"I learnt from Andreea about the history of London in a very spontaneous, fun and relaxed way."
"The best choice when you want to have a relaxing experience and learn a lot of interesting things about people and places is to be accompanied by a passionate person. We weren't very excited about London at first, but Andreea made us change our minds... since then we love the city and we are eager to visit it again."
"Apart from knowing the most important tourist attractions, Andreea also knows how to make a unique tour that contains also less famous things."
"I've always loved the novels of Jane Austen and the poetry of Lord Byron so on my first trip to London I HAD to do this tour. Did not disappoint - our chatty and nice host brought us to cool locations that I wouldn't have known about. Made my trip extra special. Thanks Andreea!"
