Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had a wonderful experience with Andrea on the Regency Period Tour! The tour brought so much of London's history to life for us. Andrea was really passionate about the period which made our experience extra special. We were able to customize our tour to stop at cafe's and pop into shops along to the way. I definitely recommend the tour."
"We can’t recommend this tour enough!! This one is for the romance novel girlies. It’s an amazing overview of Regency England. Be prepared to walk a lot! If anybody in your party has a hard time being on their feet for multiple hours, bring a portable seat with you. Andreea is fantastic — it’s clear that she’s very passionate and knowledgeable about this era. She’s also very accommodating and will take you through the entire tour at your own pace. I highly recommend this tour — you won’t be disappointed!"
"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!"

"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."
"Had a fantastic experience with Andreea, who designed a bespoke tour for my wife’s 40th birthday. We both loved it. We learned so much and discovered new parts of London, despite having lived in or near the city all our lives. Thank you."
"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!"
"It was a lovely visit to a nice London area, from Chelsea to Piccadilly. As our tour guide Andreea was so kind and gave us very interesting information."
"Andreea asked us ahead of time If we had any special interests and using our list did her homework and planned a route which covered all of our wishes. She was very pleasant to be with and we enjoyed our time with her. If we asked a question she could answer it most of the time and if she didn't know, she looked it up on the spot. She had many interesting details and knew her way around the city. A very interesting tour of Regency England with historical information to support what we saw."
"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."
