Time Jumping Through London
"Chris managed to put together such a warm and friendly atmosphere from the moment we met him until we were planning our trip in the spring and exchanging contact information with Chris at the end of our day. We truly felt a connection with Chris. He is funny, warm, friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. He managed to take two completely different personalities with completely different interests and knowledge bases and reconcile them and intricately unveil them, with each step through the London streets, into a phenomenal experience. My husband and I stayed plugged in the entire day. I am so glad I stumbled upon Chris and fate worked in our favor because we had a wonderful day. We all walked away more knowledgeable about different things and with newly sparked interests and stories to tell. One of the best tour experiences both my husband and myself have ever had and we have years of travel throughout the world especially Europe to compare this tour. Thank you, Chris! Until next time….
