Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had a lovely family walk around London with the guidance of our knowledgeable and very polite guide,Tom. We visited St Pauls Cathedral, Millenium Bridge, walked along the river to Borough Market and Tower Bridge area, and back to Westmisters Sq and Trafalgar sq. We even had a local treat for our children from the market. Overall a fun and please experience! "
"Rosa is an excellent guide with great insights, storytelling and an insiders understanding of crowd flow inside the museum. She made our visit seamless and incredibly meaningful. "
"Anthony was an incredible tour guide. He was so entertaining and knowledgeable. We had our almost 2 year old with us and he was accommodating and great with kids. We enjoyed every bit of the tour and would recommend Anthony to everyone. "
"Carolina was a fantastic guide for our family. She communicated clearly and made our connection easy. She adapted when my kids started talking to her about YouTube and Minecraft, and she came ready with video clips to demonstrate where we’ve seen some of the sights in our favorite movies! The best praise came at the end of the day when each of the kids listed our time with Carolina as the highlight of their day! So much better than just trying to figure things out on our own, highly recommend!"
"Luciana was terrific. She was very informative, knowledgeable and allowed us to move a at our own pace. We would highly recommend her. "
"We had a great tour with Tom- he was super accommodating and communicative and we had a great time walking around London with him. We learned so much about the history of the city as well as the current culture. When I mentioned that I loved the Crown, Tom suggested we pivot the tour slightly to suit my interests and he shared a ton of anecdotes and information about the Royals past and present. We really enjoyed the tour and highly recommend Tom to show you all the key sites in London. "
"It was a fresh and unique tour we did. Anthony has a good sense of humor, is completely relaxed and knows his facts. A sure recommend"
"We had the pleasure to be guided through some of the most interesting pieces of the National Gallery. Rosa’s expertise and great storytelling capabilities allowed us to gain a new perspective on paintings we knew while helping us to discover new ones. She’s truly a master of her craft and getting guided from a professional that collaborated many years with the Gallery was an honour. If you’re looking for an afternoon spent studying the beautiful pieces of the collection, guided by a passionate and knowledgeable art historian, we can’t recommend Rosa enough."
"We were a group of 5 ranging in age from 8-78- throughout the planning process Matt was responsive and so helpful with ideas - On the tour day we easily found him- he entertained our 8 year old and was very kind to our slightly mobility challenged 78 year old - he took us places we never would have found on our own - If you really want a kind, empathetic, knowledgeable and fun guide - Matt is your man!"
"Sorcha was absolutely exceptional. From the moment our Withlocals tour began, she brought London to life with her deep knowledge, engaging stories, and incredible ability to reveal hidden gems we never would have found on our own. She kept the experience flowing with fascinating insights and even surprised us with a few unexpected stops that became some of our favorite moments of the day. What impressed us most was how she customized the entire tour around what we wanted to see and do. She listened, adapted, and crafted an experience that felt personal, thoughtful, and perfectly paced. Sorcha is not just a guide—she’s a true ambassador for London, and spending the day with her was an absolute highlight of our trip. Highly, highly recommended."
