A good informative tour, which focus around cannons rather than Woolwich. A very knowledgeable and friendly tour guide.
Darrell is extremely knowledgeable and truly has a passion for history. I was on the American Civil War tour and loved his stories of American politicians and their endeavors in London. I’d say Darrell’s tours are a must see when visiting London as he goes more in-depth than any other tour I’ve been on!
Darrell was a true professional. He’s in command of his subject matter and was able to make quick adjustments to accommodate our interests and my kids’ curiosity. He is entertaining, personable and highly articulate, too. Book him!
The tour was amazing. Darrell is very knowledgeable and a well-prepared tour guide. Not only did he cover historical topics, but also gave an insight into British culture. I highly recommend him.
Amazing guide and tour! Super knowledgeable and had amazing facts. He was able to answer just about every question we had and we learned so much about not only history but also just British life, politics, and customs in general. He also brought a printed sheet with him that included portraits of a lot of the individuals he talked about, and places and things we were going to see as well as a walking map. Overall would highly recommend this tour if you get the chance!
