Hi, we're Andrew and Herbie.
We're street performers who happen to know an incredible amount about London.
Andrew's a magician who's been doing close-up magic in Covent Garden for 20 years. Herbie's a wizard who's been there even longer (35 years, but who's counting). When we're not running tours, you'll find us busking and entertaining crowds.
We started guiding because we realised something after decades of working live audiences: nobody remembers dry facts. They remember stories that made them laugh, gasp, or go "wait, that actually happened?"
So that's what we do. Real history, told properly. Weird stories. Sharp jokes. And yes, a little magic woven in along the way.
If you're looking for something different from the usual umbrella-following crowd shuffle, come walk with us.
Over 1000 five-star reviews across platforms between us. Apparently we're doing something right.
Your guide will be either Andrew or Herbie depending on the day. Same energy, same passion for London's strangest stories.
Come see London the fun way.

Tour description
Imagine a West End show meets a walking tour of London's most beautiful Christmas lights, filled with magic tricks and wonder. ✨🎄
Led by Santa's chief Elf, and not by a 57-year-old tour guide having a mid-life crisis. 😉
Find out about London's historical connection to the modern idea of Christmas. This Elf will waltz you through London's most amazing Christmas Light displays. 🎅
Herbie has been performing magic in London for 40 years and has over 1,500 5-star reviews across platforms as a tour guide. This Elf knows his stuff! ⭐
If you want to see the Christmas lights of London wrapped up in fun, magic, and laughter, then don't miss this West End wonder of Christmas delight. See Santa's favourite chimney, London's illuminating lights, and where the reindeer have a day off. 🦌
Laughter, magic tricks, light bulbs, and if you're lucky, it might just snow. ❄️☃️
