An excellent 3 hour tour of select high spots in the War Rooms and Churchill Museum. Vivian was informative and interactive, which we appreciate, given our keen interests in history, and she guided us through the many other people in the museum with care and dexterity. She also arranged for us to continue on after a bite to eat, so that we could linger at other exhibits in this magnificent collection of Churchillia.
David was a wonderful guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. We learned so much and truly enjoyed our time with him. Highly recommend!
