Our 6 person group took a nooks and crannies tour with Laurence while visiting London. He took us to many out of the way places full of history that one would not see if just visiting the normal tourist sites. We loved the tour and thoroughly enjoyed Laurence. When I visit again I look forward to taking another tour with... More

I've been on three walking tours of London with Laurence over the past couple of years. Laurence is a fantastic guide who really knows his stuff and imparts his knowledge in an interesting and fun way. Even as someone who has lived and worked in London for many years, I've learnt interesting new facts and discovered previously unknown hidden parts... More

Having previously been on Laurence’s 'Jack the Ripper' tour about 4 months ago, I booked another with some friends, which surely speaks volumes about Laurence’s trips. This time we took in the sites and history, from St.Paul’s Cathedral, over the Thames and along Bankside South including the Globe theatre. We of course stopped in the occasional public tavern for some... More

As a "local" I know my area pretty well, so it was a great eye-opener to take Laurence's tour, particularly around the city near st paul's and south of the river by the globe. Laurence was knowledgeable about the tiniest details that I'd never noticed before and very entertaining too. I really enjoyed it

With a couple of pub stops... More

Laurence is absolutely the best tour guide you can possibly get for your site seeing in and around London. His knowledge of the attractions of London is encyclopedic. His joy in showing off his hometown is infectious and rubs off on you where you can not help but have a great time. He was by far the best thing we... More

I have had some of my American family over and we all loved Laurence's tour. He showed them Harry Potter streets which they loved! Laurence is extremely knowledgeable and funny which made the whole experience great fun for us all. I will recommend Laurence and will certainly be using him in the future.

What a great tour for a grandfather and a seventeen year old. Laurence was really able to apply our interests to the sight seeing route and add insightful and interesting facts that made seeing London all the more special. We toured Westminster Abbey and the Globe. Laurence was able to integrate our interests of Shakespeare, Sherlock Holmes and Dickens into... More

As a European tour-manager I work on a daily basis with local guides - in London there are hundreds alone. Laurence is always my first-choice though. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable, but he is hugely entertaining, funny, relaxed and a lot of fun. Over the last year he taken many of my groups on Harry Potter and Beatles tours,... More
