5.00Excellent tour. Tom was very knowledgeable and interesting, the tour was a fascinating mix of London places with history and links right across the ages, and it was particularly lovely to see so many places which featured in, or had links to, Dickens. Helped by nice weather too ! Will be looking at the other tours to take next time.
