"Good history, good company, good fun. Thank you!" Michelle, USA

"Great! My first ever guided walk and I really enjoyed it rain an' all! Hazel is an excellent guide and it was marvellous" Dharshani, Harrow

"This guided walk was fun, informative and very interesting. The timing of this walk was perfect, a very quick 90 minutes but time flies when you are having fun." Karen, Greater London

"What a great thing to do on a Saturday afternoon. I found the walk to be the right amount of time - I have been on two hour London walks and I have to say that they felt too long. Hazel is enthusiastic, very knowledgeable, has a great personality and presents the information with humour. She encouraged questions and enjoyed interacting with the group which made the whole thing seem more personal. I only wish I had had time to join her and others for a drink at the end. I will certainly look out for future walks led by Hazel!" Anonymous 

"Lovely walk around parts of Blackfriars you would most probably be unaware of plus loads of informative knowledge finished off with a G+T in lovely pub. Hazel enthusiastic as always. Great way to spend a Saturday afternoon." Anonymous

"Hazel has wonderful knowledge and a real passion for history. The 90 minute tour was very informative, nicely explained and illustrated. During the walk the group came across a man who was minding his own business cleaning up a stash of clay pipes and broken bits of pottery which he had discovered. Added to the history. Blackfriars is one area that has greatly changed. It would be lovely to go back in time to see the old beauty as it was described by Hazel." Anonymous 

"I enjoyed the tour. Hazel the guide was full of useful information and it was fun to walk with her. Highly recommended to try 1 of her many tours . I.m sure that I will book more with her during the warmer weather" Ulrich P

"Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the area; very interesting tour. Makes you look more closely at the details of the buildings and bridges you pass every day." Anon

"Fascinating insight into an area of London not so commonly visited by walking tours. Many anecdotes the guide told us were from her personal experience e.g. her own visits to buildings that were closed to us. Would have liked more information about the Dominican 'Blackfriars' when we visited the only remaining piece of the monastery but the guide was open to questions." Mike Hopper

"Very entertaining and interesting- the guide had lots of information that i had never heard before." Anon

"Easy place to find, meet and walk from, Hazel was friendly and very informative of Blackfriars area and local history. Most enjoyed the walk while learning new facts of old London." Kenton M

"A great way to get to know a less well known area of London. Interesting and informative." Anon

"This Blackfriars walk is really interesting. Hazel really 'knows her stuff' and her enthusiasm and charm make it all the more interesting. I have lived in London most of my life but still learnt so much about this historically rich area." June Burrows

"Thoroughly enjoyed the walk. Most interesting walking in an area I knew very little about. The guide, Hazel, was very personable and knowledgeable about the area. I'll never look at Blackfriers bridge in quite the same way again. Certainly has encouraged me to take a closer look around the North side of the Thames. It was a friendly group and people soon got talking to each other on the walk between places of interest." Catherine Ross

"Excellent: informative and enjoyable. Highly recommended." Anon

"Fabulous, informative tour - well worth doing. Suitable for families with older children as well as singles or couples interested in London's history. We learnt lots of fascinating facts about the rare and the architecture with a steady stream of stories from our guide. Highly recommended." Anon

"Who'd have thought Blackfriars could be so interesting. Hazel knows her stuff and always makes time to answer any questions you may have." Gillian Faulkner

"What a friendly guide Hazel is. This was the first of her walks I had been on and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I thought I knew the Blackfriars area but Hazel took us down side streets and alleys I'd never even noticed before! She has clear diction and a microphone so you can hear her above traffic, just as well as she is very informative and funny. Recommended." Kim Prendergast

"What a brilliant way to spend 90 minutes! Hazel, the tour guide, has a sunny disposition, a wide range of historical and up to date general knowledge and a good sense of humour.We were taken to places we didn't know existed and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. This was our first walk with Hazel but we are definitely going on some more." Anon

"I would highly recommend this walk. Hazel uses a great deal of her great personality to make the walk and history come alive." Richard Cumbers

"Informative, interesting and a splendid way to spend 90 minutes. Hazel the guide is excellent. I have been on three of the walks and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Take advantage of the opportunity and go on a walk." Anon

"Hazel was great and the tour was interesting. Glad I went." Jonathan Freeman

"This was a fascinating walk around Blackfriars and Hazel made it really enjoyable with her incredible knowledge of the area's history. It's just the right length and a really fun way to spend the afternoon. We will certainly book more walks with Hazel." Christine and Ian B
