Victorian Covent Garden Private Tour

PrivateVictorian Covent Garden tour reviews:

"I have joined a few London Guides and have to say that Hazel's walks are my favourite. Her passion for the diverse locations and her knowledge of their history, keeping up-to-date with any changes in this ever changing town; her homework and professionalism mixed with friendliness and regard for every person having a question ... In a nutshell: you "need" to join her walks, especially as a Londoner. Go on a LondonGuidedWalks.co.uk tour, you'll discover the passion for and of a city." Petra

"What a fascinating talk about the origins of some of the West End's most iconic landmarks such as Charing Cross. I've seen parts of Covent Garden that I didn't even know existed. Our guide, Hazel, was brilliant - very funny and engaging. Her background knowledge is really impressive. The only downside was the weather but there's no controlling that! I would certainly recommend this walk." Joanne W

"On a freezing windy day, we had a very interesting walk with Hazel which made us forget about the cold. Very informative and good fun walk, full of anecdotes and facts. We walked through all the little alleyways we had never explored before, understanding more about the victorians and London geography"

Her story telling makes the tour most enjoyable and helps the facts engrave in one's mind.
