Downton Abbey London Tour for Two 11870171

This was bought for me as a gift as I am a big Downton fan. We met our tour guide Eva outside the tube station & was immediately made to feel welcome. We were lucky as there were only 6 of us on the tour so this was perfect. I saw parts of London I'd not seen before which was great & also very fascinating. Eva was a fantastic tour guide, very funny & friendly & the 2 & a half hours flew by. Would 100% recommend this tour.

It is necessary to arrive early for this tour as there is no way of contacting the guide once the tour starts and you do not stay in one location. We walked from Temple to Green Park with a comfort stop in Somerset House for those who needed it. It was very hot on the day we did it and as it is all outside, there is not always shade available so bear this in mind. The tour runs on a Friday morning from approximately March to October and if it rained on the day, you would get very wet! Our guide, Michael, was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of general historical information about the areas we passed through, as well as pointing out Downton locations and snippets about the characters. We did a Call The Midwife tour last year with the same company and I think I enjoyed that more, but then that was just in the one location of Chatham Dockyard and there was more shade available.

Downton Abbey London Walking Tour. Michael was our guide and he was excellent. Our group set off on time and from that moment Michael was giving information all the time and showing us sights that ordinarily you would just pass by. He explained, using photographs, how the different buildings and settings were used. He not only made the tour interesting but also amusing as well and the two and a half hours just flew by. The pace is steady so everybody can keep up. An excellent tour of Downton Abbey's London (or was it Liverpool or Yorkshire?) locations. Fully recommended.

This was a great tour for people who like Downton Abbey, or for anyone wanting to see some different parts of London and find out some of the history behind the buildings visited (my boyfriend had never watched the series but still enjoyed the tour a lot). Our tour guide, Eva, was very friendly and engaging which helped to make the morning a great experience, also helped by the small group size (7 people) and lovely weather.
