Thoroughly enjoyable and informative walk around Spitalfields which highlighted lots of interesting things that I didn’t know about a place I know well. A great way to spend 90 minutes on a sunny Sunday lunchtime.

From the moment of being greeted by Daniel, through to his concluding remarks, every word that he said was informative and of interest, whether as part of his plan or in response to questions from his audience. The walk was well paced and truly included secrets that even I, a long term resident of London, had not encountered before. There could not have been a better way to learn about this fascinating area than to walk in the company of people equally interested and to be guided by someone so well-informed. A most enjoyable ninety minutes.

Great walk with Daniel ‘ Wonders of Westminster.’ Despite terrible weather Daniel managed to remain upbeat and deliver knowledge of the buildings with human interest stories of some of the calamities that had happened inside of them. Thank you Daniel

I was really fascinated by the history and the beauty of the King’s Cross complex that I never suspected. Daniel , the guide, obviously loves the place and he manages to convey his enthusiasm to us. His explanations are very clear and his knowledge of the architectural and engineering developments is thorough. His personality made the walk most enjoyable.
