Ian was very welcoming. The meeting point was easy to find, and we set off on time. Length of tour 1 1/2 hrs is perfect. Ian is extremely knowledgable and I learnt quite a bit about the area/history. Brigitte
“Excellent guided walk. Informative and amusing. Ian managed to sound as if he was really enjoying sharing his knowledge with us, which is quite an art. Would definitely go on another tour led my him.” Gill

“I really enjoyed the walk. Ian the walk guide gave as a very interesting tour full of history, architecture and anecdotes of the past and present of Greenwich. I highly recommend him. I have been in Greenwich many times but I did learn a lot yesterday. Very very good.” Clara
“Another great walk from London guided tours, this time by Ian, whom I have been with before and once again was impressed with his knowledge of the area and dates, he has an encyclopaedic memory, though, at times, the dates and facts can come a little too thick and fast. If you want to get a real feel for Greenwich the village, then please do go on this tour, you will not be disappointed, as a case in point, I never knew it had a power station!!” Gary
“I loved it as usual Ian is an excellent guide as all the team from London Guided Walks. I look forward to a next guided tour!” Claudine

“The Greenwich London walk that I went to yesterday was the first walk of this kind that I have been on but not the last walk I hope to go on as I am now hooked! The guide was superb, managing to present such interesting historical facts interspersed with fascinating stories and anecdotes. He made sure everyone could see and hear as we walked round and stopped at various points on the fascinating route amongst historic and beautiful Greenwich. He was very professional in his delivery and was obviously an expert on the area and its history. Altogether a wonderful and informative ninety minutes.” Teresa
“A very interesting walk. It was almost an “off-the-beaten-track” walk although we did not travel very far. The guide was very knowledgeable and he spoke concisely and clearly and he used a portable microphone so that we could hear him above the traffic and tourists. He provided his mobile number which was very reassuring in case of loss or lateness. It was a good way to spend a Friday lunchtime.” Fola
“A short walk but packed with lots of interesting information.” Lawrence
“Even though I’m local I learned lots more about Greenwich that I never knew. Our guide was very knowledgeable. Nice stroll around Greenwich on a beautiful day by the River” Angela and Cassie
“From the politics of architecture to the history of pubs – a fascinating blend of knowledge, delivered engagingly, clearly and audibly so every gem shared. Rivetting facts about Cutty Sark with philosophical echoes of the ship of Theseus, the basis of a thought experiment about identity; the paradox being, how many components can be replaced and still call itself the same? [as with Trillion in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Trigger’s broom in ‘Only Fools & Horse’ – King Crimson gets in just under the wire thanks to Robert Fripp’s Best kept secret is the real inimitably British reason for the defeat of the Luftwaffe. You’ll hear it here!” Rebecca
“Very interesting walk round Greenwich. Ian was very knowledgeable and his talk gave a fascinating insight into the history of the area with many facts new to us even though we know the area well. Thoroughly recommended. Will definitely look out for other guided walks in future.” Valerie
“What a fascinating insight into the history and architecture of Greenwich. Ian was very well-informed and his talk was interesting and easy to follow.” Marilyn
“Nice Greenwich tour, knowledgable guide.” Eden
“Our guide Ian knew Greenwich and its history inside-out and kept us entertained and instructed for a fascinating 90-minute tour of London’s answer to Versailles, with time for questions and tips about other things to look at in the town.” Robert
“Most interesting and informative. The guide, Ian, makes these walks a pleasure. Although I am familiar with this area I learned things that I would not have picked up elsewhere. Ian does a lot of personal research and has insights not found in guidebooks. Really worth attending.” John
“Another enjoyable guided walk. I have been to Greenwich a few times but this took me to new areas and Ian is very knowledgeable about the history of the area. I will go back as there is so much to see and take in – 90 minutes wasn’t enough!” Rosalind
“Always a pleasure to discover areas of London with Ian. Very insightful.” Veronique
