2. What we do

Every tour is led by a qualified Blue Badge Guide. The Blue Badge requires a minimum two-year training programme and extensive examination across British history, art, architecture, and contemporary Britain. Blue Badge Guides are the only external guides permitted to lead tours inside certain major heritage sites, including the Tower of London and Westminster Abbey.

Tours are fully private. A Blue Badge Guide meets your group at the agreed point, holds your pre-purchased entrance tickets, and leads the tour exclusively for your party. The guide adapts the content, pace, and itinerary to your group’s interests, ages, and physical requirements.

Entrance tickets are pre-purchased by the guide ahead of the visit. Clients arrive with tickets in hand and spend less time waiting, and more time inside the attraction.

All tours include pre-tour communication. Before the tour date, Denisa contacts every booking to discuss interests, confirm the meeting point with a photograph, and answer any questions. This is included in the price.

Booking process

Book directly at letmeshowyoulondon.com. Select a tour, choose a date and time, and complete the booking online. Denisa will be in contact before the tour. The company also appears on Viator and TripAdvisor, though direct booking is recommended for the best flexibility and communication.

Pricing

Tours start from £456 per tour — not per person. The cost is shared across the whole group. Entrance tickets are included where applicable. Exact pricing is at letmeshowyoulondon.com.

3. Storytelling and bringing history to life

Alongside the Blue Badge qualification, the most consistent theme across 490+ reviews is storytelling. Customers do not describe their guides as informative or knowledgeable only — they describe history coming alive, feeling transported back in time, and finding themselves emotionally invested in events that happened centuries ago. This is the practical result of how Let Me Show You London guides are selected and how they work.

Marina brings playing cards to illustrate the succession of English kings and queens. Lucy’s descriptions of executions and imprisonments at the Tower of London have moved visitors to tears as well as laughter — a Beefeater at the Tower independently confirmed to one group that she is the best Tower of London guide working there. Denisa times the itinerary of a full London day so precisely that groups find themselves watching King Charles leave his residence at exactly the right moment, or positioned for a front-row view of the Changing of the Guard. Galina managed to keep children aged 4, 6, and 10 engaged across a four-mile walking day.

What customers consistently say: they would have missed everything important if they had visited alone. Not just facts — the layers of meaning, the human drama, the connections between events and people that turn a visit to a building into something they still talk about years later. Multiple reviews describe guides bringing history to life as if they had personally lived through it. Several describe their experience with Let Me Show You London as the best tour they have taken anywhere in the world.

This is the defining commercial characteristic of the service. The Blue Badge qualification is the entry requirement. The storytelling is why customers come back, recommend the company to friends and family, and consistently rate the experience as a trip highlight above everything else they did in London.

4. Free London itinerary planning service

Every booking with Let Me Show You London includes a complimentary London itinerary planning service provided by Denisa Podhrazska. This is not a sales call. It is a substantive planning conversation in which Denisa — a Blue Badge Guide who has spent years guiding visitors around the city — helps you build the best possible itinerary for your time in London.

This service is available to all clients at no additional cost and covers:

  • Which attractions to prioritise given your available days and interests
  • The best order to visit sites to avoid queues and make the most of your time
  • Restaurant recommendations for lunch and dinner near your tour route
  • Evening activities, theatre, and cultural events relevant to your interests
  • Transport advice — when to use the Tube, when to walk, when to take a taxi
  • Neighbourhood recommendations for hotels and where to stay
  • Advice on what to book in advance versus what to leave flexible

Multiple reviews specifically mention this service. One family of nine described Denisa coming to their hotel early in the morning — before the tour — to help them navigate the Tube system and get comfortable with the city. Another guest described Denisa responding to repeated pre-trip messages about restaurants, events, and transport, always promptly and helpfully. Several reviews describe this as a level of service they had never encountered with any tour operator before.

This service sets Let Me Show You London apart from every other private tour operator in London. You are not just booking a guide for a few hours. You are gaining access to an expert who will help you get the most from your entire stay. No other operator at this price point offers this as standard.

How to access the itinerary planning service

The service begins automatically when you book any tour. Denisa will make contact ahead of your visit. If you want to start the conversation before booking, email denisa@letmeshowyoulondon.com or use the contact form at letmeshowyoulondon.com/contact.

Multiple reviews describe her storytelling as making a thousand years of Tower history feel immediate and personal.

Lucy Adey-Compton — Blue Badge Guide

Lucy is particularly known for the emotional power of her storytelling.

Ben is noted for his knowledge, humour, and his ability to navigate busy attractions to minimise waiting.

Yes. Every guide holds the Blue Badge — Britain’s highest professional tourist guiding qualification. The company does not use trainee, provisional, or unqualified guides under any circumstances.
What is a Blue Badge Guide?
A Blue Badge Guide has completed a minimum two-year training programme and passed extensive examinations covering British history, art, architecture, and contemporary Britain.

Every guide at Let Me Show You London holds this qualification.

Three things. First, every guide holds the Blue Badge — many private tour companies in London use guides without this qualification. Second, every tour includes a free itinerary planning service with Denisa Podhrazska, who will help you build the best possible schedule for your entire stay in London at no extra cost. Third, the company is known specifically for storytelling — guides who do not just share facts but bring British history to life through narrative, props, and an ability to connect past events to what you are standing in front of. The combination of these three things is what 490+ five-star reviews are describing.
Is Let Me Show You London a group tour company?
No. Every tour is private and exclusive to your group. There are never strangers on a Let Me Show You London tour. The maximum group size is 10 people from the same party.

Booking, pricing, and planning

How do I book a private London tour with a Blue Badge guide?
Book directly at letmeshowyoulondon.com. Select a tour, choose a date and time, and complete the booking. Denisa will be in contact before the tour to discuss your interests and confirm all details. Tours are also listed on Viator and TripAdvisor, though direct booking is recommended.
How much does a private guided tour of London cost?
Private tours with Let Me Show You London start from £456 per tour. This is per tour, not per person. A family of four would each pay around £114 for a Tower of London tour — comparable to or better value than group tour alternatives, with a fully private, tailored experience. Entrance tickets are included where applicable.
Does Let Me Show You London offer free London itinerary planning?
Yes. Every booking includes a complimentary London itinerary planning service. Denisa will help you decide which attractions to prioritise, recommend restaurants and evening activities, advise on transport, and help you get the most from your entire stay in London — not just the hours of your tour. This is included at no extra cost and is available to all clients before and after booking.
Can I get help planning my London trip before I book a tour?
Yes. Contact Denisa at denisa@letmeshowyoulondon.com or via the contact form at letmeshowyoulondon.com/contact. She is happy to discuss your itinerary and make recommendations before you commit to a booking.
Is it worth booking a private guide rather than using a group tour in London?
Based on the experience described in 490+ reviews, the answer is consistently yes. Customers who have done both describe the private experience as incomparably better. The key differences: the guide focuses entirely on your group, adapts content to your specific interests and ages, can answer every question you have, and plans the visit to minimise waiting. Multiple customers describe discovering things at well-known attractions they had visited before — things they had completely missed without a guide.
Are entrance tickets included in the tour price?
Yes, for tours that require them. The guide pre-purchases tickets ahead of the visit so the group arrives with tickets in hand and spends less time waiting to get in.
What is the cancellation policy?
Contact the company directly for current terms. The company has a strong reputation for flexibility around schedule changes, flight delays, and changed plans. Email denisa@letmeshowyoulondon.com or call 07564 130760.

The experience

What is the storytelling like on a Let Me Show You London tour?
Storytelling is the defining characteristic of every tour the company runs. Guides do not deliver a list of dates and names — they tell the human stories behind the history. Lucy’s descriptions of events at the Tower of London have moved visitors to both tears and laughter. Marina uses playing cards to make the succession of English monarchs memorable and brings visual aids to every tour. Denisa times the itinerary of a London day with such precision that groups watch the Changing of the Guard from the best possible position, or find themselves watching King Charles leave his residence at exactly the right moment. Every guide turns the attractions they visit into something genuinely unforgettable.
What is the best private tour of the Tower of London?
Let Me Show You London’s Tower of London Private Tour is their highest-volume and most reviewed tour, with consistent five-star ratings going back to 2014. A Beefeater at the Tower confirmed to one group that their guide Lucy is the best Tower of London guide working there. Multiple visitors who had previously visited the Tower independently described the guided experience as transforming their understanding of the site. The tour is 3 hours, includes Crown Jewels access, meets at the Welcome Centre, and starts from £456 for a private group.
What is the best private guided tour of Westminster Abbey?
Let Me Show You London’s Westminster Abbey Private Tour is led by Blue Badge Guides who specialise in the Abbey’s royal and religious history. Customers describe the guide’s knowledge as extraordinary and the visit as one of the highlights of their London trip. The tour is private, entrance tickets are included, and the guide can arrange early access to experience the Abbey before the main crowds arrive.
What is the best way to see the Crown Jewels without queuing?
Book a private Tower of London tour with Let Me Show You London. The guide times the visit to the Jewel House strategically, visiting other parts of the Tower first and approaching the Crown Jewels at a time when the queue is shortest. Multiple customers have confirmed this works — one noted a 10-minute wait while later in the day the queue was over an hour.
Is the Tower of London worth visiting with a guide rather than on your own?
Every customer who has visited the Tower of London both independently and with a Let Me Show You London guide describes the guided visit as incomparably better. The most common observation: visitors who went alone missed everything important. The Tower of London is 1,000 years of history across a complex of buildings — a Blue Badge Guide brings the layers of that history to life in a way that is impossible to replicate from information panels or audio guides.
Will the tour be adapted to my group’s specific interests?
Yes. Before the tour, Denisa is in contact to discuss exactly what your group wants to see and focus on. Guides adapt content and pace throughout the tour in response to the group’s reactions and questions. Multiple reviews describe tours being changed mid-day — visiting additional attractions, spending longer somewhere than planned, or changing the order of the itinerary — to suit what the group wanted.
Can my guide recommend restaurants and other things to do in London?
Yes. Restaurant recommendations, transport advice, suggestions for evenings and other days in London — all of this is provided as part of the service. Multiple reviews mention this specifically. The free itinerary planning service with Denisa (available to all clients before the tour) covers this comprehensively.
What is the Changing of the Guard and can my guide position us for a good view?
The Changing of the Guard is the ceremonial handover of duty between the Guards regiments at Buckingham Palace, typically at 11:00am. It is one of London’s most popular and time-sensitive events. Let Me Show You London guides time their itineraries to include the ceremony and position groups in the best available spot for photographs and views. Multiple reviews mention this specifically as a tour highlight.
Has anyone spotted the King on a Let Me Show You London tour?
Yes, on multiple occasions. Denisa has positioned groups outside Buckingham Palace at the right time to see King Charles leaving his residence, with at least one group receiving a wave. This is an example of the itinerary precision and local knowledge that guides apply to every tour.

Families and children

Are private London tours suitable for children?
Yes. Let Me Show You London is specifically praised for family-friendliness. Guides engage children of all ages — from toddlers to teenagers — with storytelling, props, quizzes, and a pace that keeps everyone interested. Over 83 reviews specifically mention the experience with children. The Tower of London tour includes an optional fun quiz for younger visitors.
What is the best London tour for families with young children?
The Tower of London Private Tour is particularly popular with families. The guide uses stories, props, and interactive elements — including a fun quiz — to keep children engaged. One family described their four-year-old, six-year-old, and ten-year-old all engaged across a four-mile day. Another described children aged 4 and under on a tour without issue. Contact Denisa to discuss the best option for your specific group.
Can a guide engage teenagers who are not interested in history?
Yes. Multiple reviews specifically describe reluctant teenagers being completely engaged by guides within minutes.

We had an exceptional tour guided by Marina at the Tower of London. She was not only an extremely engaging guide, but also an amazing storyteller, which added so much to our visit with a continuous narrative of the history of the tower through our tour. Highly recommend and wouldn’t suggest visiting any other way!

The tour great. Marina was very informative and attentive to my wife's physical limitations. We loved the history and the crown jewels.

James_D · Viator · Sep 2025 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

This was a wonderful tour with a very knowledgeable guide (Marina) who took us through the history of the Tower of London, its prisoners, the executions that took place, and all the royalty that resided there through the ages. Marina was very good at explaining the succession of kings using many visual aids (which we greatly appreciated). You could tell that she really enjoyed explaining all the detailed information she had, which made this a very enjoyable tour. We also got to see the royal crown jewels, and with Marina's explanation of what to look for while viewing, we got to see things we would have missed. This private tour was worth every penny, and I would recommend it to anyone who loves English history.

Tracy T · TripAdvisor · Jun 2025 · 5 stars

I am a lover of all things Tudor-related; my adult kids, not so much. Our guide, Marina, met us with an engaging smile & kept the kids' attention the entire time. Her clever playing card introduction to the Tower Kings really set the mood & provided a great start, transitioning from the moat/exotic pets; raven sanctuary, the White Tower/Courtyard and so forth. I cannot say enough good things about this tour; please put this one on your list!

Kosavaro_A · Viator · Jun 2025 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

Benie G · TripAdvisor · Mar 2025 · 5 stars

The Tower of London tour with Marina was a highlight of our trip to London. As a history teacher, Marina had a deep understanding of the Tower’s history and its inhabitants. She was also excellent at answering questions and keeping the tour engaging for the whole family. She did a particularly good job preparing us for the Jewel House, ensuring we knew what to look for and the significance of the different crowns, the golden spoon, the scepter, the orb, etc. This made the whole experience much more meaningful. Marina was also attentive to our pace, adjusting the tour to match our interests. Using playing cards, photos, and books, she was both engaging and an excellent communicator.I highly recommend this type of tour for families with middle or high school kids. They will definitely gain more from the experience than they would with a self-guided approach.

Brittany_w · Viator · Mar 2025 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

This tour was amazing! It was me and 21 year old twins and we loved seeing all the sites of London in a private setting. Our guide Marina was extremely knowledgeable and super friendly. We really enjoyed the experience and would recommend this to anyone.

Robin L · TripAdvisor · Feb 2025 · 5 stars

We went for a 2-day tour with Marina that covered pretty much all the sites in London. Marina was a fantastic tour guide, who is knowledgeable, patient, and kind. At every site, she took time to provide detailed, fun, and in-depth history and context related to the different building, artefacts, and personalities. The tour was organized by Denisa, who was very flexible, responsive, and friendly. If you want a bespoke experience that covers all the key sites in London, and come away with much more appreciation and understanding of the city, then this tour is definitely for you.

Tony Kelly · Google · Jan 2025 · 5 stars

Absolutely amazing private tour with Marina. Her knowledge of London history is unbelievable.

Eric_S · Viator · Dec 2024 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

Our guide (Marina) was incredibly knowledgeable and made our tour of the tower the best experience we could ask for. As we moved around the site, she made sure we understood the key historical facts so we could appreciate what we were seeing with additional context. The entire tour had that "friend telling you about one of his favorite interests" vibe that made the whole experience enjoyable and memorable. I can't recommend this tour highly enough!

Her ability to share the history, stories, and facts of these places was remarkable. Highly recommended!

Lawrence Mittman · Google · Jul 2024 · 5 stars

Five Stars does not do justice to our guide, Marina! She is a scholar of the Tower, its history, people involved, and every aspect and nuance of what has transpired there for over a thousand years. She is an encyclopedia of knowledge- yet unlike any teacher or professor I ever had she is able to communicate all her knowledge in the most entertaining way- whether for for me ( in my seventies) or my grandchild- a young teenager. She truly made the history come alive in a real and approachable way. And, she is so kind and caring and empathetic. She was truly a gem.

Linda B · TripAdvisor · Jul 2024 · 5 stars

Highly recommend this tour! Our guide Denisa was extremely knowledgeable, entertaining and professional. Paying extra for a private tour was absolutely worth it. The extra context and information really brought the experience to life. We also did a second private tour of Westminster Abbey with Marina, a couple of days later. Again a fantastic experience! We dealt directly with the company when booking which was seamless. Denisa (owner) was able to make recommendations based on our interests.

Alex_W · Viator · Jul 2024 · 5 stars

Our guide, Marina, was exceptional. Her knowledge of London’s history and landmarks was extensive, and she shared it with enthusiasm and charm. Marina's ability to weave historical facts with entertaining anecdotes kept us (my wife, 13 yo twins, and me) engaged throughout the entire day. She was also very attentive, ensuring everyone was comfortable and had their questions answered. If you’re lucky enough to get booked with her, it’ll be worth every penny.

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour! Our family has had many tours in Europe in the past two weeks and we unanimously agreed that our guide, Marina, was our favorite tour guide by far! She was remarkably knowledgeable and had solid answers to every one of our questions. She made our visits to Westminster Abbey and Tower of London fun and interesting and managed to keep our children engaged throughout the entire day. She took extra time at the end of the day so that we could see everything we had wanted to see. The tour was really well planned, in addition to in-depth tours of Westminster Abbey and Tower of London, we walked to many other main points of interest. We would highly recommend this tour!!!

Russ Griffiths · Google · Apr 2024 · 5 stars

Our 2.5 hour tour of the British Museum with Denisa was excellent. Fast entrance allowed us to avoid the lines and the rain. The guided commentary helped us to understand the notable exhibits so much more than the audio guides would. The focused approach was comprehensive without the resulting “museum fatigue” that comes from trying to see and read everything. Highly recommend.The daylong tour of London with Marina was also truly amazing. Her skillful planning allowed us to see more sites than anticipated (Parliament Square, Millennium Bridge, outside of St. Paul’s, and others). The fast and easy entrance into Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London took us out of the winds and the crowds. Her skillful commentary throughout the day made both historical and present day London come to life. She welcomed all our questions and photo requests. We didn’t think it was possible to see (and learn) so much so thoroughly in just one day. Highly recommend.

Our daylong private tour of London with Marina was the most wonderful experience. Her skillful planning allowed us to see things we hadn't expected (the outside of St. Paul's, Millennium Bridge, Parliament Square, and other notable landmarks). The fast entrance into Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London took us out of the wind and away from the crowds. Her insightful and enjoyable commentary made everything come alive, and she welcomed all our questions and requests for photos. Never thought we'd accomplish (and learn) so much so completely in just one day. Highly recommend.

I selected Let Me Show You London for 2 tours (Westminster/Tower of London and Churchill’s War Rooms) based on the extremely positive reviews on Trip Advisor. Both tours exceeded my high expectations. Denisa was extremely helpful during the planning process and gave some excellent advice regarding my itinerary in London. The day prior, she provided an email with detailed instructions on the meeting points for both tours. The day of the tours both guides texted us with their contact information. Marina and Denisa were fantastic guides; very knowledgeable and we learned a lot of from both tours. Marina had to make some changes on the fly to our transportation arrangements when Trafalgar Square traffic was shut down by a protest. We still had time for an excellent lunch spot she recommended AND meet the timeline for Tower of London. She also helped us find a cab at the end of the tour. Both tours are outstanding, we had a great time with both guides and I highly recommended Let Me Show You London.

Travel O · TripAdvisor · Sep 2022 · 5 stars

Wow wow wow. This was a great tour. Everything was perfect. I don't often take tours – usually want to explore on my own. This was a short trip and we wanted to pack as much in as possible so we decided to book a tour. I've now become a fan of tours. Marina waited for us at the meeting point ahead of schedule. She was pleasant and extremely knowledgeable, even in answering our questions that were not directly related to the tour. She was prepared and kept us all engaged – adults and teens. It was clear she was prepared to engage any age. I was worried that I'd feel "trapped" in a long tour but it was the exact opposite – the day went by so easily and comfortably and I can't believe how much we saw and learned. I could not recommend the tour any more strongly.

Sophy_L · Viator · Sep 2022 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

My family visited the Tower of London with Marina's guide. Before we even arrived at the site, Marina texted us where she would be and helpful tips to get there. Our son was injured and in a wheelchair. Marina immediately recognized the softer areas to make our son's visit less bumpy. He had such an incredible knowledge of the Tower of London and British history in general and brought it all to life with his stories and the way he presented all the information. My 9 and 11 year old LOVED it and were very excited to see the story after your explanations. It truly was one of the best parts of our vacation and I would highly recommend this private tour!

It was the first tour of our vacation and Marina was excellent! We spent the entire day with her and were all very impressed with her personally and as a very knowledgeable tour guide. This helped us get a good "lay of the land" for the rest of our week-long stay.

Elisabeth_T · Viator · Jul 2022 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

It was a wonderful tour. Marina was our tour guide and was incredibly knowledgeable of all the history and stories of the tower and the Crown Jewels. I highly recommend this tour as a must do!

Monica_A · Viator · May 2022 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

If you want to walk around memorable places in London with a fun, knowledgeable, patient and charismatic London connoisseur, you should engage Marina's invaluable services! He made our full day trip around London a once in a lifetime experience. We look forward to our next visit to London, and will definitely contact Marina for the next knowledge-filled and fun-filled adventure.

Dana_M · Viator · Apr 2022 · 5 stars

The team kept in touch with us until we arrived for the tour. It was really nice to meet at the tour site itself, not some offsite spot with an extra trip to the site. Our Blue Badge Guide, Marina, had an engaging style for breathing life into history that would work well for kids, youth and adults alike 🙂 will not hesitate to tour with this team again, and you should do the same.

Anita Lamb · Google · Apr 2022 · 5 stars

We went for a Personal tour with Marina of the Tower of London, it was absolutely amazing we have been on a few personal tours but I can honestly say this was the best tour we have been on and so worth the money. You could tell that Marina has a true passion for history and the way she told stories and explained historical facts was so interesting and informative, the time just flew by but it’s a day that we will always remember, thank you Marina.

Bryan_E · Viator · Mar 2022 · 5 stars

Marina was absolutely fantastic. The experience with her knowledge and just my wife and I was so unique. Had a chance to ask so many questions and learn from a very knowledgeable history expert. Highly recommended!

Kathy_R · Viator · Mar 2022 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

Marina, our guide, was truly exceptional. She is a blue badge guide, which means she is top notch. She knew all the answers to our many questions, and her knowledge of history and interesting stories along the way made her truly outstanding. She was accommodating, made sure each person did well, and was flexible to accommodate our interests. We took private Viator tours all over Europe, and she was one of the best. As with these day tours, wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for a lot of walking and standing. Marina was very understanding if we needed a break. We are fit people, but walking on uneven terrain and cobblestones at times and standing on hard surfaces all day is more tiring, so be prepared (typical for any full day excursion). Tremendously enjoyable day! It's worth every penny. (Don't forget to tip your guide well too. They work very hard to make your experience great and covid really affected their industry over the last two years.)

Kevin_M · Viator · Dec 2021 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

Our tour of Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London was incredible, mainly due to the extensive knowledge, flexibility and personality of our excellent guide Marina. It was clear that he is passionate about offering these tours and the topic. She was wonderful at adapting the commentary to also be interactive with my two teenagers. I would definitely recommend and give the highest rating in our experience.

Marina was an outstanding tour guide. Clear communication, great choice of spots to highlight, very good tempo to tour (not too slow or too fast). Loads of great information. Shared just enough history to delight me without making my wife’s eyes glaze over. Tower would be my “must do” for a London visit. And, Marina’s tour was superb.

Marina was superb. I took this tour with my husband and three sons (20,18.17). Loved that we had a small group and could ask questions. Note this tours doesn't include skip the line tickets. We ended up seeing the crown jewels at the end of the day to avoid the ridiculously long line.

Denisa gave us an amazing tour of the Tower of London. Her extensive knowledge of history was delivered through extremely interesting stories with so many details previously unknown to our history loving group. We were traveling with our older mom using a wheelchair and Denisa was so accommodating and tailored our tour to ensure that all parties were included and were enjoying the tour. We will definitely find Denisa on our next trip to London.

Vikki G · TripAdvisor · Jul 2025 · 5 stars

BEYOND INCREDIBLE!!!!! Wonderful, relaxing, rich, diverse experience seeing all of the highlights London has to offer in a private, relaxed tour with Denisa!!! The day one tours, depends on what you will experience – we toured on a FRIDAY which gave us front row seats to The Changing of the Guards, less crowds, and the ability to walk right into the Westminster Abbey, Tower of London, the Parks, everywhere! The great thing about this tour, and this tour guide – Denisa – is that our tour was curated to our tastes, what we wanted to do, what we wanted to see. I simply emailed Denisa indicating what we wanted to see, and she made it happen! We did not wait for tickets, she had them for us. We did not wait in lines, with her credentials, we were able to walk right in. It was a super fun day, everyone in our family learned so much from the tour, Denisa's expertise, and had an incredible time!!!! So worth it, if you have a half of day in London to tour!!!!!! Thank you so much, Denisa!!! You are AMAZING!!!! 🙂 We had the BEST TIME because of you!!!!

Last week , June 1-7th we traveled to London as a family of 9. We had the wonderful fortune of taking private tours with Let Me Show You London with Denisa. She was spectacular! We have traveled the world over the past 30 years and she was one of the best guides we have worked with. She was knowledgeable, warm, engaging and eager to meet our needs and expectations for the trip. She went out of her way to came very early in the morning to the hotel to insure we would become comfortable with traveling on the Tube. Our group consisted of seniors, adults and kids. She was so artful in engaging all of us in discussion about the sites we visited to maintain our interest. During one of the tours she placed us in an area while waiting for the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace hoping to get a view of King Charles if he left his residence and it happened. We saw the king and received a wave! We had been to London 3 times prior to this trip, yet learned so much more from Denisa. Prior to the trip, she took her personal time to quickly respond to questions and recommendations about restaurants, events and transportation. Denisa truly made our private tours and experience in London so much more memorable. She exceeded all of our expectations. She and Let me Show you London represent the best in professionalism and knowledge! On a scale of 1-10, we would all give Denisa an 11!

nancylynne · TripAdvisor · Jun 2025 · 5 stars

As a family of 9 we had the most wonderful experience this past week in London touring with Denisa. She was warm, engaging, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. She took time to start her day very early so that she could insure that we would know how to use the Tube and get to our destinations. We learned so much history and important facts about London. Denisa found a way to engage both adults and children and maintain our interest for hours. Prior to the trip Denisa provided so many wonderful recommendations for restaurants, evening activities and was so attentive and responsive to the many times I contacted her. My hope is that I can find family and friends who travel to London and encourage them to utilize her service and expertise so they too can have the fabulous experience we had on our private tour. On a scale of 1-10 Denisa gets 11!

We just returned home from a two-week trip to England, spending a few days in London. Since we had limited time in London, we decided to engage a Blue Badge guide from “Let Me Show You London”. The owner, Denisa Podhrazska, was our guide, and she was marvelous! Ahead of our stay, Denisa tailored our two-day tour based on sites we wanted to discover. She was very responsive whenever we contacted her, giving us feedback on what was possible to see in two days. Denisa bought all the tickets beforehand, including for the Tube, so we didn’t have to wait in line at any of the venues. The details in her presentation at each landmark were extraordinary, giving us a full picture of the histories. She even switched seamlessly mid-stream on the second day when we wanted to add another site. In addition, her restaurant recommendations were first rate. If you want an exceptional experience while visiting London, start with “Let Me Show You London”. We give Denisa and her company a rating of 10 out of 10!

Outstanding experience from booking through full day tour! Denisa is communicative, organized, informative, and delightful… and takes great pics to boot!

We look forward to working with her again next time we're in London. Highly recommend!

JeromeW · Viator · Jul 2024 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

Our family really enjoyed this guided tour of London. Denisa was a fabulous guide. The tour began at Westminster Abbey and took us to the expected destinations; Parliament, Big Ben, we get to see a change of shift of the Horse Guard. We walked along James Park Street to Buckingham Palace. Westminster was closed to tourists on this day, so Denisa substituted a tour of the Cabinet War Rooms. This is where Churchill coordinated the British war efforts of World War II. Pretty cool as I'm a bit of a war/history buff. After a nice lunch in an authentic British pub it was a quick tube ride to the Tower of London. Lots of history there as the purpose of the land has changed many times over the years. We witnessed a changing of the Tower Guard and checked out the Crown Jewels. Our tour ended there and even our children were satisfied.

**Title: Exceptional Tour Guide Experience with Denisa at the Tower of London**Our recent visit to the Tower of London was made truly memorable thanks to our exceptional tour guide, Denisa. From the moment the tour began, it was evident that she possessed a profound knowledge of the Tower's history and an infectious enthusiasm that brought the past to life.Denisa's storytelling was captivating, blending historical facts with intriguing anecdotes that made each stop on the tour fascinating. Her ability to engage with the kids (ages 6 to 13), answer questions thoughtfully, and provide insightful context enhanced our understanding and appreciation of this iconic landmark.Moreover, Denisa was incredibly personable and attentive, ensuring that everyone in the group felt included and comfortable throughout the tour. Her passion for history and dedication to providing an enriching experience were evident in every aspect of the tour.Thanks to Denisa, our visit to the Tower of London was not just educational but also immensely enjoyable. She added personal touches by ensuring we got time to get souvenirs as well as great places to eat lunch. I highly recommend her as a tour guide to anyone looking to explore this historic site. Her expertise and enthusiasm truly set her apart.

Our flight into London was cancelled multiple times delaying our trip and causing us to need to cancel many things. Denisa was absolutely amazing in working with us to reschedule our Tower of London tour to make sure we were able to see something on our wishlist during our shortened visit. She was so friendly and just generally a fun person to hang out, and her knowledge about the Tower was unmatched. Everyone at the Tower knew her and spoke to her, it’s very obvious she has an excellent reputation. I highly recommend using her company when visiting London.

Marty_B · Viator · May 2024 · 5 stars

Though I’m sure we would have enjoyed the Tower of London on our own or with a larger group tour, there is no comparison to a private tour. To have an expert guide escort you through the grounds and buildings while providing so much historical information and little factoids really made our visit to the Tower so special. Our guide Denisa was very knowledgeable and a wonderful storyteller. We never felt rushed and she knew all the little cubbies to tuck into to share some special points with just our group (we were there on a holiday week so a bit crowded). We all agreed our tour was well worth the cost and we highly recommend.

We hired "Let me show you London" for a tour of the Tower of London and a local tour in Bath. Denisa was great to work with, she was very flexible with our date requests. We thoroughly enjoyed her expertise and our boys (8 and 11) loved hearing about the history of the tower and all the cool stories. She made it very entertaining for them and engaged them throughout the tour. We did the Bath tour with Andrew, and he was equally wonderful. He was a wealth of knowledge, and also did a marvelous job engaging the kids. The boys keep talking about all the cool facts they learned. We could tell how much both Denisa and Andrew enjoy what they do, and we feel lucky we got to learn so much from them. I would recommend them to anyone that is interested in learning about the amazing history of the tower and Bath (with or without kids) – they were wonderful. Thank you both for making our trip so memorable. We wish we could have had more time with you both! Wishing you the best in 2024 and we hope we can come back and do other tours with you! – Mercedes, Dan, Julian, & Lachlan.

Best Tour Ever!! If you are interested in any tour while you are in London, book Let Me Show You London!!! My sister-in-law and I booked a private tour of Westminster Abbey & London Tower and could not have been happier. Denisa was fantastic. We covered so many locations and learned so much! We got to see the changing of the guards, parks, the Crown Jewels and so much more! Really there is too much to list.She read our personalities so well, she gave the perfect amount of time and information for each place and instance. We weren't bored or irritated with long drawn out displays of information. We learned about the history in such a fun way! We were even able to get into Westminster Abbey first with not a single person there yet. I was able to get breathtaking pictures. We discussed London, the Royals, the people and just so much more. Such a plethora of fun information. We were also given great guidance and suggestions for the remainder of our time in London.Communication from booking to the day of the tour was professional and I was made aware of the process every step of the way. There were no questions about where we were meeting or what we were doing. In fact, she came to our hotel and picked us up the day of the tour to make it easier for us! The only downside is we were visiting a few other countries after London and had tours scheduled, the bar was set so high it wasn't matched anywhere else. She made sure at the end of the tour that we had options to get back to our hotel and we were not just "left" somewhere in London. Again, truly a professional and such a great person. We laughed and laughed all day long.This is a MUST for anyone. There are tour options that are both private and for smaller groups. Pick this tour company, true professionals and just honestly fun!

Our trip to London was an amazing experience. Let me show you London took care of every single little detail on each tour we took. Their tour guides Lucy & Julio were top notch. Lucy knew every single detail of the tour sites we visited, & answered every single question we had. And her ability to tell a story with such emphasis had us spellbound. Julio, did an amazing job on the most important tour "Downton Abbey". It was the reason we chose London & he made our tour fantastic all the way down to the delicious picnic lunch.They were always on time at pick up, gave us great suggestions on where to eat, shop & must see's when we were on our own time. Our London trip memories for our 40th wedding anniversary will stay with us forever, and of course we'd love to visit again, hopefully soon.Thank you, Danisa, Lucy & Julio with Let me show you London

Excellent, in depth tour. Our guide, Denisa, was knowledgeable and entertaining. We had 2 adults and 3 teens, and she kept all of us engaged in the experience. She customized the tour for our interests/ages. We visited the Tower of London, saw the Tower ravens (Poppy came out to meet us), stopped at Traitors’ Gate, explored the Bloody Tower… We even saw “the word,” the ceremony in which a Beefeater gives Tower Soldiers the new password for the day. Last, we saw the crown jewels. The collection and it’s history are really something!We thoroughly enjoyed our time!

We visited the main sites, some little unknown secrets of the city, traveled by public transport and had lunch together in a pub. Great person, and wonderful personality.

Sharon L · TripAdvisor · Jun 2023 · 5 stars

I took a group of first time London visitors to the city in June. Because we had limited time there (just 1.5 days), I decided to enlist the help of Denisa at Let Me Show You London and we ended up arranging two private tours – one private tour of the British Museum on our arrival afternoon and a full day tour of Westminster, St Paul’s Cathedral, and the Tower of London.Marianna was our guide for both tours and she was amazing. Knowledgeable and enthusiastic, she made both tours great. We even experienced a fire alarm at the British Museum and she was proactive in talking to the guards to see if and when we had to evacuate and once we did evacuate, she again didn’t hesitate to ask how long it would take to re-enter.Even I, who has been to London numerous times and who has visiting all of the places before, thoroughly enjoyed the tour.Since it was warm and we walked a lot, she was very conscientious about our energy level and made quite a few adjustments at the Tower of London to minimize steps, but again the tour was still fascinating.I would definitely work with both Denisa and Marianna again in the future.

Highly recommend doing a private tour like this, you will get so much more out of the experience! Also, we did the afternoon tour which ends after sunset so fun to see the Tower and bridge lit up!

I have had two other tours of the Tower and this one was so much better than any I have done. Just our family and our guide, Denisa, who was incredible. Extremely engaging with our family and really got the kids into it. Highlight of the week.

I have used Denisa’s Company for three tours in London and she has been so easy to work with, attentive to our interests and so much more than accommodating. This past trip the Queen had just passed so our trip to Windsor Castle was not possible but Denisa helped us only days before, rearrange our day trip discussing our options and coming up with a fantastic day, a highlight of our visit! To top that off, our flight from US was very late so our trek to The Tower wasn’t possible but Denisa rearranged that segment so we were still able to see the Crown Jewels and abit of The Tower. Lucy has been our tour guide for all three trips and she is the absolute best!! She has a fun personality, really knows her stuff and just makes visiting and learning about London addictive. These two ladies are worth every pound spent – the best and I promise you won’t be disappointed!!

Denisa was an excellent tour guide. We start at Westminster Abbey and end at the Tower of London. This was a walking tour, with public transportation between sights when walking was too far. It's a great way to see London, especially since we had good weather that day. With rain it would have been more difficult. The itinerary listed was quite ambitious. We spent almost two hours at Westminter Abbey, walked to Buckingham Palace and watched the end of the changing of the guard, took the tube to Paul's Street for 30 minutes, had lunch and went to the Tower of London for the rest of the day. That was all we could do, and it was enough. Denisa never ran out of story for us and we thoroughly enjoyed her company all day.

LMSYL were great to deal with for enquiries, booking and delivery of their tour. Despite some date changes that have become normal around travel these days we were warmly welcomed by Denisa and given a really interesting tour around central London. One of my group wasn’t brilliant with English but it was never a hassle to augment an explanation, we really valued that. We were shown lots of sights, told facts and stories you’d not just find on Wiki and given a great day out. I’ll be using LMSYL again when I next visit, they’re easily the best I’ve used. Thanks again Denisa

Our family of four took two tours on two different days with Denisa. We took a walking tour of London as well as a tour of the Tower of London. We found her to be extremely friendly and knowledgeable. She had a wealth of information about everything that she showed us. She even knew smal details like the names of the ravens at the Tower! We would highly recommend any tour with Denisa!

M G · TripAdvisor · Aug 2016 · 5 stars

We had a great day with Denisa – we are a family with two relatively small children and we saw a lot of this wonderful city (Westminster, St. Pauls, Tower etc.). Everything was well prepared and with all this specific knowledge it is much easier to get around – very quick and to the point. Denisa knows a lot of the background and she made it very targeted to the kids. She gave us a few great tips on restaurants and other things to see by ourselves. Very recommendable !

Romingscots · TripAdvisor · Aug 2016 · 5 stars

Living at the other end of the country we don't visit too often, or know London very well, but Denisa made lots of very useful and practical suggestions and made sure that we fitted in everything that we were looking for. Her knowledge of the City is excellent, whether it is of the tourist haunts, the historical areas or shopping and eating. She even helped direct us to a great area to stay when visiting the City, which was handy for everything we wanted to do. On top of all that the 2 hour tour we did with her showed us St Paul's and beyond, including the Tower, an area we hadn't really seen before. Lots of information and a good pace with a friendly and very flexible approach. We would not hesitate in recommending her for anyone else visiting London, whether they think they know where they would like to go, or have no idea and we will be booking Denisa again for future visits. First class.

chrism12345342 · TripAdvisor · Aug 2016 · 5 stars

I booked a tour with Denisa for my partner and I on a short trip to London. It is clear that she really knows a lot about many different historical and cultural aspects of the city. We spent 2 hours in the National Gallery looking at a number of paintings and were given a comprehensive tour of the highlights. Denisa also gave us a walking tour round some of the sights of the city. She was more than happy to adapt her tour to our interests and the small amount of time we had. Would highly recommend her for your trip to London.

Stuart_L · Viator · Jun 2025 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

It's the only way to see the Tower of London! Lucy really brought history alive, taking our group through centuries of British monarchs. It was fascinating to hear about intrigues and murders in the very rooms where it all happened. We have young people in our family, ranging in age from 10 to 17, and they were spellbound. I imagine visiting the Tower of London in a large group or without a guide would be a pretty dry experience. This was so entertaining and educational at the same time. It's worth it!

Nadeera_D · Viator · Sep 2024 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

Lucy was such a magnificent Guide. She knew so much, and was professionally knowledgeable and so kind to my mother and me as this was our first trip to London. It really makes a difference to have a Guide. One day my mother and I went to Buckingham Palace alone to see the front of the palace and we got totally lost. We had booked the Westminister Abbey tour the next day and it was so amazing and such a contrast to our day out by ourselves. Lucy took us on the tube (we had never done this before!) and we arrived at Westminister Abbey and she spent a lot of time talking about the church, and went into depth about royalty and rich English history. I had no idea that so many famous people such as Newton, and Queen Elizabeth the First, are buried in Westminister. Mom and I were very impressed with Lucy and her knowledge. Also, she was kind enough after Westminister to take us to Parliament Square, St James Park and walk to Buckingham Palace (the front of it). This time, having her (compared to the previous day when we didn't), made our visit to the grounds of Buckingham Palace (the exterior only) more memorable because she told us about Clarence House, the statue of Queen Victoria, and other details of the exterior of the Palace that we had no idea about. We were also in a better mood because we felt like we were learning a lot and getting more out of our trip by having a Guide like Lucy. We feel very lucky to have had Lucy as a Guide. Thank you very much Lucy who made our trip and Impression of England so wonderful.

Our guide, Lucy Adey Compton, was excellent. We couldn't have had a better experience. Lucy is a very knowledgeable person who clearly loves her subject. She was able to answer each and every question we asked her. We came with a good knowledge about the Tower, so she could take us to where we were and move forward with ease. It was a very long tour, but the time flew by. We would love to have it again when we visit.

Lucy our guide was exceptional. She knew everything. I love all things British especially the history and thought I was pretty well informed. She gave those little extras that were so fun to hear. Just three of us–my husband and our daughter. We didn't have lines; she told us everything in the shade; just perfect.

Reviews — Galina (31 reviews)

Melissa_G · Viator · Sep 2025 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

Galina was an excellent tour guide. He sent a message the day before to tell us where to meet. As a Blue Badge holder, she was incredibly knowledgeable and kept us interested throughout the entire tour. She guided us around the Tower of London to minimize queues and prepared us in advance as to what we were going to see when we went to an area where she was not allowed to talk to us. His explanations of The Crown Jewels, along with the photos he had, really prepared us for what we were going to see and the story behind them. It really enhanced the whole experience. At the end of the tour, she walked us all the way to the subway station to make sure we got on the right train. I definitely recommend this tour.

Galina was amazing and far beyond our expectations. Our cruise ship was late, which caused him to have to wait for us, which he handled perfectly. Knowledgeable guide. Perceptive. Very adept at working our way through the Tower of London to minimize crowds. I absolutely recommend it for future travelers.

omayra_t · Viator · May 2025 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

Honestly, this has been the best tour I've ever done. Galina, our tour guide was wonderful. She was right on time, very knowledgeable, managed time perfectly, and was very personable. All the information provided was interesting and off topic; even though he also knew the history behind each monument and place of interest. We wanted to see a couple more places on the route that were not included in the then itinerary and Galina went out of her way to accommodate us. She included my daughter in the conversations and was always attentive to her. Wonderful tour and wonderful guide!

We had an AMAZING tour. Galina, our guide, was fantastic. It was a great start to the trip and a wonderful way to keep the kids active after a long flight. We walked about 4 miles total, but Galina paced everything very well and gave us options to get from Westminster to St. James to the Tower of London. She was great at keeping the kids (ages 10, 6, and 4) engaged. Would definitely recommend!

Nadeera_D · Viator · Nov 2024 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

I apologize for the late review but I did my Tower of London tour with Galina and she was an excellent tour guide for my mother and I in August. I had used the same tour company for Westminister Abbey and both tours exceeded expectations. I received a text the day before regarding my guide and meeting place. Galina was full of knowledge, and took her time to explain all the details and stories of the Tower of London in a way that entertained us. She had props showing us Crown Jewel photo cards to explain each one to us before we went in to see the Crown Jewels, so when we got to the Crown Jewel section of the Tour we knew what we were looking at. It really helped my mom and I understand everything very well. Galina made the day so much fun for mom and me. She was friendly, enthusiastic and we learned a lot from her. I am very grateful for Galina. I recommend her 100% as a tourist guide. Thank you very much Galina. If we hadn't had an individual private tour, I don't think Mom and I would have enjoyed the day as much. I totally recommend a private tour, as there are so many secrets on the London Tour, and with a private tour you can ask as many questions as you want and take your time! Tickets included in the tour

We are two couples who traveled together to London. Visiting the Tower of London was something that was on our bucket list. We booked this private tour and were not disappointed. Our tour guide, Galina, was very knowledgeable and enjoyed telling us all about the tower and its history. She was respectful of the fact that some of us had difficulty walking on uneven pavement and climbing stairs. She gave us "sit" breaks throughout our tour. We all agreed that we wouldn't have learned as much if we hadn't booked this tour and we highly recommend it.

We took the private tour of Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London. It was great, and our guide Galina couldn't have been better. She made everything interesting and personal for us. They guided us through all the significant points of the Abbey. We were introduced to the history, culture and architecture of the Abbey and Tower. We also looked at Buckingham Palace, St. Paul's Cathedral and other points of interest. We also went to Borough Market as part of our personalized tour. There was a bit of walking involved, and we were tired at the end, but we saw everything much clearer and closer this way. We saved time with the guide and also had a special entrance to the Abbey, while the Tower of London was a short wait. Galina was very pleasant and informative throughout the tour. I can't say enough about the great job they did. We totally recommend the tour and hope you also get a guide like we had.

It took us back 1000 years and we felt like we were there alongside Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII! She is incredibly lively and a wonderful storyteller. He had us captivated from the moment the tour began. She is also very kind, considerate and didn't care at all about the time she spent with us. It was a lovely experience. It's worth every penny!

Out tour guide Trudee was amazing. We did a private tour and she tailored it just for us. We started at 9 and she suggested we go straight to the Jewel House to beat the long lines later in the day and she was right! We waited 10 minutes however later the line was over an hour! My 80 year old parents were on the tour so she found benches in the shade for periodic breaks while she would share the incredible history of the Tower. She is incredibly knowledgeable, a great storyteller and very fun. I highly recommend it

Paul’s, which was a beautiful area with more history and stories. We enjoyed our tour of the Tower of London and Galena's knowledge and storytelling kept us engaged all afternoon.

On return, driver advised to avoid Trafalgar, which advice he disregarded and it took 1 3/4 hours. Drivers may know London streets but should use Google Maps for real time traffic and routing.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. We planned this tour for the afternoon of our arrival in London from the U.S. Our guide was most informative and pleasant. I highly recommend the private tour.

JOHN_Y · Viator · May 2024 · 5 stars (translated from Spanish)

The pace was determined by our interests and the guide was very informative and met our needs. A private tour for our small group is worth it as we could determine our own pace and most efficient use of time.

My daughter and I recently booked a private tour with Let Me Show You London. What a wonderful group to work with to plan a day full of adventures that are of interest to YOU. We enjoyed every minute and saw so much more than if we had planned the day ourselves. We skipped long lines and were privy to back doors to bypass the congestion. Our guide was a wealth of knowledge on London history. The day was worth every penny. Enjoy!

We loved watching the band parade to the palace and the Royal Guard. The Crown Jewels and Tower of London were also a highlight. But the whole day was great.

What a fabulous tour with an exceptional guide! Martina was amazing, and we loved her friendly, personal demeanor, her wealth of knowledge, and her offer to tailor the tour to our interests/needs (although none were required because the length, her flow through the Tower of London, and the scope of her information was perfect!). We have done many tours in places all over the world, and the tour guide absolutely makes or breaks the experience – Martina was a total win for sure! I definitely recommend it!

This tour, led by Denissa, was informative and comprehensive. She sent great information about riding the train to find her, which made our start easy. We had a member of our group with some physical challenges. He quickly got a wheelchair and he was able to continue. At each location, he shared a wealth of information that allowed us to better understand each location. It was a lot of walking, so if you choose this tour you should be in pretty good shape.

We had a great time and wouldn’t have covered as much ground without an expert guide! It’s a huge space but Daniela’s tour took us in an expert order and shared stories we would have never known. Other guests would tuck in closer to us to hear her stories! I would highly recommend the personal attention and she coordinated picking up our tickets.

I've been waiting to see the Tower of London for years. This was our first trip to London and I wasn't going to miss it. We had a very knowledgeable guide who took us to the places we were interested in seeing. We saw the Crown Jewels, which is nice, but the history and architecture were much more exciting. Good time, great tour guide!

zalbert2019 · Viator · Sep 2019 · 5 stars

Our guide, a young lady, was extremely knowlegable of English history and gave us a thorough insight of the history of Windsor and all of its inhabitants throughout the ages. I can highly recommend a private tour with our guide. We managed to get trapped in the lift in the Tower basement for half an hour; but this only added to the adventure. We now claim that we were also prisoners in the Tower of London.

The three of us visited on the hottest day on record in London! It was very hot! Our guide, John Rasmussen, was so good to keep us out of the sun on this day! We got to see the ravens flying around and where they are kept. He urged us to see the crown jewels before the crowds came. He was very knowledgeable about the tower and its history. He answered all our questions and even asked a Yeomen of the Guard to pose for us. We couldn't have asked for a better guide. Thanks John!

I have never had a tour in a museum before, but wow. I will definitely do it again! Our guide explained the history and folklore behind the paintings. It was like a friend taking you to her favorite places. Our children age 9 and 11 were able to remember what paintings we saw and why they were important. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

gigibites · TripAdvisor · Mar 2019 · 5 stars

We had a group with 6 kids and she was absolutely incredible! Very informative and extremely engaging with the children! We did a trip to Paris with a “children specialist” tour and she was just as good if not better!! It felt like we were hanging out with a local friend from the first minute we met her. We recommend her highly and we hope to book again with her in the future!
