About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- andywW7336JJ0 contributionsGuide didn’t turn upDon’t book this. Start time was 2pm and we arrived at 1:45. Stood in the cold until 2:30 waiting for a guide who never turned up. No communication from anyone or any company involved. We are so let down as we love Dickens and had spent time and money to experience this. Waiting on Tripadvisor response to refund request.Written December 1, 2024
- sherrytL7058QD0 contributionsWonderful Fab Four Taxi Tour in Liverpool!My husband and I were treated to a wonderful tour of Liverpool, visiting everything one would hope to see on a tour of important Beatles sites…Penny Lane, Strawberry Field, childhood homes, and many more. Our Guide and driver, Peter, is well versed in Beatles lore, gave us time to look around and take pictures, is a great driver and a very nice person! We highly recommend the Fab Four tour!Written October 29, 2024
- gamlam0 contributionsJonathan, A fabulous guide for the Agatha Christie TourWe thoroughly enjoyed the entire Agatha Christie tour. Jonathan went above and beyond to provide us with lots of interesting information, accompanied by photos, at each stop on the tour. We are already planning our next tour with Brit Icons.Written October 28, 2024
- vladim_rab20200 contributionsA must for any horror fanI've had an amazing time on the walking tour! Got the voucher as a secret Santa present last year and kept putting it off as I believed it would be great for Halloween time! Definitely didn't disappoint. Very immersive, very interesting, I've learned so many new things about an area that is definitely not new to me. Declan was wonderful, knowledgeable and able to pull you into the story fully. I'll recommend to anyone I know! In the end I even bought the book he wrote and I can't wait to read it and learn even more about the many horror stories of London.Written October 25, 2024
- alisoncP9514NI0 contributionsBrit Icon Tours - Private Underground TourThis tour was really interesting. The history of the underground is amazing. Rory (our tour guide) knew his stuff and answered all our questions. I was disappointed that the £80 didn't include traveling around on the underground between stations. I would've thought this would be included for £80 but Experience Days (who we booked through) didn't tell us. Brit Icon Tours were very helpful. Not happy with the service from Experience Days so I would book straight through Brit Icon Tours. Definitely a tour for train enthusiasts.Written October 22, 2024

Although he doesn’t like being called Phil for short his jokes are very hilarious with his interesting facts about Jack the Ripper this man deserves a raise and a house in Dubai and a grand throne. Very pleasant experience we need more Philips without the e on the end in the world.Written July 16, 2024

There were six of us on this walking tour of Notting Hill, a lovely group of four from Iceland and the two of us from Essex. Our guide, Jordan, took us through the streets of Notting Hill, passing by celebrity haunts and houses and through the renowned Portobello Road market which was in full swing. We saw other landmarks and various film locations. I believe in total we saw 53 separate points of interest. Jordan had countless stories to tell and also gave us an historical background on the area dating back centuries when it was a pig farming community. He also had a few other things up his sleeve, but I won’t divulge these so as not to spoil the experience for his future walking companions. It was a really enlightening, educational and fun experience and I can highly recommend this tour. Thanks Jordan.

What a great walking tour given by a fantastic tour guide, Jordan.
Jordan was so friendly and knowledgable about the area and gave us great stories behind all the sights that we saw (including a story of how Banksy painted street art on someone's building!). We could never have gotten all of the same information doing the tour ourselves. He pointed our celebrity homes and movie sites along with tons of stories. This was one of the best tours we did in London and highly recommend to anyone visiting.

So many highlights on this tour ! Maybe Hugh Grant snd Julia Roberts hidden garden or Mr Greubers shop where he and Paddington shared marmalade sandwiches. Spotting the Banksy up on a wall, seeing the studio where Band Aid sang and filmed Do they know it’s Christmas.
Not too much walking in this tour as all in a concentrated area but so many famous sights from movies and from history.
The guide was great. Informative and even a bit of a magician !
I have done 5 walking tours in the last couple of weeks and this one I enjoyed the most.
Plus when the tour finishes you are right in the middle of the market, so lunch snd shopping all on the one day

This walking tour of Notting Hill was led by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide who informed us of the history of the Notting Hill area. It was interesting to learn how the movie's creator or director (not sure) lived in Notting Hill and placed the movie there with the hopes that his property values would increase, which surely happened! We saw houses ranging from £2 million to £45 million. We learned about various prominent residents, past and present, in the neighborhood. The Portobello Road Market was lots of fun. We also enjoyed touring the area that was primarily Jamaican. At the end of the market there is a spot with food kiosks from varied countries that is worth experiencing.

Great tour. Our guide Catherine was very welcoming and friendly. She knows everything about Notting Hill and she showed us pictures of the film scenes while walking by the relative places. It was a pleasure to spend time with her.

The Notting Hill Tour was so much fun. Our tour guide, Jordan, was incredibly funny and so knowledgeable about the area. He filled the tour with fun anecdotes and interesting facts beyond what you would read online or in a guidebook. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting London. My friend has even done this tour twice and loved it both times.
