‘We had the absolute best tour guide this morning for the Tower of London tour. Her name was Alice and she was unreal. My kids were hugging her when she left us, she was so endearing! She handled the kids beautifully, answered their million questions and was super patient. I can't say enough good things so please pass on my highest appreciation!’

‘Alice Trickey was a great guide. It felt like I was getting a custom, personalized tour. I really enjoyed the afternoon walks with Alice and the chance to pepper her with questions. I could not believe the amount of knowledge Alice has packed into her skull. She was also very good at sheparding the group around a busy city without insulting our intelligence. She was great.’
