My family and I are full of positive emotions because of Guided Sherlock Holmes Walking Tour provided by Ian on February 4. 2023. It appeared to be a great proposition to our group to have Ian as a guide. Our guide was speaking to us about Sherlock and London with light and pleasant irony, smartly connecting the imagination and real facts. He made an unforgettable tour where a bright and elegant picture of London was gently joined with an attractive story of a great Londoner - Sherlock Holmes. Undoubtedly we'll tell our friends and acquaintances about Ian and this tour and recommend purchasing it.

Excellent walking tour for the Sherlock Holmes entusiast taking in many different locations. Our guide, Steph, was excellent and shared a lot of interesting information. Steph's knowledge was exceptional and she had great energy throughout the walk. Certainly recommended if you have a couple of hours to spare.

Fantastic tour, very enjoyable. Lots of interesting content and facts. Our guide Steph was amazing! I would highly recommend booking and we will definitely look to book other tours through the same sight. As a sherlock fan, my partner thoroughly enjoyed it, and as someone who has never seen or read any sherlock stories, I still found it a great tour.
