  • "Booked as a birthday treat for my husband and it was perfect! We had Ryan as our tour guide who was fantastic. Clearly a massive Bond fan himself and full of facts and trivia! Also, really engaging and got our small group chatting with each other. It's a really great way to see the sights as the Bond locations are all the places to see! Definitely good value for money and a perfect alternative to staring at your phone all day trying to figure out where to go next. Thanks again Ryan!"

  • "A relevant and highly enjoyable tour on both real and fictional spies! Ryan was a passionate guide, with more stories and anecdotes to share than there was time for. He very nicely balanced the history of spies in the UK with James Bond movies shooting-related fun facts, all while keeping a critical perspective on both. We really enjoyed our tour, and highly recommend it!"

  • "A very entertaining tour with a knowledgeable guide. This tour was really fun. Jamie had a very good knowledge of the Bond universe. Along the 2 hours and a half walk he delivered a bunch of anecdotes. He was very entertaining and made the discussions very interactive thru short quizzes. Thanks again Jamie, we are going to tell our friends the fun we had. I hope your business will develop in the future years."

As a big JB movies fan I was delighted to see locations I knew from the movies but was unable to trace them myself. A very thoughtful guide, with incredible knowledge, on top he had a tablet and had all the movie fragments prelates for me so no need to remember everything. I highly recommend this tour and will surely book more wit this company on my next visit to London. Thank you for a lovely JB morning!"
