17 Mar 2011 We did the East End Uncovered Tour. Our guide Carol toke us by the hand to discover the trendy and colorful area around Old Street/Shoreditch, showed us very interesting places that a usual tourist guide or book would not present - i don't want to name them here in detail not to spoil the experience :-). Because of March it was only the 2 of us, me and my boyfriend, but the tour was realized despite from that, which was great. So we had a very personal time together with Carol who did a very good job. This was one of the nicest day we ever spent in London! It was very diversified and exciting and on the other hand relaxing to just follow somebody who is familiar with everything for some hours. Carol, if you read this :-) thanks again - and be informed: we have found the mentioned Banksy behind glas at the place "Cargo" in Rivington Street. If you like you can take a look in my facebook pictures. We will look out for other urban adventures in the future.

24 Feb 2011 My guide Joe was great he was very personable and full of excellent information whether it be art related, historical or cultural. I would definitely recommend these tours to a friend and even for people who live in the cities as they may open your eyes to parts of a city that you never knew about before.

24 Feb 2011 Nina was a lovely, enthusiastic guide on a somewhat typical London day (cold and rainy).My feet were a little tired by the end but we certainly covered a lot of ground over the 5 hours. Saw many things in London I would never have noticed or known about otherwise and the background history about London was very informative without being too much of a history 'lesson'. Overall would recommend highly.

04 Oct 2010 I had a great time. Jonnie was a fantastic guide and took 7 of us to loads of very interesting places and we learnt so much. We were lucky to have lovely weather too, so did lots of walking on this city streets explorer, which was by far the best way to see everything. Will definitely go on another Urban Adventure.
