Had a great time on this tour - took my boyfriend for his birthday and he absolutely loved it. It has made me look around me differently and be curious about everything I pass! Thanks so much - would really highly recommend these tours!

I have to thank Coldplay & Groupon London for discovering London Detours. When Coldplay released their fifth album „Mylo Xyloto“ with that Graffiti on the album cover they said, they were inspired by Street Art & artists like Banksy. So I wanted to find out more about London's famous East & its everchanging art. An offer on Groupon London came... More

Once again my group of students and I followed Joe who brought us to hidden Southwark alleyways in the footsteps of Shakespeare and Dickens. The tale was highly entertaining as Joe is a great guide and knows a lot of tidbits about London that you wouldn't hear elsewhere. Thanks again for a great time and see you next year!

Took the Street Art Tour and the Southwark Tour last week with Joe leading the way. I loved the East End and the Art. Joe tells a story that is cohesive and entertaining. He really wants to make sure the group understands London and its history. I came away from both tours feeling more integrated into the culture of the... More

Dragged my wife to London for the FA Cup Final. With the 'give and take' of married life I had to commit to escort her to the Westfield Shopping Mall. When we got to London we discovered there are two. We decided to head for the one by the Shepherd's Bush tube (that's underground to you) station. Easy cheap travel... More

Great tour - and great guide who genuinely seems to love the subject and London. Time flew by and was a bit sad when tour finished as could have looked around all day. Would recommend even if you don't think street art is your thing - I think by the end of the tour you'll find that it is!!! And... More

Joseph was a great guide of the city of London. My husband and I didn't really know anything about London and Joseph explained the history and other fun "factoids" about the city. He gave us plenty of chances to ask questions and make it more about us then the tour. Our favorite part was drinking at the pub and getting... More
