Everything worked out great. If you use the link in the confirmation email, you can also connect to the go City app. Important for the explanations and sometimes additional codes for reservations. We visited the Tower, Westminster Abbey, Arsenal football stadium and The View from the Shard (note: you have to make a reservation). Everything went smoothly!

It is an excellent option to see some of the most important attractions in London. We had no problem with the tickets, at each attraction they can be scanned directly from your cell phone. The application sends you notifications frequently.

Really satisfied! The audio guide allowed us to visit the city at our own pace and discover it little by little. He also gave us a lot of tidbits about the different places we visited. Complete regarding information!

The tour was a great way to experience the gallery. Strabo was cheerful and informative. I would really recommend.

Well organized and very personable! Took us exactly where we wished to go. Great day all around!
