We cannot recommend Melissa more highly. She is knowledgeable, personable and well organized. Her highlights of the British Museum tour was a well thought out logical trip through the vast collection. By the end of our two hours it was like we were long lost friends. We would, without hesitation, book another tour with Melissa.

September 2026Thank you so much for this wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure exploring the British Museum with you and your family, and I’m so glad you enjoyed the tour. I thoroughly enjoyed our time together and would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back for another London adventure someday. Thank you again!
Melissa is very knowledgeable about UK history and culture. Her presentation of the Churchill War Rooms was well organized and included a lot of anecdotes that helped to bring the events to life. Her pre-tour communication was excellent, including suggestions for the other (independent) half of our day. We really enjoyed the time we spent with her.

Melissa was a great tour guide. We were a little taken aback by her great English. She is from California! So that was helpful for us. She gave us so much information it made the tour great!
