The tour guides were happy to answer questions, and clearly know their stuff and are passionate about what they were showing us and talking to us about. I drank some really nice beers too! I’ll definitely be booking other tours of London with this company.

Seeing England win the Euros against Germany this week was epic.
Especially when you think of how it will impact thousands of young girls, showing them football and success is not exclusively for men.
We went down to the Kirby estate in Bermondsey to celebrate.

London boasts countless historical characters but we also have many fictional characters that get
their fair share of attention (think Harry Potter, Paddington, Bridget Jones and Doctor Who).
Arguably the most enduring of them all is Sherlock Holmes.
The iconic detective was created in the Victorian era by author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. By the 1990s he featured in over 25,000 stage adaptations, films, television productions and publications. The Guinness World Records lists him as the most portrayed literary human character in film and television history.
Visit Baker Street station to spot his silhouette on the tiles and a 3-metre-tall bronze statue at the exit. Turn the corner to visit the 'Sherlock Holmes museum' - a few doors down from number 221b as the museum owners couldn't secure the exact address 😂

The sensational curves of the McEwan Hall in Bristo Square, Edinburgh.
Built in 1896, it houses an auditorium that seats 1,700 and is used as a ceremonial hall for graduations from the University of Edinburgh.
This August it will be buzzing with theatre and comedy performances as part of the @edfringe.
The Edinburgh fringe the largest arts festival in the world which returns next month after a 2 year hiatus.
Gorgeous photo taken by our Scottish social media manager @craigraynerworth

Up close at the #nationalgallery
'A still life with Flowers in a Wan-Li vase'
by Ambrosius Bosschaert the Elder
Painted 1609 -1610
The luxurious flowers here are painted in oil on copper with an almost scientific precision.
As London blooms we recommend popping into the National Gallery to get close to this exquisite celebration of nature.
We spot lilies, poppies, tulips, daffodils and peonies as well as a fly, bumble bee, caterpiller and a dragonfly. What have we missed?
Our favourite snaps from the recent #platinumjubilee. Our Queen is the longest reigning Monarch the UK has ever seen
Just two more years and we will beat the European champion, France, who had Louis 14th reigning for just over 72 years (bit of a cheat as he came to power at the age of 5).
Chatting up the locals on our Proper Pub Experience.
Meet the birds on our Royal morning tour.
Today London saw the state opening of Parliament - a 500 year old ceremony which marks the formal start of the parliamentary year. This year Prince Charles carried out the ceremony, reading a speech on behalf of his mother.
Totally Tailored guide Rob was hosting a 'Best of London' tour for the lovely Huttenlocher family (pictured) and managed to get them in prime position to witness this annual event.
Here's what Mom, Julie had to say:
'Oh my goodness….what an absolutely amazing day we had today. I cannot even begin to tell you how much we appreciated everything. Rob was just spectacular. He was full of so much information… my kids cannot stop talking about how much they liked the tour! Thank you!…we are still in awe that we were able to see Charles and William. Olivia was super excited because she got to see the crown in its own car! Super exciting!'
Pecorino Romano done properly @piazzaitalianauk
Yesterday #Trafalgarsquare was buzzing with over 6,000 plants and trees as part of @innocent drinks #rewild project.
While the sustainability credentials of this one-day event have been questioned, there's no doubt it reminds us of how the city and nature can mix beautifully.
