Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, all our tours are private and can be customized to our guests’ interests.
Behave like London’s royalty for a day with the option to add a boat ride between the Tower of London and Westminster Abbey. Your private tour guide will bring the riverside scenery to life and help you identify local landmarks.
The Abbey is a working church, so it can be closed for major events (funerals/memorial services) at very short notice. Around Christmas, there can be a lot of closures that are not announced until a couple of months in advance. As soon as we hear of any closures, we will let you know.
Our tours are designed for groups of 1-14 people. However, we can certainly cater to larger groups. For groups of over 14 guests, please email us at requests@totallytailored.com and we’ll help you craft your ideal trip.
Tips for your guide are never expected, but they do show you think your guide did a brilliant job! If you would like to tip your guide, please do so directly during the tour (10 – 15% is customary).

Guests Love Our Tours
On our last full day in the city, we did the Best of London in a Day tour. I highly recommend using {Totally} Tailored Tours. Their prices are very reasonable, and you get a lot more out of their private tours than seeing everything on a crowded tour bus.

Charley was so good with all the planning. Austin and George were so wonderful to Mom and to me. Totally Tailored Scotland helped us make wonderful memories and I recommend them highly if you want a custom experience totally tailored to your needs.
I had very specific criteria… so I wanted this food tour to be exceptional & it lived up to expectations. I wanted cider cornbeef etons mess & other British icons. Charley who organized the tour has a deepseated passion for food & loves her job.
