The tour was so fun! The character guide was enthusiastic and had so many stories to tell about each of the sights. The witch facts were interesting and cool to learn about.

We met our witch guide, Felix, at Southwark Cathedral and ended the tour by St Paul's Cathedral. He was very engaging and hilarious. We really enjoyed the tour and it was something a bit fun and different to do in London. I am a local and it was interesting seeing things I didn't previously notice in the area. The tour mentions Harry Potter but it isn't the main focus - it's more of a historical tour dating back to the first so-called witches in England and covering Henry 8th's period as well. I would recommend doing this tour at the 6pm slot and then going out for a nice dinner in the area afterwards.

Felix was a delight! Very knowledgeable and quite a congenial character and made the whole event quite fun. We only had 4 on the tour and when it started to rain Felix said to give him a moment to cast a spell (which he did!) and the rain stopped. You must keep him!!!!
Many thanks for the fun tour!!!

We were a group of four age 60's ladies on a girls trip. We did this tour in-between doing a High Tea at Swan at the Globe and doing a pub crawl. The tour was a lot of fun. Our guide was very personable and a lot of fun. We learned a lot and got some wonderful photos too. Went on the 4 pm tour on May 6. I would definitely recommend this tour to others.

The young woman who was our tour guide clearly enjoyed her job as she played her role. She was comfortable with walking through Londen dress as a witch providing historical facts about witch trials, deaths, etc. It was fun and interesting.

Guide never showed up and no contact to reach guide. Wastddouble the ticket price to cab to the meeting place only to be told they may refund ticket if the provider of the tour agrees! What, charge people, don’t show for the tour don’t contact anyone and no confirmed refund for the ticket

Fun experience, with good facts and knowledge. Well planned and easy meeting point. Worth the money if you wanted a guided walk through the area with the history thrown in.

I loved the script that was associated with this tour! My mom and I were the only two participants so it was a very personable experience and we got to chat with the tour guide more than you would on a group tour. Our guide was amazing and made me laugh a lot, always staying in character and wearing a fun costume!
If you are a massive history buff with a lot of prior knowledge on the general history surrounding witches in Europe, the content itself might not be surprising, but the stories and jokes that go along with it make it worth the re-cap!

After being telephoned by the guide and directed down a secret (and very steep) staircase, we were met by a very cheerful and charismatic witch...
An excellent and informative tour around the dark streets of London. Highly recommended.
