Had a great time on the James Bond and the Spies of Mayfair with Michael as our guide. The weather wasn't great (classic london rain) but Michael did a great job keeping us engaged despite the weather. I've lived in london for 4 years and I learned a lot of things I didn't know on this tour! Highly recommend this tour if you're interested in learning some unique history!

I recently had the opportunity to take a walking tour of London with Michael, a friendly and knowledgeable guide who led us through the city's most interesting sites related to Ian Fleming, James Bond, and real-life spies. Michael was welcoming and engaging, and his passion for the subject matter was evident throughout the tour. The tour covered a variety of locations related to the history and culture of espionage in London, and Michael's expertise on the topic was impressive. He was able to bring the stories to life in a way that made the experience both informative and entertaining. Overall, I would recommend Michael's walking tour to anyone interested in the world of espionage, Ian Fleming, or James Bond. He is a great guide who provides an enjoyable and informative experience.

Wholly engaging with great stories of the 'Women who made Soho'. A most charming, friendly and amusing guide too. We loved it all and will definitely be exploring future walks guided by Michael Duncan.

My adult daughter and I went on this walking tour yesterday and really enjoyed it! Michael Duncan was an excellent guide - friendly and informative and he showed us a very interesting mix of places associated with Americans in London. We discovered a part of London we knew very little about and would highly recommend the tour. We plan to do some of the other tours on offer.
