What an interesting tour! Rod shares the history of London seen through a different lens. Valuable information placed into context while walking the streets of London. I’m looking forward to reading the book Rod offers at the end of the tour. Food for thought brought to you by an inspiring guide!

My husband and I were in London celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and looking for something unique to do. This tour delivered. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and engaging. We got information that we could not have learned anywhere else. We also got a nice tour of the city and multiple black history lessons along the way. Highly recommend!

Rod is very knowledgeable of black history in London UK. So much of London is Royal history but it’s a great opportunity to see how minority history is sprinkled across London. It’s a great walking tour with so much information. Others rescheduled their tour; greatly appreciate he gave me a 1:1 private tour. Put your walking shoes on!
