Britain/United Kingdom/England/walking tours

Question
Can you offer some advice regarding walking tours conducted by commercial tour companies?  I have been unable to find a site on the internet that has objective reviews of these companies or of their tours.  Thank you.

Answer
Hello,
I'm afraid I don't know much about these, but would suggest that you contact the relevant Tourist Information Board or Bureau. For example, if you are planning a walking tour of London, you can contact the 'Visit Britain' official tourist office:

LONDON: BRITAIN & LONDON VISITOR CENTRE
1 Regent Street
Piccadilly Circus
London
Greater London
SW1Y 4XT
blvcinfo@visitbritain.org

For tourist offices elsewhere in England, you can find details at:

Sorry I wasn't able to help more directly this time.
Kind Regards & Happy New Year

Expertise mainly in fields of Tourist Attractions, etc. and in Public Transportation in the UK - particularly for those flying into Gatwick Airport, as I live nearby.(Aussi je parle francais...un peu)

Hopefully having lived here since birth, I will know a fair bit about the area...although I can't claim to know it all!
