Where does Hobnob Tours guide?
​
Hobnob Tours guides around St James', Mayfair, Westminster, Southwark and Hampton Court.
​
Are you taking additional measures to keep members of the tour group safe in view of the pandemic?
​
I accept bookings from up to 5 family or friends meaning that each tour group will comprise a maximum of 6 people - 5 guests and me!
I am quadruple vaccinated against Covid 19. I only wish to guide people who have been vaccinated so if you have not, I would prefer that you do not book one of my tours at the moment.
​
Why book with HobnobTours.London?

What language is spoken on Hobnob's tours?
The King’s English!
What happens if it rains?
The tour will go ahead whatever the weather - bring waterproofs, sensible shoes and an umbrella and you won’t even notice! Funnily enough, it doesn’t seem to rain very often!
How far do we walk on a tour?
This varies from walk to walk but as a rule of thumb, roughly 3 miles.
Can I rearrange the date?
Yes, no problem. Telephone, or e-mail me to rearrange at least one week ahead of the date of the booking.
What is the cancellation policy?
If a tour is cancelled on the date of the booked tour, 100% of the tour fee is payable. There is no charge for cancellations before the date of the tour.
What if we are running late on the day of the tour?
When you confirm a booking with me, I will give you my mobile number so call me to let me know. I try my best to accommodate delays but whether I can or not will depend on my other commitments on the day.
