Follow in the footsteps of Jackson Lamb and his bullied underlings - Witty and well paced, a good fun and very informative walk. Suzannah was very entertaining. Highly recommended 👍. You feel as though you have caught a glimpse of them all. Except you wouldn't, would you...?

Slow Horses Tour - We love a walking tour and this didn't disappoint. The Slow Horses insights were good fun and an added bonus was walking around the Barbican. Thank you Suzanna for your enthusiasm and knowledge of the area.

We are now very clear that this area had much more to it than simply being the backdrop for a tv series about misfits! - This was a fabulous tour and, although the theme was linked to the tv series ‘Slow Horses’, we learned lots of other things about the area around Islington and the City of London. To be recommended - thank you!

Fantastic and Informative Tour - After binge-watching Slow Horses, I was thrilled to come across this tour, which was equally informative and entertaining. Not only do you get to visit some of the show's key locations, Susannah also gives you a bit of London history throughout and a pretty spot-on Jackson Lamb impersonation. I was thrilled to learn different facts about real espionage as well as the fictional stuff you get to see on the show. I highly recommend this tour to all fans of Slow Horses.

Loved the series, loved this walking tour - If you love the series, you'll love this walking tour. Step into the shoes of Jackson Lamb as he rounds up his troop of "Slow Horses" and recall the major landmarks as you walk around Central London. A great way to spent a couple of hours with fellow fans.
