I deeply regret not to have booked the option with guided visit in Windsor Castle. At the beginning, I thought I could visit the castle by my own, but the guide was truly good and explained everything in a way that everyone could understand. I´m thinking about booking it again!

Chrissy and her trusted polish driver were great all the way. Found the Vox headset not very useful when I used it at the back of the group, static noises and interruptions mostly. Apart from that no issues.

This was a superb trip. We were lucky to have the most charming guide (Rowan), a chilled bus driver and an expert guide at Stonehenge. Tours don't get better than this!

Robert does an amazing job with this tour! He definitely made the entire day so much more interesting. Thank you Robert!

Sophie is a great tour guide and amazing storyteller…
