Reiseverlauf
Im Hampton Court Palace tauchen Sie in die Welt und die ehemalige Residenz eines der berühmtesten Könige Englands, Henry VIII, und seiner vielen Frauen ein. Entdecken Sie die Geschichte dieses historischen Tudor-Palastes mit seinen prächtigen Gebäuden, weltberühmten Gärten, der unschätzbaren Kunstsammlung und den prächtigen State Apartments. Nirgendwo wird die Pracht des Tudor-Hofes lebendiger als in der Großen Halle Heinrichs VIII. Komplett mit seinen originalen prächtigen Wandteppichen. Wenn Sie auf das Dach schauen, denken Sie an das große Können der Handwerker, die es hergestellt haben, und achten Sie auf die "Lauschangriffe" - die geschnitzten und bemalten Köpfe, die das Dach der Großen Halle schmücken. Die Gärten von Hampton Court befinden sich in einem über 60 Hektar großen, atemberaubenden Garten, einschließlich der Landschaftsgestaltung von Lancelot Capability Brown. Das Hampton Court Maze ist natürlich weltberühmt und als ältestes Heckenlabyrinth seit über 300 Jahren verblüfft es die Gäste.
Windsor Castle ist das älteste und größte bewohnte Schloss der Welt. Es war fast 1.000 Jahre lang das Familienhaus britischer Könige und Königinnen und ist heute eine der offiziellen Residenzen Seiner Majestät des Königs. Auf einer Fläche von über 10,5 Hektar bietet das Schloss Besuchern einen abwechslungsreichen Tagesausflug, einschließlich eines Besuchs der prächtigen Staatsgemächer und der St.-Georgs-Kapelle. Die Staatsgemächer des Schlosses sind mit einigen der schönsten Werke aus der königlichen Sammlung ausgestattet und spiegeln den sich ändernden Geschmack der königlichen Bewohner des Schlosses wider, insbesondere die von Karl II. und Georg IV. Viele der Kunstwerke befinden sich immer noch in den historischen Umgebungen, für die sie ursprünglich von den Königen und Königinnen, die in Windsor gelebt haben, gesammelt oder in Auftrag gegeben wurden. Besucher können eine selbst geführte Tour durch das Schloss mit einer kostenlosen Multimedia-Tour machen. Von Oktober bis März können Besucher auch durch die prächtigen Semi-State Apartments spazieren, die im 19. Jahrhundert als Privatgemächer von George IV dienten.

This was extremely disappointing and way overpriced. The only reason to go on a private tour is to have an excellent guide who adds value to the tour. Our guide, while pleasant, had a general knowledge about the subject, but lagged far behind the information we could have gotten from a $7 audio tour of each palace. He was unable to point out interesting features of rooms (ie, art, furnishings) and basically told us nothing. We have travelled to many places since covid with private tours (Barcelona, Rome, Florence, the Florida Everglades, Iceland) and this was by far the worst.
Dear elizabethkY5059IO, Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that your private tour did not meet your expectations and that the guide’s commentary fell short of adding the value you were hoping for. We take all feedback seriously and will use your comments to improve our service and training. We appreciate you giving us the chance to host you and hope future experiences with Evan Evans Tours provide the exceptional quality you deserve. Best regards, The Evan Evans Tours Team
Both our driver (Simon) and our guide (Lesley) were absolutely TOP CLASS! The entire experience could not have been more gracious and enjoyable. And every detail was taken care of seamlessly, from pick up at our hotel, through lunch reservations in Windsor (kindly made on our behalf), to skip the line access to the Castle.
Hi S3167XMshaneg, Thank you for taking the time to share your opinion about our services. We are glad that our team did a great job. We take pride in providing a clean and comfortable space for all of our guests, so our team appreciates that you noticed. We will pass on your kind words over to Lesley and Simon. We hope to welcome you onboard another one of our tours in the future! Best wishes Evan Evans
Although very expensive, this was the best tour I've ever had. Our guide and driver picked us up at our hotel, drove to Hampton Court, dropped us off for lunch, took us to Windsor, and returned us to our hotel. It was worth every dollar. The guide was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. The driver was so sweet you could just drive forever. If you can afford the price, I very highly recommend this superb experience. I feel very fortunate.
Hi Travail7, Thank you so much for this 5-star review. We really appreciate you being a customer and helping to share the word about us. We hope to see you again on another one of our tours! Best wishes Evan Evans
We have always loved Windsor and Hampton Court castles and were so happy we booked this tour. Our guide Karen was the best. She was so knowledgable and shared some great stories. She is well traveled and that provided us some helpful and interesting perspective on history. Would definitely book again!
Dear Guest, Thank you for leaving us feedback about the tour. We are glad that our team did a great job. We work very hard to ensure that our customers get outstanding service, and it makes us very happy that it reflected during your recent visit. Best wishes Evan Evans Team
First of all , at booking , the description says Expert driver- guide. You can opt for an additional guid separate from the driver or our selection , driver -guide. The day started out well enough, with a nice ride to Hampton court through Richmond and a suggested stop near the famous block of “Ted Lasso” for a photo. Then off to Hampton court. To this point everything was fine. Then at Hampton Court our guide let us out and said , “ see ya later!” And did not accompany us as a guide nor did he even stay at the palace ( I’m actually pretty sure he went home as he said he lived not to far from there) a while later he suggested he make a red at a place for lunch and we agreed, he told us just to walk there from Hampton court, now it wasn’t a far walk, but we were completely lost on the grounds of Hampton court and walking with 4 kids for over 3 hours, it would have been nice to have door to door service for the $1700 + USD we paid. We ate our lunch and emailed the company about our disappointment that the driver did not guide us, on pick up from lunch , we asked to charge my iPhone- he did not have a charger, not water etc. we then drive to Windsor palace where we were almost in 2 accidents on the motorway because of his aggressive driving. The ride was terrifying. He said he would walk us through Windsor palace “ for efficiency “ and this is after my complaint so I don’t know if they was why he came with us. We got there and had to wait in a queue for him for 20 min while he got tickets ( this should have been dealt with ahead of time for this price) then he gave us the speed walking version of a tour, speaking to me and my husband when we could keep up with him, never once did he even talk to the kids or involve them. I would have gotten more from an audio tour. The. The ride home was very tense the whole time because of his aggressive driving. I came home an immediately called the company to complain, they told me to email them so it would be a formal complaint, and so I did. 24 hours later and I still have not heard one work from them. I would have expected for this price to have had a day where I was informed and felt safe at the very least , this tour was the biggest waste of money , and the company has done nothing to try to remedy the situation. Do Not book with Evans & Evans. I am being generous with 2 stars and that was only because at least the car was a nice clean car and the Mercedes’ v class as expected.
Dear Sarah, Thank you very much for taking the time to leave us a review. We are very sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience. We have approached our supplier and we are now waiting for their full report. We are also checking Viator to ensure clarity of information on tour inclusions and exclusions. We can see our colleague has been in touch with you offline and once we have received a full report from our supplier we will get back to you to reach a resolution. Thank you for your patience, Evan Evans team
My guide, Mark Cairns, is a self professed lover of English history and recounted some is the more interesting bits of history than you get with the average audio tour. The day out was a birthday gift to myself and I had a wonderful day. To anyone who is thinking of choosing this experience, I recommend it highly and suggest you as for Mark as your guide.
Dear Guest, Thank you for the 5* review! We’re so delighted to hear that you chose to celebrate your birthday with us! It’s an honour to be a part of this important day, and we hope your experience here made it extra special. We wish you many more years of happiness and look forward to seeing you again soon. Best wishes Evan Evans Team
