Julie it was perfect, so nice and very smart!! Love it!!
Amazing experience and our guide Julie was very knowledgeable and interesting.
Had the most mazing experience, Way surpassed my expectations, Visiting Hampton Court Palace with guide Geraint Thomason was far more enjoyable for the informative humourous and relaxed tour. The detailed information combined with the clear but light hearted delivery was the perfect combination . The palace is so large and there is so much to see we would have missed so much of interest. A 5 star review.
Great tour with an amazing tour guide who is incredibly knowledgeable. The tour highlighted the most interesting aspects of history without being swamped with too much information. It was also slightly comedic and resulted in a great experience! It included secret doors, funny toilets, and other pieces of history that only a true enthusiast would know. Cannot recommend more!!
We had a two hour, guided small group visit. Theresa was a very informative guide who cared about our individual interests. We got a good sample of the house and grounds, and the ticket allowed us to return on our own. The tea was excellent and beautifully situated.
Delightful, thorough, informative and fun tour of Hampton Court Palace. Julie was the perfect guide.
Guide was OK but not superb... the tea was a waste of time
We are sorry you did not enjoy it. Thank you so for taking the time to leave a review
Tom was fantastic. Knowledgeable, complete, friendly and professional. I would highly recommend him as a guide. He made the history come alive and knew all about the subject. A real valued addition to our visit.
Wonderful to be guided around by Theresa. So much knowledge and a lovely lady. Had a very nice time.
We had a lovely time. Tom was amazing and very helpful. Would recommend to anybody wanting to see Hampton court!
