Cameron and Sorin are the best! Kept us informed and entertained, while keeping everything on time. We enjoyed ourselves and learned many things!
Did the Oxford and Windsor tour with tour guide Cameron and driver Sorin. Loved the fact that Cameron was very adaptive and made sure that we had the best experience. He switched the order around to make sure we would make the most of our time. We had time to visit everything while avoiding the crowd rushes and the long lines which saved time and let us see more. Also loved the fact that the tour which he created was very well paced, gave us the time to explore everything without feeling rushed. It shows his attention to detail and his empathetic side to foresee our needs. He also made the drive fly by with his interesting facts, jokes and anecdotes. Also appreciated his recommendations for what to see, do and eat. Loved the tour, the best one I’ve been on. Would love to have him again. Also shoutout to Sorin for making the drive so smooth and making it possible. Finally Evan Evans is an amazing company, spacious and comfortable coach with wifi on board.

Cameron was great he made a 9 hour tour go by very quickly. He gave us a lot of English history and stories and how we got several English sayings. He was very entertaining! The driver , Adnan was a very good driver. I felt very comfortable with the transportation as he maneuvered the London traffic during rush hour.
