Nicholas and Moses were wonderful companions for our tour. We were first ones to get into Windsor castles and had plenty of time to explore Stonehenge. Bath was our last stop we were exhausted but it was a full day with lots of sightseeing and knowledge gained.
We were very disappointed with the amount of time allocated to each destination on this tour. At **Stonehenge, the Roman Baths in Bath, and Windsor Castle**, the time provided was far too short to properly explore and enjoy these wonderful places. We joined this tour specifically to experience these iconic attractions, take photographs and videos, learn about their history, and spend some quality time enjoying the experience together. Unfortunately, the schedule felt extremely rushed, making it difficult to explore the sites properly or enjoy them at a comfortable pace. We would also like to understand why the tour had to return so early. Rather than rushing through each attraction and leaving with very limited time to experience them, it would have been much better to allow additional time at each location, even if that meant returning home a little later. Overall, the destinations were excellent, but the **time management and itinerary planning seriously affected our experience**. We hope the tour operator will reconsider the schedule and provide visitors with sufficient time to genuinely explore and enjoy each destination.
The tour is well organised, value for money if you are travelling alone. Nicholas, the guide is fantastic and has done a good amount of research about our visitation and his pace is just right. Don’t forget to shout out to Morse, the driver who is picking up and dropping us off safely.
nicholas our guide was fabulous even continued giving us information the enire 2 hour ride home from Bath highly reccomend him
Nicholas was an informative, friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. The best! Moses was an excellent driver!!!
This tour is great! It is worth the time and money. Big thank you to our tour guide Nicholas and driver Moses!
Nicholas was the guide and Moses was the driver. The tour ran very smoothly, inspite of the scorching hot. Nicholas is a very knowledgeable guide, and kept everybody entertained. Highly recommend it.
Toby and Robert were a marvellous pair. Very charismatic and approachable. We learned a lot about our locations and felt very comfortable exploring. Thank you
It was a wonderful experience......would highly recommend !!!!! The tour guide was probably one of the best we've ever had on a tour!!!!
Richard was lovely! 3 places is too much. Bath + Stonehenge is sufficient. Windsor can be its own thing. Not enough time to tour the cities, eat, or appreciate the culture/moment…
