Wonderful tour. Very knowledgeable guide, charming and witty. Energetic, helpful, courteous to the guest including offering alternative for any struggles such as steps or need of restrooms.
Thank you kindly!!! Come back anytime
We had Lily as a guide and it was a quick easy meet up and wonderful experience. She was very engaging and friendly and has such a passion for this city. We found ourselves really rooting for it and its future. She gave us so much great information and insights we would have never had walking around looking at the sites alone.
It was my pleasure spending time with you guys! Come back anytime
We had absolutely no idea there was so much interesting history to discover in Southampton but Leslie brought it to life! Excellent pace, answered all of our questions (even the uncommon!) and showed us her town with great enthusiasm and knowledge. Highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your kindness
An amazing private tour with our very knowledgeable and friendly guide, Lillian! She gave us an in-depth understanding of Southampton, made us feel genuinely welcome, and provided fascinating historical context about her native city. As frequent cruisers—we take about 10 voyages a year—this tour gave us a profound appreciation for the sacrifices cruise ship crews make for their families to ensure our stays are comfortable. Lillian's behind-the-scenes explanation of the local families affected by the Titanic made us respect and appreciate crew members even more. Highly recommended if it is your first time in Southampton. Be sure to book it before you board your ship!"
Thank you for your kind words it was great having you with us and we hope to see you again in the future!
This tour proved to be an excellent one learning the history, culture and architecture of many locations, people and cultures of Southampton. Georgia, our guide, provided interesting, insightful and educational information that piqued questions from each of us. She aptly provided a good answer or simply commented, “That’s a very good question.” And we would all laugh.
Thank you so much for your time and kindness
They take your money and don't bother to show up Pick another vendor or save your money . Its very unpleasant
Kimberley you didn't turn up for your tour, you arrived 30 minutes late despite abundant communication which you received well in advance as photographic evidence to customer services proved, plus all your messages. We offered you a reschedule that didn't suit you, and we offered many other alternatives to deal with this. You made a mistake and you are punishing us when you didn't actually experience our tour and when we spent several hours trying to fix your mistake
The tour guide, Georgia, was excellent. She was very knowledgeable and I learned a lot of history. I would recommend this tour to everyone. Thank you.
Thank you so much for spending some time with us!
Although we were not expecting someone as young as Georgia to be our guide, she was a fount of knowledge. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her.
We are so glad that you had a good time with us! Thank you
We had our tour with 'Thomas' who was great and really knowledgeable, despite growing up around Southampton, there was so much of my own city I had overlooked, really beautiful, and had a great guide.
Thank you so much for your kind words
amazing tour! great mix of medieval and modern history, with an emphasis on Southampton's role as a major historical port. Our guide, Thomas, was very knowledgeable and fun!
We are so thankful for your review!
