Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & Eiffel Tower Lunch Option

Cheryldekleine, Nov 2026

Paris for a day

We had a wonderful time. I brought my daughter and two grandchildren to visit Paris for the day. It was their first time there and the focus of the tour made for an excellent first trip. Despite the news regarding the Paris protests we felt very safe as the tour guide and driver assured us that they knew where the protests were taking place and we would not enter that area. The bus tour hit all the highlights and the river cruise was enjoyable. The Eiffel Tower lunch was delicious and there was time for a visit to the Sacre Couer and some shopping. It was easy to take the Eurostar to and from Paris and the tour guide was with us both ways. I would highly recommend this tour if you are in London and want a nice day trip to Paris.

Cotswolds Small Group Tour from London

Michael_T, Nov 2026

Nice Day Trip

My group was just 15 people, so we traveled in a smaller bus which was very comfortable. There were three stops w plenty of time to visit each town. Once you exited the bus, you were on your own. ( The very nice guide, Leslie, provided direction prior to each stop.) Would have liked more of a guided tour of each stop, but that may have been difficult given the crowded conditions in each town.

Lots of driving since...

Lots of driving since these things are outside of London a ways. You will get 1-1.5hrs at each place, so you can experience it but if you want "in depth" probably not enough time to get all these done in 1 day. Just what I was expecting and wanted to see these places.

Seven Sisters & South Downs Tour with Train Tickets Included

Naomi_W, Nov 2026

The Seven Sisters and...

The Seven Sisters and South Downs were gorgeous. Our guide, Paul, was fantastic. He's friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and happy to answer questions. We stopped at a few other points of interest such as an ancient geoglyph and a little farm that served delicious homemade apple cider. We ended in Brighton, where we were given train tickets with flexible times, so you can explore the city a bit on your own before heading back to London. The bus we took between sites was comfortable, and none of them are far apart. Overall a wonderful trip.

Phil was an AMAZING...

Phil was an AMAZING GUIDE! He was teaching us from the moment the bus started moving. We learned so much about the area of SW England, the burial mounds, the facts and theories about Stonehenge and later Bath. Then we learned more on the way home. The man was a wealth of charm and knowledge. Our bus driver Lucian was very skilled. An absolute great day!!

Great tour and tour guide

We had a great time on our small group day tour. Pete was a great driver and tour guide. We had a rainy day but he still gave us great tips and ideas of what to see and do on our stops and overly the rain kept the crowds away so we got to enjoy the sites without them being crowded. Would definitely recommend this tour to others. A great change of pace from the hustle of the London sites!

White Cliffs of Dover & Historic Canterbury Day Tour from London

KathyDougherty, Oct 2026

Canterbury and Cliffs of Dover

The guide was very knowledgeable about all of the sites but also added the perfect touch of quirky humor to the day. His guidance was spot on. He even told us to look out for WWII spitfire planes which we did indeed see! He shared a history of London docks as we drove through town, something that I had heard about but he really helped us visualize the transformation. Great Day! Excellent tour guide on 17/10/26.

We had a terrific time in Stonehenge and loved Bath! Bath is a lovely town to just wander around in. The shops are wonderful and the buildings are so historical! Samuel was very thorough in making sure we knew where everything was! We had a great bus driver! She and our guide worked very well together! Both had a great personality!

Philadelphia PA meets the UK

Tom the narrator’s was knowledgeable well spoken and extremely accommodating! He had a great sense of humor. The driver Robert was equally an experienced driver- the trip was well organized and allowed for exploration without the entire group. Very relaxing for a 12 hour day. The restaurant in Lacock was an added bonus and the food was very tasty.

The tour guide Amanda and the driver Romeo are both excellent. Today's day trip experience to Stonehenge and Oxford was very good. The guide was beautiful and spoke well, and the driver drove well. Luckily, except for Stonehenge, it was sunny all day, making it easy to take good photos. If I have the chance, I will come again, but I recommend friends sign up; it is suitable for families or groups.

Stonehenge Inner Circle Private Tour from London with Bath Visit

SUSAN_V, Sep 2026

An Awesome Day….

This tour begins with a very early start to the morning ,was up at 3.30am to be ready to arrive by 5.30am at the meeting point for the tour (depending on travel times to get there) .As it is an early start we found out they will organise Breakfast at your stop in Lacock and you will be given options that you can choose before you arrive at destination about 10.00am .My husband and I did one better and asked our hotel to prepare a little breakfast takeaway bag for us (which they were more than happy to do ) Be prepared when going out to StoneHenge (that early in morning ) for it to be very cold and also light rain (so waterproof coat/jacket is a must ) as you will be doing a lot of walking make sure you have comfortable shoes(sneakers best with good tread on soles) Our tour guide James were very knowledgeable and kept us entertained and our driver Miguel his experience driving through the very narrow streets in the Cotswolds showed as it was rather hairy in some spots with other driver's.
