Perfect Day trip from London

We really enjoyed our visit to the Seven Sisters and South Downs tour. Our guide Kevin met us at London Bridge train station as scheduled and rode the train with us to our next guide, Paul who took us on a lorrie ride through South downs and Beachy head to the Seven sisters. We had a beautiful day with many great views of the Seven sisters and Tall Man carving. Paul has a vast knowledge of the areas we visited. I would definitely book this tour or another with Viator- It was effortless and relaxing. Can’t wait to come back to the UK.

Marina provided an excellent, fun, and informative experience during our tour of Westminster, Parliament Square, the London Tower, and other sites. She answered our many questions and kept the tour enjoyable for the kids, even using a deck of cards to help teach the curious history of royalty. We highly recommend Marina for others who want to learn about British history from a kind, patient, and knowledgeable guide.

Great London Tour!

Mark was great! He certainly has a passion for the history of London. I liked this tour since I got to see all of the main spots of London without needing to use Google Maps. There isn’t really time to take a full lunch, so definitely plan accordingly (I just ate a full breakfast and I was fine until 3pm, when the tour ends). I’d recommend adding the Tower of London addition to your ticket. You’ll be able to make it a full day and see a great piece of history as well!

Hampton Court Palace private tour

This was an absolutely amazing experience for someone like me who is obsessed with the Tudor dynasty. Simon was a great guide and I've never been in a Range Rover before. The highlight was getting to sit where Henry and whichever queen he was with at the time sat. Expensive but worth it.
