Excellent Tour of Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, and Oxford University

I had a wonderful tour of "Windsor Castle, Stonehenge and Oxford University" with my tour guide, Peter R. Peter was knowledgeable about the different sites and he was good at keeping our group on a timely schedule. Our driver, Jack, was excellent and he ensured our safety during our travels. I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends and family.

The coach we rode in was excellent. Very clean and comfortable. We had a very good driver who got us there safely and was good at driving in lots of traffic. Our tour guide so knowledgeable about the history of England and all of the places we visited. She really made the tour great by sharing all of her vast knowledge about the places we went. You can tell she really loves her job. We enjoyed the tour immensely but wished we had more time at Windsor Castle and Oxford.

Unfortunately, I did not catch the driver's name. He was on time for pickup. We arrived at Windsor Castle before it opened. We had enough time to tour, get back to van and then get to ship. We arrived 15 minutes before our scheduled check in time. All in all, it was worth it and would do it again except for Windsor Castle. We would want a different tour.

It was a wonderful experience being Stonehenge, the Roman bath and Windsor Castle in one day! It was a little chaotic, but so much fun. Our guide.Mannon and our driver Keith were amazing and the best. There are several other tours, but our guide was able to successfully get us through the crazy day so you were able to see as much as possible and the best part is she told us how to make sure we see the change of the guard ceremony at the Windsor Castle! That was the highlight of our tour!

High difficulty in walking

Definitely need to be aware of the fact when you get to Windsor Castle, it’s a long walk to get in and it’s all uphill so if you have any walking challenges, you’re gonna struggle to do this excursion. We had several women that ended up sitting on a bench and buying lunch because they couldn’t get up there. No help was offered.

Overall experience was very good. However, outside waiting in line to enter Windsor Castle it was very difficult to hear what the tour guide was saying due to frequent planes flying overhead and other people talking behind us that were not part of our tour group. Perhaps headsets could be used.

Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, and Oxford Day Trip from London

Helen_C, Aug 2026

Great to visit three places in one day

Godfrey the guide and Michelangelo the driver were a great team, taking us to Oxford, Stonehenge and Windsor Castle all in a day. Godfrey had amusing insights and fun facts at each location, and kept us on a timely, packed schedule. The tour is a good value, with each location an hour to an hour & half drive in between. Each place merits a longer return visit but good intro. Helpful hint: check to see if Windsor Castle is open to the public on your chosen day of the week.
