Windsor Castle Admission Ticket

Karen_A, May 2026

A Regal Highlight just outside London!

A must see when visiting London. Allow 2 - 3 hours to walk around and audio is essential for prime information. Be prepared to queue for the dolls house as numbers are limited at a time but worth every minute you wait! State apartments are stunning and steeped in history and St Georges Hall is incredible. Plenty of opportunities to sit down if needed (I went with my 83 year old mother) and well informed staff. We were fortunate to attend the Mattins Service on the Sunday morning with Scouting family and the chapel is stunning. There are drinks and snack carts / kiosks within the walls and shops with plenty of gift ideas. All in all, well worth every penny. Three important things to note: 1. photography is not permitted in many of the rooms. 2. There is limited to no wifi connection at the castle so if you pre book tickets, print them out or screen shot the tickets. 3. Check opening times of the chapel as they close the doors to tourists before any service (closed at 4pm on the Saturday we visited).

Wonderful tour

This is a great way to depart the cruise ship with a wonderful tour and they make sure you get to your hotel in London. I highly recommend this tour! The price was very reasonable and you had ample time at locations included. I do wish we had just a bit longer in Salisbury. Very enjoyable tour guide and driver!

Oxford University Walking Tour With University Alumni Guide

Carol_H, Mar 2026

Oxford College History Tour

The majority of the tour is outdoors so dress appropriately. We had glorious sun for ours which made a big difference. Our guide, Elena, was brilliant, very knowledgeable about the history and architecture of the buildings. She was willing to answer any questions and gave lots of interesting extra details. I would recommend this tour and the guide we had. It was easy to book online but it would be useful to know that you need a wristband to join the tour group.

A Truly Outstanding Oxford Walking Tour

We had an outstanding three-hour walking tour of Oxford University with Riccardo. He recently completed his PhD in medieval history, and both his academic expertise and his experience as an Oxford student brought incredible depth and authenticity to the tour. His knowledge of the university’s medieval foundations, traditions, and evolution was fascinating. He didn’t just share facts — he provided context, perspective, and stories that made the history feel alive and relevant. We learned so much, and the three hours flew by. Riccardo was engaging, articulate, and clearly passionate about his subject. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a meaningful and memorable introduction to Oxford.

Southampton to London via Cotswold Villages, Oxford & Pub Lunch

nanchichou, Oct 2025

A very time efficient way to tour interesting places on the way from Southampton back to London

This small-group tour by minibus was very efficient and comfortable — a great way to see more in a limited time. I only wish we could have spent a few extra minutes at each stop, though it’s understandable that some travelers needed to reach Heathrow by a specific time. Our guide, Marek, was outstanding — clearly well-prepared and very knowledgeable. He shared interesting insights throughout the journey and even sent us photos from the trip afterward, which was such a thoughtful touch. Our driver, Haleskey, was excellent as well — attentive, professional, and always making sure everyone was comfortable and safe. Overall, a well-organized, enjoyable, and memorable experience. Highly recommended!

Oxford Sightseeing River Cruise Along The University Regatta Course

Lynn_B, Oct 2025

The Head of the River

Our guide had lots of interesting stories and personal experiences on the rivers in and around Oxford which made it both informative & entertaining. (Forgot his name: 2:15 Tuesday ,9/30) . I’d recommend to anyone who likes a breeze in their hair and interested about the boating life over the history of the English countryside.

Afternoon Tea Sightseeing River Cruise in Oxford

Veronica_S, Oct 2025

Fun and relaxing cruise with delicious Afternoon Tea!

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour, catching up and experiencing a relaxing cruise along the river in Oxford. The tour guide Dexter was great, a young, charming and bright Oxfordian to lead the tour. The sandwiches and scones were exquisite, and we had plenty of tea choices.

Stonehenge Tour from Southampton to London

Karri_B, Sept 2025

Our guide was very nice...

Our guide was very nice and cheerful. The drive to Stonehenge was a bit long and the guide didn’t talk all the way. Once to Stonehenge she walked around with us and gave great insights. Our driver was great, but we felt bad; the luggage was heavy and he had to carry 2 walkers and a wheelchair onto the bus. Please be sure to tip well!

Transfer from London Heathrow to hotel in Southampton with stop in Stonehendgr

This was a perfect choice for us who flew into London Heathrow to get to Southampton to join a cruise. The stop at Stonehenge was just enough of a side trip after an overseas flight to start up our vacation. Our driver was very friendly and met us inside.
