Excellent experience! Paulie was a top notch tour guide and kept us on track throughout the day even with a flat tire!! We didn’t skip a beat with the flat. The company had a new coach waiting for us after the Windsor Castle tour ended. Our bus operator was also an exceptionally talented driver. We packed a lot into one day. I highly recommend this tour.

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.

Amazing day!

The Windsor Castle is amazing. Loved all the information our guide, Phil, gave to use before the tour. He was not allowed to give private tours inside but I'm sure he would've if he were authorized to. Stonehenge was on my bucket list and ai loved it too. Oxford I was not crazy about but Phil made it very interesting to me. Shout out to our driver, Laquan, who was very professional and cautious on the road.

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.

Our guide was very good, extremely knowledgeable and entertaining on the bus ride, a very accommodating as we struggled with an unexpected shutdown of the London Underground. Everyone was very helpful. Windsor Castle is amazing. We could definitely spend a whole day there or more but this was a very good introduction.
