The Premier Classic London: Private 4-Hour Tour in a Black Cab

Albert_S, May 2026

The four hour private...

The four hour private tour was a great experience. Having the tour guide's undivided attention added very much to the total enjoyment. Craig, our guide, was excellent. Professional and patient, his knowledge of London and its history was informative and entertaining.

Stonehenge and Bath Tour from London

Jaclyn_S, May 2026

Great day trip

We had the best tour guide. I cannot remember his name since I am writing this after we’ve gotten home but I feel like it was Mike. He was hilarious. Sang a hype up song about Stonehenge and had an AI song about the baby castle, not to be confused with a castle for babies. He kept the whole tour interesting and fun. 10/10 would recommend maybe Mike. We were left to our own devices for both Stonehenge and Bath, which suited us well. Time spent at both locations was also perfect. Took the shuttle to Stonehenge both ways and it left enough time to wander around and also to browse the gift shop and get a quick snack at the cafe. Then in Bath, we walked around and popped into shops and got a proper lunch before our timed entry to the Roman Baths, which were really cool.

Great opportunity to see 3 bucketlist sites!!

While an aggressive day of sightseeing, our tour guide, Simon with Evan Evans tour group was knowledgeable, a great storyteller and kept the day organized and moved us with excellent highlights and tips! Our bus was comfortable and modern, and our driver Victor was especially excellent. Easy way to get a taste of these three sites from London!

Scenic White Cliffs & Dover Trails

The scenic hike was truly amazing The red trail was the way to go. There was enough time to admire the scenery and we got a chance to view the scenery from the top of the cliff as well as from the beach. The city tour of Canterbury, with outstanding church, little shops, eating places, tea shop and garden experience was very nice.

Emma, Amazing Tour Guide!

The night tour was fantastic! Emma was amazing. She was fun, funny, knowledgable and made you feel like a friend was showing you around London! We especially loved all the fun and historical facts, giving the dates for context! Her mom would be so proud of her! She should be nominated as the face of tourism so she could one day attend The Buckingham Palace Garden Tea Party!

Harry Potter Warner Bros. Studio Tour with Transport from London

If you’re interested in...

If you’re interested in the stories behind everything on display, you can read the descriptions on the boards and screens throughout the studio. However, it gets crowded and sometimes you just don't want to read it all so it’s definitely worth taking the audio guide at the entrance. Just to note, this isn’t a guided tour, it includes transport to the studio and entry tickets, so the audio guide really helps bring everything to life. Also, we had a great driver, she was funny and made the ride even more enjoyable.

Perfect first day (or any...

Perfect first day (or any day) tour of London! Chris was an amazing guide! We had two kids, 9 & 11 years old, and they LOVED this tour! Perfect pace throughout tour, a good mix of interesting information about the sites with fun, a quick stop for ice cream, and catching all the angles of London from back alley streets to along the Thames. It was truly a delightful day. Highly recommend with tweens. This tour kept the kids active and engaged for HOURS!! Thanks to Chris and our amazing group for a great day!
