    Great chance to see other cities without a car or many trains

    Adam_A, Jul 2025
    Saw lots of great sites, with a good combination of guided walking tour and free time to explore the cities. Guide was knowledgeable and friendly and managed the bus load of different people from different countries. Driver did a great job on the long drives; definitely a full day almost 12 hours long!

    Wonderful trip

    It was a truly wonderful trip. Jerry was an absolutely brilliant guide — full of good humour and incredibly easy and pleasant to talk to. The places my friends and I visited were simply breathtaking. We also had a fantastic driver who made the journey even more enjoyable. I’m especially grateful to the customer support team for their quick and friendly help when we couldn’t find the bus in the morning. Thank you so much for making this day so special

    Lack of control

    Martha_S, May 2024
    Very big group. The tour guide was struggling to maintain control. Time lost waiting for people arriving late and counting every time that we returned to the bus. After all delays... return to Brighton was also very late

    Gerry our tour guide is...

    Greenwich and Cambridge Don’t Disappoint

    Kristin_M, May 2023
    Departing from Brighton in a comfortable coach was an easy start to the day. Greenwich was a wonderful to see and learn so important world history. I did venture off and do two tours (extra cost) visiting the Royal Observatory to actually stand on the meridian line and see historic time pieces. I also stopped by the Painted Hall which I highly recommend. I didn’t feel overly rushed. Next onto Cambridge. What a Harry Potter like area. I added two excursions here as well and recommend both: Punting on the Cam River and visited Kings College Chapel. Wonderful day only improved by our tour guide Gerry who was super knowledgeable and friendly.
