Robert was truly one of the nicest guides and drivers I’ve ever met. From the moment we started our journey, he made us feel welcomed and completely at ease. He was incredibly thoughtful, especially with my older parents who don’t move as well—always patient and attentive to their needs.
Although our plans were unexpectedly changed due to a traffic accident that shut down the road, Robert never rushed us or seemed flustered. He handled the situation with grace and flexibility, making the best of the day and ensuring we still had a meaningful and enjoyable experience.
I genuinely wish he could have been our guide for the entire time we were in London. He went above and beyond, and I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Robert was excellent. He came and pick us up on time. He showed us so many beautiful places. Everything went smooth. Would highly recommend.
Robert picked us up at the cruise terminal and spent the day taking us to Brockenhurst where we were able to explore the village and visit the parish church where my ancestors were from. This was a happy tour for me to discover ancestral roots. Robert had researched the history of the area and knowing I was a Jane Austen fan, he also took us to the village where she lived. Unfortunately her home was closed, but we were able to tour her brother’s estate home and the parish church where her mother and sister are buried. We then travelled to Heathrow airport and he dropped us at our hotel. If you have needs for an “off the beaten path” tour, Robert is a fabulous option. One hundred percent recommend!
Absolutely the best travel and tour experience we have ever had. Robert is amazingly knowledgeable, incredibly personable, and was game for the challenge of us wanting to see and experience something other than tourist sites (although he did take us to some incredible options of those as well). The day simply flew, and there was always “just one more thing” to see. We would absolutely book with him again.
Robert was absolutely fantastic- professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly accommodating throughout the entire day.
He made the journey so much more than just a transfer by sharing fascinating history, local insights, and ensuring we were comfortable every step of the way. Traveling with two children can sometimes be challenging, but he was patient, kind, and made the experience enjoyable for the whole family.
He went above and beyond to make our day memorable. If you’re looking for a seamless transfer combined with an exceptional tour, I couldn’t recommend him more highly. Thank you for such an amazing experience!
Thank you to Robert for such a great day on our last day in England!! We didn’t have concrete plans but he helped us explore places we didn’t even know about and we had a wonderful time. It was the perfect end to our trip!
It was like spending the day with a family member. Kind, knowledgeable and accomodating. A great choice!!
Thank you so much, Robert, for
such a fun & unforgettable
day! Your kindness, energy,
& attention to detail
made our tour so
special. Thank you again for an amazing
time we will never forget!
This has to be one of the best tours hands down. A tailored experience to our group, Robert does NOT disappoint.
From the prompt pick up at the port, to the vast amount of knowledge provided by Robert and destinations that we were able to visit, this was a time to be remembered. Hidden gems in the countryside to walking Abby Road, there was a
Little bit of everything. Last day on the vacation was one of the best! 10/10 would recommend. If I could give more stars I would.
Thank you Robert for this unforgettable experience. We will be back :)
Our driver/guide Robert Hobson was fantastic - very friendly and knowledgeable and had many great suggestions. Would hig
There aren’t sufficient words to describe how amazing this entire experience was with Robert as our tour guide and host to his country. This entire day was completely bespoke, 100% meant for the things we enjoy and wanted to experience in the English countryside. Everything is in bloom mid April, and the countryside was completely alive with wildflowers. We went to a wonderful pub in Salisbury that was welcoming with warm hosts and great food. We asked for him to show us what he loves about England, and it struck us in a way I don’t think either of us expected. This day will live in my memory forever. Thank you Robert, your warmth, knowledge, patience, and generosity was truly appreciated!
I can’t say enough good things about this day with Robert - he’s smart - caring and keen to make sure we got to see what we wanted and surprised us with a few things we didn’t know we wanted to see and now are so thankful we got to see -we can’t recommend him enough - a perfect way to spend a day in when you’ve only got a short time and want to maximize your experience - Robert was delightful and we will see him again next time we are here!
Robert was an absolute delight and this was one of the top days of my recent trip! I had Salisbury Cathedral and Stonehenge on my list to visit on my way from Southampton to London - told him I’m a history buff and take me anywhere else of interest and oh my did he deliver! We took small, little known roads to quaint, overlooked churches & villages and he was able to relate the history and context of the area. I absolutely recommend!!
Robert was very accommodating, easy going and knowledgeable as he took us on a tailored off the beaten path tour/transfer from Southampton. We explored quaint villages, Stonehenge, and Avebury as we made our way to Heathrow. Highly recommend Robert...one of the best tours we've had!
Robert did an amazing job driving us around the countryside! He showed us parts of London we couldn’t have seen with other excursions! Highly recommend!!
Robert was amazing. We told him we like to see unique things and he came through in spades. He has great knowledge and stories and a beautiful comfortable SUV to travel in.
This was our second time using Robert’s services and he was amazing. Robert promptly picked us up at the Southampton cruise terminal and a spent the next 11 hours showing us the sites/locations we wanted to see. The logistics of it all was pre coordinated and Robert planned the proper order to visit every where we wanted. Robert did just drive us but was our guide for all the sites. He is very knowledgeable and a really nice, trustworthy person. Robert dropped us off at our hotel in London and it was like saying goodbye to an old friend. We loved our time with Robert and highly recommend his services. We will definitely use Robert’s services again.
Robert was a great, informed, and imaginative guide. We say Doyle’s gravesite, the home of the Magna Carta, Stone Henge, a typical local pub lunch, and Victoria Castle, all on the way from Southampton to our hotel in London. Wonderful day!
To preface - our trip consisted of a weeklong cruise throughout Northern Europe (Denmark, Netherlands, Norway, etc.), followed by sightseeing throughout all of London for five days.
Out of our entire two week long trip, with the cruise and sightseeing, Robert was a true highlight. He took us around to wherever we wanted the entire day, and overall seemed very invested in our experience; like a close, long-lost friend. He has a heart of gold and an overall love for life, people, experiences, and kindness. One of the things that made him stand out was that he got out of the car and ate lunch with us, whereas during past tours, the driver would sit in the car on his/her phone. He was great at bringing us to lesser-known and not crowded locations as well as the more crowded destinations we wanted to visit (i.e Stonehenge and Windsor Castle). He was so invested and kind to us, it felt like he was a genuine friend who wanted to come along for the ride with us. He was constantly showing us good places to take pictures, especially at Stonehenge where he showed us the best picture spot, and was giving us in-depth, but concise descriptions and history on all of the places we visited. He is extremely knowledgeable about anything and everything we talked to him about, including current events, the sites and places he was showing us, the history of the places, and overall general knowledge about many things in the world. He shared his extensive knowledge with us about everything from the current events and experiences happening in London (Wimbledon, Covent Garden, ABBA Voyage, etc.) to the detailed but concise description of the history of Stonehenge. He clearly has an overall passion and love for the work he does. He catered to and found restaurants that support Celiac Disease individuals (like myself) and gladly gave us descriptions of all of the foods we didn’t know about (i.e whitebait). He didn’t drag things out and try to scam us, instead, he genuinely tried to fit everything into our trip that he could. He was extremely active and an overall go-getter, from taking us through the little museum at Stonehenge to sneaking us quickly and respectfully through a cathedral.
To summarize, the most memorable part of your trip won’t even be the sites you saw, but the most kind, caring, helpful, happy, and friendly man you will ever meet in your life. Thank you SOOOOO much Robert!! We loved our time with you :)

Excellent communication , many choices as to what we wanted to see on the way to the airport . Very knowledgeable about the area and everything we saw. Highly recommend Robert and this tour/ airport transfer !!
Our driver was pleasant, informative, and sensitive to our needs and interests. I would highly recommend him

We had a wonderful time with Robert. I would highly recommend him for a fantastic day trip. He was great company and very knowledgeable.
Robert was wonderful. We had a lovely trip through Windsor and into London. We had time to stop and see the castle. Very memorable experience. Thanks Robert! Give us a call if you’re ever in KY.
Robert was our driver from Southampton port London to our London hotel. He showed us amazing sights on the way and was full of knowledge. Once I booked, I was able to reach out to him and he contacted me immediately. Any doubts I had about booking this service were put to rest! I would definitely recommend! Robert made sure we had a comfortable transfer and an amazing sightseeing adventure! He was also right outside our cruise terminal exit waiting for us upon arrival.
Robert picked us up at the Princess cruise port in Southhampton. He kept us informed and entertained for the whole tour. We toured New Forest and saw free range horses and cattle. We went up to Salisbury to see the church and mid evil village then on to several other small villages. All of this with a very raining day to deal with! It was a great way to spend the day waiting for our evening flight back to the U.S..
Our day with Robert was fantastic. He was waiting as planned when we disembarked the ship and we proceeded on our custom tour. First we drove to Highenden Manor - country home of Benjamin Disraeli. Extremely interesting including the WW II connection with the RAF. From there we drove to Waddesdon Manor and toured the Rothschild estate. It was a fantastic visit to a beautiful building filled with exquisite objects. Leaving Waddesdon, Robert drove us to our hotel in the heart of London.
Our entire experience was wonderful. Robert - our driver and owner of the company - was delightful. Within the first five minutes we knew we had a great arrangement. He is an extremely pleasant and outgoing gentleman with tremendous knowledge and curiosity about history and travel. We immediately felt like we were traveling with a close friend. The whole day was perfect thanks to his excellent service. We plan more extensive travel within UK in the future and will utilize Robert in our plans.
We had an excellent experience with Robert, our driver for RoadTripz company. Exceeded our expectation. Communication with Robert was fantastic as he was on time meeting us at the port and gave us options as to where to visit during our trip. Robert was very knowledgeable of the area and was able to take us to many sites in outside of London including Stonehenge, Windsor Castle, Salisbury cathedral, New Forest and other sites. He was very friendly and made us feel like we were friends rather than passengers. His Range Rover was extremely comfortable. I would recommend him and his company to all. You will not be disappointed.
Great tour of Salisbury Cathedral and Stonehenge. Our driver Robert Hodson was terrific- he shared a lot of interesting facts on the areas we traveled thru and the sites we visited. I would highly recommend!
Robert was absolutely superb! He made all of our desired sightseeing stops along the Jurassic Coast and Stonehenge and also suggested great stops in between along the way to make our tour truly awesome. His knowledge of the area and information provided were absolutely top notch. Robert's Land Rover vehicle was comfortable, clean, and felt very safe. Robert's communication from our initial reservation and during our planning stages, complete with suggestions from him as well as communication within the couple weeks prior to our reservation were perfect. Search no more! Robert is your guy! Thank you again, Robert, for making our tour great and exceeding our expectations!! -Jeff & Kristie
Robert our tour guide took us around Windsor from the cruise port and took unto the airport after the tour. He was professional and answered our questions. He was great to show us as much as he could in the very little time we had.
