Wonderful tour! Steve did an amazing job,his knowledge is quite impressive. Our driver made us feel very safe throughout the journey.
Our tour guide, Steve was top notch, as was our driver Florian! The feature destination and experience did not disappoint. The additional stops on the way in Avebury and Lacock were unexpectedly wonderful, as well. Steve’s recounting the history of each and every sight along the way truly enhanced our adventure. Highly recommended.
Nicholas our guide and Miguel our driver were delightful. Lots of good information and good humor. We had a terrific day, and my whole family (mother, husband, four kids, and I) felt well cared for.
Nicholas and Miguel were a dynamic duo! Miguel was hilarious behind the wheel and brought us to/from London/Stonehenge safely and efficiently!! Nicholas was so kind, welcoming and beyond knowledgeable. Grateful to have had them for our tour!
Delightful tour guide and wonderful driver. The whole experience was top notch. I highly recommend team Steven and Florian. Give those men a raise!
Steve was a great guide—-so helpful and full of information. We left on time from each stop. He even double checked the roster to make sure we had everyone when it seemed we were missing one. Great experience! Lovely time together. So much learned on the ride out to Stonehenge.
Our family booked the summer Solstice Stonehenge tour, S20, during our visit to London. We couldn’t be happier with the experience. The driver, Flourin, safely navigated the narrow roads of the English countryside and we arrived at Stonehenge before most people, providing an experience like none other, especially on the Solstice. Our tour guide, Steve, was knowledgeable with so many aspects of our tour. He provided an excellent history of Stonehenge along our ride. We also stopped in Avbury to walk along the ancient stones there and had a lovely lunch in Lacock, a wonderful small town to visit. The tour was very well organized from the time we got in the bus, especially feeding 75 people on 30 minutes at The George Inn. I highly recommend this tour and commend Steve and Flourin on a great job for providing a wonderful experience for our family.
Friendly, informative guide, with the right amount of detail for the stops along the way. Great logistics, which made the day great.
Steve is a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable and made sure we were all safe and had a good time
Six of us did the Summer Solstice sunset tour. The pick-up and drop-off were simple, the guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and funny. A great trip!
