Our tour guide’s name was Cameron. He did the best job a tourist could possibly ask for. He was funny, informative, and incredibly nice. He had some very interesting facts, such as how a place in Oxford relates to something in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. Overall, the bus was very nice and clean. The chairs could recline and were very soft and comfortable. Our driver, Ajay, was also very good!

I had a wonderful experience on this tour. Cameron, our guide, was entertaining and informative. Our driver, Malik, was timely and professional. I chose this tour because I wanted more time at locations rather than being rushed through the locations. I liked that each location started with a walking tour, but allowed free time to explore as well. Finding our pickup location was a breeze. This was a perfect tour for a solo travel day.

A great experience for anyone who wants to see the most famous landmarks in pleasnt atmosphere and without the rush. Two sights are really enough so you do not have to spend most of you time on a coach but really see those places. Angela will provide you with all the history details you need. Her organisational skills are excellent. Our driver Zohir drove safely and quickly. I you should take this trip at least once.
