Reviews of England Family Tours
- 2-Day Windsor, Stonehenge, Bath & Oxford Small-Group Tour from London
Great tour! Bed and breakfast was also fabulous booked by the tour company.
- London Explorer (8 Days) (6 destinations)
This was my first tour, and I enjoyed every second of it. The itinerary was excellent, saw everything that I had hoped to see, and there was plenty of free time to explore on my own. It was wonderful to have the Oyster card [for bus and tube]. The hotel was very nice, newly renovated, and located right across from Hyde Park, wonderful for walks in the early morning or evening. Our tour director, Ellie, was extremely organized, and was excellent at providing background and history as we drove through the city, and at the venues. She was also very helpful in providing ideas for places to explore on our free time, and would help with any questions we had. If people needed directions for places they wanted to see on their own, she would print them out. The tour guides [specialists] at some of the venues were also excellent, as was our bus driver, Dave. I left feeling like I had really done more than I would have thought possible in 8 days! London is a lovely city, tourist-friendly, and rich in culture and history. I would love to go again!
- British Royale (Small Groups, End London, 11 Days)
The British Royale tour far exceeded our expectations! VIP Experiences were memorable and enjoyable. Our Tour Concierge, Ebony, was very well organized and shared an unlimited wealth of knowledge on just about everything. Our tour group had only 11 people which was absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who has an interest in learning and experiencing more about the UK!
