Stonehenge, Windsor Castle and Bath with Lacock pub lunch on a guided coach tour from London, with optional castle or Stonehenge entry.
“It was a wonderful tour! Our tour guide was so knowledgeable about the history of the places we went. He also gave us good advice and great recommendations. It was a full day, but completely worth it!”
Day trip from London to Paris with Eurostar, guided coach tour, Seine cruise, and optional Eiffel Tower 3-course lunch with wine.
“we were greeted on the train by our guide Anna, she explained the days events and then when we arrived she provided an excellent tour from bus to boat on the river to lunch at the Eiffel tower. She excellently orchestrated the entry for my wife who needed special attention. The lunch was excellent. It was a very special day and we created wonderful memories of Paris thanks to Anna.”
A guided Cotswolds day trip from London with stops in Burford, Bibury, Arlington Row, and Stow-on-the-Wold, plus an optional pub lunch.
“What a wonderful experience! We had such a great day exploring the cotswolds with our guide Rowen. Rowen was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and you can easily tell that she loves her job. She also made sure that everyone knew where they were going once we got back into town, and answered any questions that we had, including recommendations. We ended up going on Remembrance Sunday, so we had a lot of cool opportunities to see things that we wouldn’t have seen otherwise. One of the towns ended up not being accessible because of road closures for the holiday, but our tour guide pivoted and took us to the Downton Abbey…”
Thames lunch cruise from Tower Pier with a 2-course meal and scenic stops for Tower Bridge, Westminster, Big Ben, and London Eye views.
“Not much to really see during the 1 1/2 hour cruise. Food was mediocre at best no choice of what to eat , everyone was served the chicken. The side of some sort of potatoes was dried out. Meal not super hot. Not a good policy to not offer options. Chicken had a mushroom sauce. No coffee was proposed with desert. However, Service was excellent. For the price I recommend do a regular boat cruise and go eat lunch.”
Hard Rock London lunch or dinner with the Diamond set menu, priority seating, and time for the Vault memorabilia museum and shop.
“Absolutely amazing experience. Well worth the money. Food was amazing and our waiter was the best we have ever had. He was so lovely and constantly checking we were ok and refilling our drinks.”
Walk Ancoats and the Northern Quarter with a local, taste six independent stops, enjoy lunch plus wine, and learn Manchester stories.
“We took the tour with Julia and had lovely time learning about Manchester, I studied here for 4 years and still learned lots of new things. We ate in places that we wouldn't have found ourselves, and really enjoyed the food. We picked up some ideas of what to try in future trips. We left full and very satisfied, would recommend.”
