Visit to Buckingham palace, bath, and stonehedge - Pablo was great guide made the tours very easy and comfortable, also very good because you were aloud to explore the palace and castle without a guide and just a audio guide

Great royal experience - We were a group of four and experienced a great tour. Our guide was excellent and was knowledgeable. The Buckingham Palace tour was worthwhile, we walked through on our own with an audio guide. The Palace is stately and the grounds are stunning! We had a short break in between to meet back up with the group to catch the coach to take us to Windsor Castle. The village was lovely and it was a shame we didn’t get to spend more time there. The castle did not disappoint. Make sure you visit St George’s chapel as suggested before heading up to the castle.

Long Day - This tour is not for the faint of heart. It is a LONG day. We walked over 16k steps that day. The castles are beautiful but the time at Windsor was not enough to get through all the audio tour. Too much time between the end of Buckingham and the start of the Windsor tour. It is quite a walk leaving Buckingham and getting to the Evan Evan’s office. The bus should have been at the exit to pick us up.

Buckingham Palace & Windsor Castle tour - Ruth our tour guide and Yassim our driver were wonderful. Our our bus ride to Windsor Ruth gave us a mini tour telling us about things along the way. The only negative we were a bit rushed trying to complete the Windsor audio tour. Perhaps a little more time needs to allocated to this portion of the trip and a little less to the Buckingham Palace portion or less time allocated between the 2 tours so people are not rushed on the Windsor portion

Excellent tour but a little pricey for what we got. - The tour of Buckingham Palace was self guided which as okay but we really enjoyed the tour of Windsor Castle and the town of Windsor. I highly recommend it. The only concern was the fact that our tour guide left us and we had to make our way to the bus which unfortunately we were a bit lost until we found our way. Oh well, at least we got more steps in.

Good tour leader. - Tour leader Deborah was very good. Traffic was extreme and took far too long both ways, especially return.

Disappointed - The guide was unintelligible. Poor bus sound system Sorry that we paid for your service as the guide couldn’t go into the facilities. We could have reserved directly with Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle.
