Immersive Downton - Barry provided us with a door to door, complete Downton experience. From our pickup he pointed out a few local sites of interest. After that, we experienced a wonderful tour of sites filmed in the village. We had booked a tour of the Highclere castle and ended up with the retired head guide. What a treat. Barry is such a personality

So much more than I expected. - Barry took such good care of me. I walk slow and sometimes on rough surfaces have an issue with balance. He was such a gentleman making sure I was alright. He was very knowledgeable of all things Downton. He took me to see sites I expected but also sites I had forgotten about from the show (Blue Swan Inn). I feel I actually got more than I was expecting.

Excellent Highclere Castle Experience - We went to Highclere Castle and the surrounding villages. It was amazing. What added to the tour as much as anything was our guide - Barry! He was spectacular! The information he shared with us on the way back, then toured us through the villages and the patience he extended throughout was unbelievable! We would highly recommend Barry for this tour as well as any tour he is available for. He is knowledgeable, funny and extremely personable! Next time we are in London, we plan to schedule his tours!

Wonderful Downton Experience - We booked this full day Downton Abbey Tour so that my wife could experience the various sites used to film Downton Abbey. Our tour operator, Barry, communicated with us immediately upon booking the tour and provided valuable information that helped us plan our adventure. On the day of the tour, Barry met us at our hotel at the appointed time and described what we'd doing for our full day tour. Barry continued to provide great information on the ride from London to Highclere Castle. Once there, he assured our entrance to the grounds and waited on-site for 2.5 hours while we took the Highclere Castle tour. At the conclusion of our Highclere experience we travelled to 3 other villages in the Cotswald area that were used to film Downton Abbey. Barry explained how the sites were used and took multiple photographs of us during the trip, which he shared at the conclusion of the tour. If you're a Downton Abbey fan and want to take a tour of the sites used for filming, you should definitely book a tour with Barry. He's punctual, professional, and knowledgeable, all valuable qualities in a tour operator.
