    This was the most incredible tour my partner and I could’ve chosen. I’m a huge Downton fan and he’s not, but this had the perfect blend of great history as well has facts about the show. Our guide Frank could not have been more knowledgeable and all around a great guide. He truly made the experience as wonderful as it was. If you’re visiting London for the first time or even if you’ve never been to the castle, it’s absolutely lovely.

    Our guide Frank was very knowledgeable and charming. Enjoyed every minute even in the pouring rain he made sure we knew where to go and gave details so our visit to Oxford, Bampton and Highclere Castle were great!

  5. Kenneth_B

    Very prompt and departure times. Guide was well organized. His narration was scripted which is ok but there was no conversation outside the script.
    Recommend an earlier start time by at least 30 minutes. By the time we arrived, walked to the entrance, went through security we missed the 11 AM changing of the guard ceremony. That should be part of the excursion, right? Otherwise all was good.
    Windsor Castle is a must see.

  6. Kim_S

    Beautiful grounds. Knowledgeable staff. Allow enough time to explore all the gardens. 2 hours time was too short.

    Andrew was a wonderful tour guide. He was a wealth of information and provided individual attention to each guest. We had a long day of touring and he made it pass quickly.

    Peter the tour guide was absolutely incredible, hilarious and super informative, brought everyone out of their shells. It was a great mix of history tied to the plot of the show. Highclere Castle- I mean, talk about staggering beauty!! 10/10 recommend.

    Our driver (Carlos) and guide (Peter) were excellent. We enjoyed stories and information about history, our environs and Downton Abbey. With three stops it is important to be timely to be courteous to your fellow passengers. We highly recommend this tour.

    Our guide was amazing! His depth of knowledge of the crown and its history was unparalleled. And a bonus— he had great knowledge of the Downton Abbey series as well. All coupled with a fantastic sense of humor

    I did like
    the fact that our guide was very personable and he did point out things that were unique. Wish we had more time at Highclere castle it’s so beautiful and the gardens
    that we had
    time to see were amazing.

  16. Jennifer_L

    The entire tour was awesome. Now – when I watch Downton Abbey – I can say “I walked down that staircase.” So fun to walk the grounds, see the gardens and walk throughout the castle. Highly recommended tour !!!

  17. Kim_H

    Loved every minute. The guide Tom was fantastic. He was so knowledgeable but not boring. It was pricey but worth every penny..

  18. Charles_L

    Bus broke down before leaving Station. Replacement bus broke down on way to coach station. We finally left station two and a half hours later. Skipped stop on way to Oxford, and had an hour and a half to explore Oxford and eat lunch. Nice visit to Highclere, but skipped Bamford due to time constraints. Got 30% refunded.

  19. Majbritt_C

    We were 3 hours late. Not offered any coffee or anything in the waiting time. We had only 1 1/2 hour in Oxford and no time in Bampton at all.
    I wrote to you yesterday and I would very much like to hear from you regarding the refund we were promised.

  20. Linda_S

    Touring Highclere Castle was definitely worth the trip
    The problem was with the tour company having 2 buses break down we were delayed by 2 1/2 hrs and had to miss 2 stops
    They finally got us a bus and did offer a 30% discount which is why I gave it 3 stars instead of 1

  21. Mary_W

    The first bus we got on had a leak so they told us to get off and wait for the replacement bus only to have that bus break down also, so when the third bus finally got there 2 hours went by so that meant they had to make up time by passing up part of the tour but I do have to say that while we were waiting on that 3rd bus, the tour guide told us to email and request 30% discount for trip and I have to say by the end of the day I had received a confirmation that I would be getting a 30% refund. I was very pleased on how they handled everything and the tour turned out to be very good.
