I wish I had completed the tour earlier in my trip because that would have given me time to revisit some of the spots. In addition, other areas of interest were pointed out during the tour. I like the tour is free because I can just show up during a time that works for me rather than make a reservation and need to change / cancel it later. If you're in the city as a tourist, plans may change without notice, so having flexibiluty is really nice. Well done !

My wife and I did the Royal London Walk with Andrew. He was incredibly knowledgable about the…read morehistory of London and it's royalty. He covered over 1000 years of history over the two hour walk. We started at Trafalgar Square, through Royal London (seeing the beginning and up close changing of the guard) then to St. James Park, on to Downing Street, Big Ben and so many other great historical locations. There is no cost for the tour, and the guides work solely on tips, but there was no pressure at all to do so. We tipped 20 pounds and it was worth every penny. You can tell Andrew loves what he does, and likes meeting new people. It was so good we went back for the 6:30 pm London's Ghostly Haunts Walk, but were 7 minutes late and missed it. TIP: Get there on time!

For fans of the ITV/ PBS series Inspector Morse, Inspector Lewis, and/or Endeavour, the Inspector…read moreMorse Walking Tour (from the Oxford Official Guided Walking Tours) is a MUST!! Our guide was Heidi, and she was fabulous. Enthusiastic, clear-speaking, and a font of knowledge about the Morse-based TV shows, and their filming in Oxford. It's a 2 hour walking tour...at a brisk pace over cobbled streets....so wear your comfy walking shoes! Also, although some random facts about Oxford and the various colleges are thrown in here and there, don't expect this to be a good introductory tour to Oxford in general. (The tourist board does offer other, more general tours of Oxford though, all at very reasonable prices!) So, book yourself for the Morse tour, and I'm sure you'll be like me, and will have some marathon streaming sessions of the series when you return home!

The book, map and advice were super helpful and your selection of overnight stays were great.

I highly recommend your team!

This was rated one of the top 101 things to do in London, so it is definitely worth checking out!…read moreThe concept is hilarious, a tour where the history and facts are entirely made up and rooted in humor. As an American however, it felt that a lot of the British humor didn't quite connect. Being used to American humor, I didn't find the jokes to be hilarious. I would imagine it would be significantly funnier with a larger understanding of the culture here and appreciation for the dry British comedic style. I'd give the idea a 10/10 but the execution here seemed to be about a 6/10. Many jokes could be improved upon, and the humor was more silly than clever. The idea is much funnier than the actual jokes, so there is a lot of room for improvement on this idea. I would rate the experience as a 3 star one for Americans, but most likely a 4 star one for locals. There is a LOT of potential in this terrific idea.

I won't tell you all the things I learned and spoil it for you, but I can't keep quiet about two of them: First, students are NOT primarily lectured to as in most American universities. Instead, they have maybe one lecture a week on a topic. The rest of the week they spend discussing with a professor in their college (Oxford is comprised of 38 colleges). Is it any wonder most students leave there with knowledge firmly in their heads, rather than "I forgot. I learned it for the test and then forgot it"? Second, why is the grass in the courtyards so amazing? Because only professors are allowed to walk on it! Can you imagine what would happen if we told American students that they were not allowed to walk on the grass, but their professors were?!

Best tour EVER. If…read moreyou are into music- into London, into Camden, into rock and roll at it's finest DO THIS TOUR!!!! I would safely say it is wheelchair accessible as well. Allison is very knowledgeable and friendly. You will get to go by every venue where almost every band ever started or played. This is in my "must do" list for those who've never been to London before. Yes, along with the Tower of London and a Jack the Ripper Tour. It's that good. It suited my interests more than the museums.

However, after a brief search on Google I was dismayed at the price of these tours - approximately £40. As we were staying close to Camden (for the music of course!) I tried another search and soon found the Rock n Roll Camden Walking Tour. I couldn't believe it was only £10! We met Alison outside the Electric Ballroom which is very easy to find. Alison is warm and vivacious with a vast knowledge of Camden and its music scene. We were brought to many pubs and venues and Alison had something fascinating to say about each one. If you're not a fan of walking not to worry, Camden isn't that big and there are plenty of stops! My sister's into punk and ska and I'm an indie rock girl but both our tastes were accommodated as bands and musicians from all genres have lived and played in Camden. The tour is a great insight into the music history of Camden and I'd recommend it to anyone with an interest in alternative music. A really fun hour and a half!

My sister and I have been planning this tour with Laurence for two years due to COVID. It was well…read moreworth the wait !!! We decided on two full days, and that still wasn't enough time. Laurence took us to the following: * Avebury / Avebury Sanctuary * Amesbury Archer burial place * Marden Henge * The Devils Den * Cuckoo Stone * Source of the River Avon * Durrington Walls * Silbury Hill * Woodhenge * West Kennett Long Barrow * Wiltshire Museum * Alexander Keillor Museum * Stonehenge * Mesolithic Post Holes at Stonehenge * Stonehenge - Greater Cursus He was extremely knowledgeable about the archaeological sites and the Wiltshire landscape. Due to the Queen's passing, we were unable to attend the Stonehenge inner circle access. Laurence was quick to find a bypass road and we were able to view the stones, as well as rearranging the day's schedule, so we could attend a 96 round gun salute fired by 14 Regiment Royal Artillery at Stonehenge later that afternoon. My sister and I are already planning our next tour with Laurence :

David is an excellent local guide! He contacted me days before the tour just to confirm everything…read moreand answer any questions I had. He also let me know that the time was changing the night before our tour, which was very useful information as the hotel did not mention anything about a time change and we were not aware of it. David is very knowledgeable and shares a lot of information while driving to each destination. We learned about not only the sites we were set to see but also about the buildings, statues and areas that we passed along the way. We started our day at Hampton Court. David provided us with tips on how to make the most of our time there. We were able to explore on our own and then he picked us up for our lunch break. David had reservations already made for us at a cute restaurant on the river. We ate inside the restaurant and David stayed outside and was ready to go when we were done. The food and service there was excellent. We then continued to Windsor Castle. We were able to take all the time we wanted touring the castle and then shopped around the town afterwards. When we were ready, I simply sent David a text and he was there and ready to go in 5 minutes. We had a pleasant drive back to our hotel with great conversation. Ask him anything about the area and he will be able to answer with confidence. David is also knowledgeable regarding accessibility at the sites. My mom needed to use a cane that day and David was very patient and assisted her with getting in and out of the van. Additionally, we asked David about local markets to visit the next day and he provided us with information on several different ones. We went with the market he recommended and my mom had a blast walking around and shopping. Bottom line, we had a great time, we appreciated his service, and we would definitely book with David again.
