British Tours

This was our second time using British Tours. They always do a super job and the guides are extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend using them!

Tom Harrison was our Guide for a day of exploring Warwick Castle then on to Stratford on Avon for a chance to appreciate Shakespeare’s life and times. I wanted lunch in a Pub and the one he took us to was excellent! This is my second tour with Tom and I must say he always finds something extra to add to an already amazing day. I would give him 10 stars!

I hired British Tours to take my mother-in-law to Downton Abby (from London) and the surrounding area for her 75th birthday on a visit from the States. Her driver was Justin, and when she got home she absolutely RAVED about the service and treatment she received from him! He was super kind and accommodating to her and her traveling companion, and made sure their visit was beyond stellar. Great company to work with, great staff - absolute pleasure, highly recommend!

We used British Tours for a day trip during our layover at Heathrow airport. Our guide picked us up at the hotel (where went to freshen up after the overnight flight) - the van was very comfortable for the 4 of us plus the guide and all our luggage. We traveled first to Windsor and then to Oxford. We had a delightful time. Our guide was informative and interesting. He was flexible and kept our interests in mind as we visited these cities.He knew the ins and outs of finding the best picture spots, lunch and tea spots, and very importantly - where to park! The weather was beautiful and the tour was wonderful. We were able to arrange everything with ease via email. We're so glad we used British Tours! We recommend them highly and will be calling on them again the next time we're in the UK.

We booked the private plane Normandy Beaches Tour from London in 2018 because we were time poor but also because the tour started when you were in the air above the beaches. Our first two dates were cancelled because of bad weather, but third time lucky five of us were able to make the trip. On a gorgeous sunny day we took off to France for the day (for a group of Australians this alone was a novelty!). Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and the tour was everything we hoped it would be. We still talk about what a fabulous time we had and how lucky we were to have been able to do it.

I originally reserved my tour in 2019 and it was supposed to happen in April 2020. The company was amazing about postponing for me and being very accommodating due to the situation.I finally was able to make this trip happen in May of this year and it was incredible!!Geoff was very personable, professional and went over and beyond to make sure my experience was everything I wanted it to be.I am so thankful for all that I was able to see and learn... they are highly recommended and I will definitely use them on my next tour!

Geoff was my personal tour guide and driver on a WWII tour. Since I wanted to see the village of Bassingbourn, the site of the airbase and its surroundings, and the Imperial War Museum in Duxford, he devised a personalized tour. We toured the Imperial War Museum in Duxford, and spent time at the American Air Force building, and the restoration building. In Bassingbourn, we stopped at the site of a WWII pub, and had lunch and a beer at the Belle Freehouse, its current occupant. We visited the Catholic church and drove around the village and the area of the airbase, closed to the public because it is an active RAF base. The defining moment came when Geoff showed me 323rd squadron memorial plaque, located in a field mearby. My dad’s squadron! Needless to say, when Geoff leads a tour, he does his homework! Thank you, British Tours (especially Geoff), for going above and beyond expectations. I heartily recommend British Tours to all who want a truly memorable WWII experience.

This is tricky as the advertising for these tours. many selections come up when searching the real tour companies aren't mentioned in the ad only the tour. you go through a booking service who assigns you the tour companies. we had the Westminister Abby Churchill war room tours. you get an email telling you a meeting place there you must figure out who's the company that you're assigned to. we had City tours or something the flag was so faded it couldn't be read. we arrived early the guide was nowhere to be found another guide from a different firm advised us to stay. until he arrived. (you meet on a insanely busy London street corner and have to figure out who's who. he shows up found our name. says wait until others arrive. 10 minutes after the start time only 2 others showed. so we waited finally 30 minutes later. we moved on still with 4 people. ok here's the killer you walk to Westminister Abby. The guide walks you past it says a few words, and that's it. no entry, no inside tour, nothing. then he proceeds up Whitehall st. past the government buildings giving descriptions of each. takes you to the defense ministry to watch the calvary guard change. which can be seen for free. then back down Whitehall st to the Churchill warroom where your dropped of to tour on your own end of tour.45 pounds, each rip-off

We just finished an 12 day stay in London and went on two full day tours with British Tours. Paul was our guide for both tours and he was incredible. Our first tour was to Blenheim Palace and it was incredible. It was the first day they opened it with their Christmas decorations which were incredible. Our second tour was to Windsor Castle and Hampton Court. Again, Paul was incredible in taking us through both locations. His knowledge and insights are second to none. Would highly recommend Paul and British Tours and we’ll be using them again the next time we’re in London.

We had an amazing experience at the War Rooms. Alexandra was a highly professional and knowledgeable guide. She assessed our interests, had a deep knowledge of history and people, added huge value beyond just this venue and related effectively. She was truly outstanding! Simon our driver was very professional, courteous and adaptable. The whole experience was exemplary Thank youAK and RR
