It was a beautiful experience. Pick up point on the booking form was not clear so it should be removed. There is no pick up option only meeting point at the station.

Ticketing was ok except the requirement to print the tickets - I got a QRcode, so why to print? The best thing was the guide - Mel. As a guide myself I can assess his work. Professional, friendly, helpful a knew really everything. Hope the guide on our next trip will be the same quality.

Highly recommend this tour as it covers a lot of great locations outside of London. Enjoyed how all the visitors were given some time on their own to explore and shop around after visiting the main sites. Wish there was more time allocated in Oxford as there are many things to do in the City - maybe a bit of time could be reduced from Warwick castle and allocated to Oxford. Overall an amazing experience and highly recommend this experience
