Stonehenge was our favorite. Too short a tour of Windsor after the wait in the cold.. Oxford went well but the campus/town was not why we expected.

We had a wonderful time on this tour with our guide, seoul. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and entertaining. He shared many interesting facts and stories about the places we visited, and answered all our questions. He also gave us enough time to explore and take photos at each stop. The tour was well-organized and comfortable. The coach was clean and spacious, and the driver was safe and courteous. The pick-up and drop-off locations were convenient and easy to find. The itinerary was well-balanced and covered a lot of ground in one day. The highlights of the tour were: • Windsor Castle: The largest and oldest occupied castle in the world, and the official residence of the Queen. We saw the magnificent State Apartments, the Gothic St George's Chapel, and the Changing of the Guard ceremony. • Stonehenge: The mysterious prehistoric monument that dates back to 3000 BC. We learned about the theories and legends behind its construction and purpose, and admired its impressive stone circles. • Oxford: The city of dreaming spires, and home to the oldest university in the English-speaking world. We walked through the historic streets and buildings, and visited some of the famous colleges and landmarks. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see some of the best attractions in England in a day. It was a memorable and enjoyable experience, thanks to our guide, Seoul. He was the best tour guide I ever had, and I would love to join his tours again in the future. Thank you, Seoul, for making this tour so special!
