Amazing tour with a terrific guide! Matt was extremely knowledgeable, very interesting and had a great sense of humor, all of which made for an outstanding experience. He took the time to learn about our interests and customized the day to ensure we got the most out of the tour. Also, he was very personable and a very natural conversationist. We have had a number of very knowledgeable tour guides in the past but not always the best when it comes to engaging in conversation throughout the entire tour. He also gave us a number of terrific recommendations for places to see, things to do and great restaurants to enjoy after our tour with him.

What a fantastic day! Matt was such a plethora of knowledge about Stonehenge and Salisbury and connected both to English history. Visiting these two locations alone would have been a mistake for us. The richness of the tour with Matt (including picking a great lunch spot in Salisbury) was so worth it! Kudos to Matt and Galahad Tours - hope we get to meet again!

My mother and I enjoyed our time with Matt on a guided tour of both Stonehenge and Salisbury from Bath. Matt was particularly thoughtful about designing the tour based on our personal interests after taking the time to listen to what we were curious about. He was particularly well-versed on Stonehenge and provided a great overview at the centre before the experience of walking around the stones themselves. In Salisbury, he picked a beautiful and interesting historical pub to eat lunch at before a short tour of the cathedral. We enjoyed the stroll around Salisbury with a quick peek inside St Thomas's Church to see the medieval Doom Painting. We peppered Matt with a myriad of questions about English culture, history, society, education, healthcare, architecture and politics. He's a great conversationalist and we learned quite a bit. We thoroughly enjoyed our day out with Matt and will remember it always. Thank you, Matt!

Matthias made sure we saw everything we wanted and then more. His knowledge of the history and pop culture around Stonehenge alone was incredible. But he also knew how to time our visit so we avoided the crowds. Very congenial and friendly. Enjoyed learning about Salisbury beyond just the cathedral. Highly, highly recommend!
