We started in London at our hotel and spent about an hour by car to Blenheim Palace. Parking was about 300 yards from the Palace. The grounds are extensive and beautiful. Marty, our guide was great about tailoring the tour to our interests. We chose lunch at a Pub, but several nice lunch spots are available at Blenheim. Very nice day trip from London

I love being able to visit locations I read about in historical fiction novels.Plus I got to learn about the life of Winston Churchill. My favorite part about this tour is the walking around the grounds with my tour guide Kevin. A wealth of knowledge and just a fun tour guide. He makes the break out of London enjoyable.

Our tour guide, Kevin, clearly has keen interest in English history and knows it well. He was easy to talk to and he shared many “insider” facts regarding Blenheim - past and current - that made the tour especially worthwhile.
