    At the top of our ‘must see” list on our recent trip to London, was an excursion to Hampton Court Palace. How fortunate we were to have booked a private tour through Viator with Jo Cooper. Jo’s in-depth knowledge of this incredible historic site and all that is Tudor made this visit, without question, the highlight of our trip. Thank you Jo for a most memorable morning tailored especially for us; we learned so much and had so much fun in the process. I truly hope we meet again to catch up on some more “Tudor gossip”!!
