    What James doesn't know about Hampton Court Palace isn't worth knowing!! Fabulous afternoon spent in his company.

    James was a very knowledgeable guide, and told us about factual details in a clear manner, and answered every question of our guests from USA. It immensely enhanced our experience of re-living royal history of Hampton Palace. Hence, would highly recommend having James alongside.

    James was very knowledgeable guide, giving us factual details in clear manner which was easy to understand and relive the royal history. He has background of masters in architectural history, so could answer each and every question of our guests from USA, who also thoroughly enjoyed it! Highly recommended - and going to Hampton palace without a guide would be less enjoyable

    Our guide James was delightful and completely knowledgeable on this subject. His expertise was exactly what we wished for and his explanations of the art, architecture and history of Hampton Court Palace and Henry VIII was clearly presented. He pointed out intricacies in the architecture and history of the tapestries that added a tremendous depth to the overall experience. Bravo, James. Could have spent more hours talking to him about the palace.
