So, we spent $734 for two tickets to Hampton Court. It was to include private round trip transportation to and from our hotel, "skip the line" admission and a private tour. The transportation was wonderful; our driver Kamal delightful. Then it went completely opposite of what was expected. There was no "skip the line." At all. We stood in a very long line with everyone else. There was no private tour. At all. We were given a head set to provide our touring information. Just like everyone else. Again, we spent $734. For what? Certainly not for "skip the line" and a private tour! You can't tell me private transportation should cost that much. When I was asking another tour guide about a "skip the line," she mentioned she had heard from other Viator customers they too were disappointed with their Hampton Court experience. I have used Viator for numerous years to numerous countries and have always been pleased. To the point I always recommended their tours. After this experience, I certainly won't be using your services anymore and I certainly won't be recommending you either. You missed the mark completely on this tour and I feel I was completely taken advantage of. Very sad.

Far too much to do in a 4 hr tour. It was a well organized attraction, but I strongly recommend an all day tour. It took more than 1 hour to go from our hotel, so our touring time was limited to ~ 2.5 hours. The transportation to/from was excellent!
