Title: An Unforgettable U.K. Adventure with Private London Tours ★★★★★ 5/5 I want to start by singing the praises of Private London Tours and, particularly, their fantastic director, Gio. I found him to be the most responsive and supportive throughout the entire planning process. He made excellent, timely suggestions, and the Blue Badge Tour Guides he provided were always punctual and ideally suited to the dynamics of our adult family. For the uninitiated, Blue Badge Tour Guides are some of the best in the business, but I'll leave you to research that; trust me, it's a game-changer! Over three days, Gio and his team curated a magical experience across some of the U.K.'s most iconic locations. Day 1: Our destinations were Windsor Castle and Oxford University/Christ Church College. Our guide Ildi was nothing short of fabulous. Her knowledge of the sites we visited was awe-inspiring, and she bonded effortlessly with our family. We still talk about the great memories from our day with Ildi, particularly the unforgettable Windsor Castle visit and our cherished time at a bookstore in Oxford. A big shout-out to Ildi! Day 2: Highclere and the Cotswolds, guided by the amicable Mike, proved a winning combination. Highclere was a unanimous favorite, with its breathtaking scenery, top-notch tour, and delightful post-tour tea. Mike's tailored approach included a memorable detour to a historic barn and a roadside lunch stop that became one of the trip's unexpected highlights. Kudos to Mike! Day 3: Dover and Canterbury, led by Joanne, I admit I needed to learn more about what to expect, but this day was a treasure trove of surprises. While our time in Dover was brief, it was worthwhile and left us eager to explore more in the future. But it was Canterbury that left us speechless. The city's stunning beauty and rich history had us all in awe. Joanne's passion for the location came through in her detailed explanations, and she fit right in with the family. Canterbury is a definite must-visit! In retrospect, I suggest taking a break after the second day, as walking and absorbing information could be pretty intense. But every morning, the bright smiles from our tour guides in our hotel lobby invigorated us for the day. Special thanks to our driver, whose name escapes me but who was a constant source of joy and greatly appreciated by my family. I cannot recommend Private London Tours and Gio's team of Guides enough. The attention to detail, personalized approach, and unrivaled knowledge of the U.K.'s finest spots made our journey unforgettable. Gio, please pass on our heartfelt gratitude to your exceptional team.

Our tour with Gavin with the absolute highlight of our entire London trip. The company had excellent pre-tour communication, even sending a picture so we would recognize him when he picked us up in our hotel lobby. We had an excellent driver, and Gavin described many things as we drove out of town. He is witty, charming, and extremely knowledgeable. We bypassed lines and he took our experience to the absolute next level. I cannot recommend this company enough. Please commend him on a job well done. I will always remember our day with him.

We booked two full days back to back. The first day to Stonehenge & Windsor Castle included a private guide and driver. We could not have asked for a better tour guide (Gavin) and driver (Tanveer). The day was perfect. Gavin was able to deliver us so much information throughout the day. He made it fun for all of us. My wife and two children (17 & 19) can’t stop talking about the day. The second day was an in town day of London’s Westminster Abbey, Tower of London (The Crown Jewels & Tower Bridge), & St Paul’s Cathedral? This day was just as perfect as the first day. I strongly recommend this company to show you around London. They truly helped to build great memories for my family. We will never forget our time in London thank to “Private London Tours”.

Private London Tours is an excellent tour organization. The company was willing to combine two tours into a single day which was perfect for us – Windsor Castle and Westminster Abbey. Using Emails, Gio was exceptionally responsive to all of our questions which gave us confidence in making this reservation ahead of our trip. Compared to other tour services, we especially appreciated this company’s policy of having a separate driver and a dedicated tour guide. The car/van was plenty large and easily accommodated our collapsible wheelchair. Alex is an excellent guide who was very knowledgeable of the sights we visited. She spoke clearly and was very flexible to meet our needs. We especially enjoyed her stories and human-interest tidbits. We highly recommend using this company.

We had a great private zoom tour with Gio, as a special birthday treat for a friend. Such a nice way for us all to be together/apart, and take a mental break. Gio was fantastic at tailoring the tour to the special interests in our group. We had a great time!

Gio was a great, charismatic, knowledgeable, and relatable guide that made our virtual trip memorable and meaningful.

We enjoyed a day trip to Stonehenge and Windsor Castle very well organized by Gio. Our excellent guide Mark took us back in time thanks to his enthusiasm, his anecdotes and his obvious pleasure in passing on his knowledge. It was a very beautiful day to end our stay.
