Excellent and epic drive into the country, with a look at Greenwich on the way. Very comfortable vehicle, well driven by our guide Eddie. Door to door. Eddie was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. He arranged a great restaurant for lunch and headed us in the right direction at each of our stops. Leeds Castle should be on everyone’s list. And the rainbow from France to Dover’ white cliffs, maybe not entirely Eddie’s doing, capped off a memorable day. Thoroughly recommend.

We booked this private tour thru London Country Tours (David Stubbs) and I would highly recommend this to anyone. The driver/tour guide (Peter) was excellent and adapted our trip route and time at each location to suit our desires. Be prepared for a history lesson as we found out Peter was a history teacher which enriched the experience. The countryside drive was just as enjoyable as the locations visited. If you have 4+ people, a private London Country Tours is the way to go as the cost becomes more economical vs. paying a per person rate with a group tour operator and it is far more flexible in terms of spending time at your preferred locations. We were picked up and dropped off at our London Airbnb.

This was an amazing tour! David picked us up from our hotel in London and we headed off to Leeds Castle (which is beautiful!). After our visit there, we stopped in Canterbury to visit the cathedral and finally, the White Cliffs of Dover. While it was a long day, I think the tour was planned really well and we got to spend enough time at each stop. But the main highlight is David, he's so much fun to talk to and full of really great information - he even gave us recommendations for other places to visit in London during our stay. All in all, I highly recommend touring with David and London Country Tours!

Steve, our driver/guide was great. Very knowledgeable and provided all necessary information and kept the day interesting. I highly recommend his services. The sights were OK but nit necessarily spectacular. We did get a bonus stop at the zero meridian wich was a great treat. Leeds Castle was a bit underwhelming as we have seen better elsewhere in Europe but the story about Henry the VIII was enlightening. Canterbury was historically significant but again underwhelming as we have seen much better cathedrals elsewhere. The white cliffs of Dover were a sight to see for sure and Steve made it easy for us to get a number of views. We got everything we bargy for so I would recommend this tour.

We booked this tour thinking we were paying for everything that was listed. Whilst the tour guide was very nice, he was not even from the UK & only lived here for 8 years. He was not an ex history teacher and did not drive in a brand new comfortable mini van. This trip was a huge disappointment and waste of a lot money. I would not recommend this trip to anyone and think it would probably be much cheaper taking a taxi.

We are completely satisfied with our tour. Our guide, David, was friendly and as helpful as he could be. We had a wonderful day.

This was a highlight of our trip! Eddie, our tour guide, also went out of his way to make sure we had the best time! We couldn’t have asked for anything more! Thankful we got to experience these beautiful locations and grateful to Eddie for the best time!

Had a great day trip away from our London stay with a great driver - Dean was a fantastic guide. We highly recommend this tour.

Our tour began by Hyde Park and went to Canterbury, Leeds Castle, Dover Castle, and the Dover Cliffs (Our plan), plus some unplanned stops (suggested by our wonderful driver of villages, churches, and scenic overlooks the bus tours will never see.) This was the sort of tour you hope for when you begin planning a vacation. The driver was on time, extremely knowledgeable of the locations we’d planned to see, everything in between, history, the best dining options based on our preferences, and the size of the van allowed our family of five to do more than any large group bus tour. The van was very comfortable, but small enough to take scenic back roads, drive right up to sights, stop at smaller locations never visited by bus tours, and make extra stops to appreciate sights or scenes the bus groups will never see from the highway. Compared to the price of individual bus tour tickets, the little extra we paid for meant more stops at a much more leisurely pace, without working off the herd’s timeline. The driver made suggestions based on our priorities of time allowances for each stop we wanted to do and they we always spot on. If you are investing time and money hoping for a memorable experience, London Country Tours is the way to go. You’ll see and experience what you want to see, in a way that’s enjoyable and memorable, not what is the most effective or convenient for the large bus company. Courteous, efficient, knowledgeable, and flexible. We highly recommend them.

I booked this to do with my parents who both use canes. I loved that they could do the sites at their own pace. Leeds and Canterbury were spectacular! The only disappointment was the driver did not tell us about the history of the places we passed or visited or unless we asked. I am used to tour guides telling us all about the areas as we pass with that we’re going to visit when I’ve done these type of tours. The driver was the tour guide. He was pleasant and very nice. He helped my parents in and out of the van each time and got them as close as possible to each place that we visited. My parents and I had a once in a lifetime experience and I really love the tour!
