Amazing experience! Our pilot Bob took us around Central London in such a professional and friendly manner. He was very polite all through out and made the experience so much better as we were able to sightsee all the popular landmarks. My partner was extremely happy with her surprise! The company as a whole were really helpful with bookings and directions to the venue.

Hampton Court Palace, the home of England's most notorious king Henry VIII, has tales of ghosts, executions and his 6 wives! Perfect if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of central London, Hampton Court has something to please all the family. There are two palaces to look round, Henry VIII's built in the 1500s and a second palace built for William III at the end of the 1600s. In addition to the two magnificent palaces, there are stunning gardens to look round and a chance to see the complicated game of real tennis in action! Oh and of course, for the young and young at heart, there's the world famous Maze! Tours last between 2-3 hours and start at 10.30 a.m.. The meeting place is outside the West Front Gatehouse. The tour price is for the whole tour and is in addition to the palace entry fee. This is a private tour for your group only and allows you to customise it to your liking. Do check out my 'Excellent' Trip Advisor reviews.

Sandy provided our family of 7 (ages 14-75) with a great introductory tour of the St. James area. She was able to accomodate all of our requests and discuss our collective interests in the area on a wide range of topics from architecture to cuisine to the royal family. She was timely, efficient and pleasant to spend time with. I would highly recommend her.

Our flight was piloted by Chris. He was very informative and polite and took us over the Isle of White, the beach, Weymouth. The actual experience was AMAZING!! Everywhere we went he told us about it and the experience itself was amazing. I highly recommend this as it is definitely an experience you will never forget, one reason for that is that he handed me the controls and I FLEW THE PLANE! Everything was nice, chilled, very safe and easy. Overall, couldn't have been better ????

My family and I chose this tour in August last year. I was recommended this company by a friend who had previously used them. It was a fantastic experience which the family still reminisce about regularly. I’ve used your services all over the world but none as personal as this. It certainly wasn’t your generic sightseeing tour, Paul really brings the history to life. He was able to hone in on our interests and show us things he believed we would like to see. It was completely tailored to us. A very special day. I can’t recommend this tour and the services provided by this company enough.
6. Private Windsor Day Excursion (from London)
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 3 reviews
Just 60 minutes from Central London into the wow-wonderland of Windsor-on-Thames. The Queen of England has made it her home…and yes, it’s worth all the fuss. We stop at Runnymede Field where King John signed the Magna Carta in 1215, the big daddy of constitutions worldwide At Windsor, your day is pretty well chalked out. A guided walking tour, followed by a caffeine fix at an atmospheric English cafe, and jaw-dropping moments at the official residence of Her Majesty. There’s still St. George’s Chapel, tombs of many of English Kings and Queens, and the venue of the celeb-wedding of Harry and Meghan. A lunch table at a relaxing riverside restaurant or maybe you prefer a traditional afternoon tearoom with chintzy china in the village? Free time to visit Eton College, where 13 British Prime Ministers and Princes William and Harry studied, enjoy some shop browsing, or stroll along the River Thames. Useful tip. Save the hassle of long lines by pre-ordering Castle tickets with us.
Inclusions: Private Driver Guide, Live commentary throughout the tour, Bottled water
Exclusions: Gratuities

I'm really glad I booked with Richard's Tours and certainly wasn't dissapointed! I had other things on in the morning so with short notice, Richard responded to agree a meet in the afternoon and he was bang on time. He was presentable, amiable and down to earth. It was immediately obvious that he was very keen to share his well researched knowledge, which was reassuring given that having paid for a private tour, I was getting a lot more than an off the shelf group tour (from what others have described to me). Born a Londoner and more than familiar with the area, he regularly checked that the tour pace was comfortable to ensure I was happy with the 3 hour route. He was very helpful with fotos and encouraged questions and discussions on this still mysterious subject, which is pretty clear that he's personally interested in, so much so that in the short time, not only did I acquire a lot of knowledge, but he's actually perked my own interest in Jack The Ripper! Although some parts of the area are still dodgy, I felt completely at ease being with Richard, who increasingly came across as more of a friendly local rather than a tour guide, and despite the atrocious weather, the 3 hours passed well beyond my expectations given his abilities - so excellent value for money. In conclusion, I should add that I'm also from London, but Richard's Tours aren't just for tourists, so if you're short on time and want a knowledgeable host, then Richard Chambers is your man. I, for one, will be checking out his other tours!

Went once it was brilliant. Faultless. Worth the money. Went again with group of friends. Lounge was closed as no staff turned up. No notification. No apologies. Company hard to get hold of for refund/complaint. Compensation was....1 free visit in the future..... the one we had already paid for.....sadly disappointed. Want to go back but only if it’s going to be open!!
