We took this tour on our last day in London, and it was the highlight of our visit to England. We are big Downton Abbey and Endeavor fans so this tour was perfect for us. Our guide (Carol) was extremely knowledgeable about everything Oxford and Downton. Our bus driver (Christian) was excellent too. Loved the walk through the little town of Bampton (Downton). Of course the highlight was going inside Highclere Castle. So beautiful and a great mix of the "real world" and the "fictional world". We recommend this for Downton Abbey fans as well as anyone interested in the history of the great estates. Two thumbs up!
