5.00If you are a Downton Abbey fan, this excursion is a wonderful look into their world! Highclere castle is quite impressive and the trip to the village is an added bonus. Richard was our guide and is extremely knowledgeable and personable. We had beautiful weather for August and a very enjoyable time.

4.00Visit the village of Bampton, famous for being the filming location of Downton Abbey and Highclere Castle. Our guide was very nice and told us lots of anecdotes. However, I wish I had a little more time to visit the castle.
