If you are a true fan of Downton Abbey then this is your rite of passage. Our Tour Guide Rory was very knowledgable about the series and the movies and was eager to answer any questions we had. The people in the village were very friendly and were also happy to share their experiences of the filming with us. It was very interesting to see how certain aspects of the village were transformed to facilitate the filming. It was great to see familiar buildings such as the hospital, Crawley House, Granthum Arms and the Church. The Gift Shop in the village had some very interesting items largely focused on the village side of Downton and the staff there are just the nicest people you'll ever meet. Highclere Castle and its grounds were just stunningly beautiful. The staff were happy to answer questions . The tour of the house was like walking back in time and making a deeper connection with the show by being in the same space shared by our beloved characters. The Gift Shop had some nice items for sale and the scones in the Tea Room are amongst the best I've ever had. All in all I travelled 4000 plus miles from Jamaica for this bucket list item that did not disappoint. From Jamaican Yushaine with Love.

It was an excellent tour through Brit show tour group. The tour guide was very very knowledgeable about everything down to Abbey and then some. I thought I was a fan and knew the show but I learned a lot on this trip that I didn't know before. Very fun educational and I wish it was longer. Cannot say enough good about this whole tour. Excellent!

Actually being in the real rooms! Also rewatching the dvds and viewing the show after actually being in the rooms is very inspiring!
