Two Great Sites

4.00Sometimes the Windsor leg is affected by the King’s schedule. Because we had to enter Windsor earlier than normal, we had less time at Hampton Court, which needed more time. Two great things to see, however.
Hampton Court

5.00Hampton Court is awesome. Could spend all day there. The tour guide is very informative. Very good detailed information is played out. Nice to have such a professional guide
Not a guided tour

4.00I thought it was a guided tour and the tour guide just showed us to the castle and we had audio devices to explain what we were see. But was confusing which way to go next at Hampton Court. Also bus tables needed cleaning. Not worth the money.
Zero Stars!

1.00Zero stars! Tour operator cancelled on us. So frustrating and disappointing when this trip was a year in the planning and this was the tour I was most excited for. Wouldn’t recommend this tour operator. Unprofessional.
Only tour to see both of these castles on the same day!

5.00Great opportunity to see both of these Castles on the same day. Our guide Dolly was extremely knowledgeable and our driver V was very nice. The snack box was underwhelming and should be changed. The small size of the group (9) was also a plus.
