GREAT Private Walking Tour of Southampton on Sept 15, 2025!! Our Tour Guide, Sam was excellent and very knowledgeable about Southampton's history; which he shared with us during our walk-about. We were a group of 2; so, this was truly a "private" tour. Thanks again for a great Southampton tour!! And thanks Viator for making it very easy to book especially with the "reserve now pay later" option.
