5.00Chris was an excellent tour guide whose knowledge and humor made this tour the highlight of my trip to England. In addition to all the amazing sights advertised on the tour, we even got a bonus visit to Byland Abbey. Chris did a great job of preparing us for each stop and providing context for what we were seeing. I can’t recommend this tour highly enough!
