Doing what: Blenheim Palace Tour and The Cotswolds Custom Day Trip from London
My sister and I loved this tour and we highly recommend it. The tour was well organized and the guide very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Blenheim Palace is a must-see for all fans of Churchill and the gardens are just breathtaking. We very much enjoyed stopping in the different villages of the Cotswolds - one more charming than the other and quintessentially English! We would definitely do this tour again!

We loved this tour. Saw so much in the time alloted. Excellent and very personable guide. Good sense of humor. We thought we saw the American Flag flying with the Commonwealth flag at Buckingham Palace. She assured us we hadn't but "if we wanted to come back home, it was never too late"!

Doing what: London in One Day Sightseeing Tour
We took the full day tour of London on Sep. 15, our first full day in Europe. Our guide (Deborah) was personable, knowledgeable, and entertaining. Both our coach and driver (Jose) were the best we encountered during 4 weeks in Europe. The tour was everything you promised -- we loved it! We got lots of photos, plenty of time at St. Paul's and the Tower of London, and the best view ever of the mounted guards at Buckingham Palace. Thank you!

Doing what: London Full-Day Sightseeing Tour
Getting to the Tower of London early was a huge benefit in beating the crowds but this tour doesn't allow nearly enough time there. We managed to view only a small section of the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace (full time required is hour and half!) before spending time at Covent Garden for lunch. Our guide, David, was very informative on London's history, Westminster Cathedral and the Houses of Parliament and St Paul's Cathedral. The London Eye was a great addition to this trip and a good way to get an overall picture of London.

Highlight was being able to enter Buckingham Palace which can only be done during certain months.

This was a very interesting and wonderful tour. Not only did we see the beautiful Windsor Castle but also the changing of the guards. Being able to visit inside Buckingham Palace was was fantastic. It was everything you would expect the Palace to be. I would highly recommend this tour.

We had a very enjoyable visit to Kensington Palace on last month. We were greeted very warmly by the staff and began our visit on a very rainy morning in the cafe. Prices were resonable and the food quality was good.
The staff throughout the Palace were helpful, informative, and made us feel very welcomed at the Palace.
We were impressed at the pace we were able to visit. There was a "no rush" pace that we had not seen at other attactions of this type.
The one slight disappointment was the Diana display. It was small and seemed to do her a slight injustice.
We would reccomend Kensington Palace 100%

A good way to see a lot of London in one day. Visited the Tower of London and saw the Crown Jewels, river cruise, St Paul's, lunch at Coventry Gardens, drive by Buckingham Palace and perfect end to the day with champagne tea at Harrods. Couldn't have done it all on my own. Thanks Viator.

This was a great tour!! Pick-up location was very easy to find and on time. Tour guide David was very informative and funny. Buckingham Palace was amazing, although your not allowed to take pictures. Windsor Castle was also amazing. So beautiful and the changing of the Guards was well worth seeing. There is a room with pictures of the Queen through her years with her family that was really nice to see. She was actually smiling in most of them and she looks really happy. You don't get to see that side of her in public. This is a must do tour.

This is two tours in one. Both have enough time and are amazing to see. Each palace is like a huge museum, so if you are an art fan this is the best.

We loved this day trip! The guide (Sheila) and bus driver (Chad) were wonderful! Everything went so smoothly on your end. We were the last group thru the Palace and even though the guide thought it was rushed, we really enjoyed all the info. We wish we could have had more time in the villages, but understand it was a really full day. Will definitly use Viators again.

Only British Royalty could turn on such a great show. This is a must see if you are here while the palace is open to the public. Once again Viator have done it well. Have no worries. Everything we have booke with Viator has come up trumps. We have booke tours, attractions and West End shows everything from quality coaches to great seats have worked out brilliantly. 10/10 Viator. Highly recommended

Great tour! Both our guide, Kevin, and driver, Michael, were knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. We fell in love with the Cotswolds and hope to return there. Blenheim Palace and grounds are beautiful. It was a great day!
