Meet a Beefeater, see the Crown Jewels, and explore the Tower of London with early entry and free time to wander.
“Great insider tour from a Beefeater. The price was a tad high for a walking tour. The crown jewels was amazing. You won’t be able to see this anywhere else.”
Follow the Beatles through Liverpool by private taxi, visiting Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, Woolton, and their childhood homes.
“9th May 2024 We could not have enjoyed it more! Three hours flew past and we learnt lots to fill in the personal details of the Fab Four over the decades. The Tour was made in fabulous weather and enhanced by, also Fab, Tony, our guide. He was hugely enthusiastic and totally knowledgeable on his subject. No sign of 'jaded tour guide' and he was fun to spend time with. I think he enjoyed it too! Top marks all round. Suzanne Holmes, Sarah Jones and Michael Patrick.”
Follow Bridgerton filming locations across Bath, from the Featherington home to the Royal Crescent, with a private Blue Badge guide.

Explore Beatles Liverpool by private electric taxi, from childhood homes and schools to Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, and Eleanor Rigby.

Explore Cardiff Castle, Bute Park, the arcades, and Welsh food on a private two-hour walking tour led by guide Eugene.
“Interesting tour highlighting key aspects of the history of Cardiff. Eugene delivers the information very clearly and with humour which holds your attention making it a worthwhile way to spend a couple of hours while visiting the city. I would recommend this tour.”
Enter Stonehenge’s inner circle at sunrise or sunset, then explore Bath and Lacock on a full-day private tour from London.
“A great way to squeeze in the Roman baths, a Cotswolds village, and Stonehenge all in one day. The up close time with the stones can’t be beat!”
See the British Museum’s Rosetta Stone, Parthenon sculptures, Roman treasures, and Sutton Hoo with a private Blue Badge guide.
“As soon as we knew we would be in London on a father-daughter trip, we knew that we wanted to have a memorable and efficient time at the British Museum. We had heard how extensive and confusing it could be, taking up a full day (if not multiple) to see. We both also highly value knowing what we’re actually looking at and understanding its significance beyond just its age. That led us to a private guide, and we lucked out with Anthony Matthews, who made our 2-3 hours beyond special and fly by. He was very comfortable to be around and was personable as an individual, sharing his own passions…”

Trace The Beatles’ Liverpool from Penny Lane to Strawberry Fields with a private guide, photo stops, hotel pickup, and luxury transport.
“An excellent tour provided by our driver, Ian. Well informed and interesting and Ian took time to explain things at the various stops. he also helped with photos which was a big plus. My only slight quibble is that it was a silver taxi and not the Merc I had been expecting. That apart, great value and a fantastic experience for Beatle fans.”
Enter Stonehenge’s inner circle at sunrise, visit Lacock, and explore Bath and the Roman Baths on a full-day trip from London.
“Loved being able to see Stonehenge and take pictures with no one else around (except the people on our bus). The guides were lovely, kind, funny, and informative. I felt very comfortable and the pace was great for an introductory tour of places I've read about all my life, but had not yet seen in person.”
Pick a city, a castle or a loch.
