Windsor Castle and the Roman Baths depend on your chosen ticket option. Guides such as Phil, Simon, Deborah, and Kevin have earned special praise for lively commentary.

“Pablo was a good tour guide. Helpful with recommendations and providing some history (although I wouldn’t have minded a little more). Amount of time at Stonehenge and Bath was just right (we toured the Roman Baths and had some time left over to walk around the Christmas market). Could have used a little more time at Windsor but understand it’s a long day and would be hard to provide this. Bus was comfortable, with bathroom on board. Eating on board was permitted.”
