What an amazing tour Mr Oz had with us. We did 3 locations and started the tour at 430am. The sunrise at wood henge and stonehenge is simply truly amazing. They are not just rocks as many people will say. The beauty of the landscapes, the natural beauty is a must see. Mr oz is the owner so we got to talk a lot about the how private tours ran. A lot of the tour company will just sell you many many locations, and just be hop on and hop off the bus. Mr oz let us spend time in each of the locations and told us many historical facts and interesting things about the places. Since he has a history degree, he taught us many things we didn't know as well as old English sayings.
Stonehenge: ask for the inner circle so you get to go into the stones but need to special arrange since they will only let 30 people in. Check with them. But it is a truly exciting experience to see rock up close and not just take a pic and go.
Bath: we lucky to head in Roman bath early. There wasn't a lot of people before 11. So go early. It is a must see. The audio guide is great and the city itself is amazingly beautiful. Wish we had a day to see the city and soak in hotspring. Next time.
Cotswolds/Lacock: very very cute little town with cute houses. A few harry potter film locations. Very cute town.
Overall, the quality of the trip is great. He talked and answered a lot of my 9 year old questions and kept us entertain so it was not a just a driver trip. He is a true tour guide. He even went above and beyond. He helped us pick up our tix to christ church the next day which was truly great!. Appreciate all his history, help, and knowledge. We will be back soon. And do another wonderful awesome tour with you!
For anyone looking to book a tour. Look no further !!! Join Tailor Tours and promise you won't just get a driver. You will get a true tour guide and a friend.
We enjoyed Stonehenge the most as we were almost the first in line, and was able to get some alone time with the site before a group of rowdy high school kids came along. Oz was also very knowledgeable and was able to give so much commentary on the origins of the Stonhenge, Woodhenge and some of the surrounding sites.
He was not able to accompany us into the Roman Baths, but the audio guide was good enough. He did take us to all the fantastic sites in Bath (with references to Netflix series and moves that was shot there). It really was a wonderful town, beautiful (makes me wanna move there).
Then onto Cotsworld (Castle Coombe) where the snow on the ground really made the village wonderfully Christmas-y.
It was also quite fortuitous to have booked with Oz as the rail strikes were happening that time, and he was able to drop us off at a Tube station en route back to London for us to get to our dinner location.
Really fantastic tour with Oz.
Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and went far and beyond simply reading a script as we've experienced with other tours in the past. He provided an amazing amount of context and nuance to what we were seeing that helped us (and the kids) really connect other sites that we'd seen across London. He was also hugely patient with kids, which really, really helped them enjoy the day.
Having a private car rather than cramming on a coach with others meant that we could make a stop if needed and allowed us some flexibility on the day. As well, we were picked up and dropped off at our flat which made the day much easier with children.
The back office staff was highly communicative throughout, helped us navigate which tickets and at what times we should pre-purchase and checked in with us the day before to confirm everything. Not having any surprises was very nice.
We couldn't have been any happier with our day with Tailored Tours. It was stress-free, hugely educational and made a memorable day out for the entire family. Couldn't recommend them more.
