A must-do for Downton Abbey fans! - I HIGHLY recommend this tour! The guide was very knowledgeble and even had a book with pictures to show us where different scenes in the series were filmed. I really enjoyed the small group as it allowed use to ask more questions and really have a personalized experience. The town of Bampton was very charming and visiting Highclere was certainly a treat!! The grounds are beautiful and there are several places to have lunch or just grab a drink. This tour is a must-do for any Downton Abbey fan!

Best Tour Guides!! - It was such a wonderful all day outing. The tour guide Eva was absolutely HILARIOUS and has the whole group rolling with laughter from her jokes. Her insight knowledge of the Carnarvon Family truly helped with understanding the Highclere tour. This tour was such a fun experience. 10/10!!!

Excellent experience! - Mu hubby & I took this trip. It was one of the highlights of our trip to London, and I am a HUGE fan of DA!!! (He has never even watched one!) We both thoroughly enjoyed it. The tour guide was entertaining & just the right mix of information vs. DA fun for those who had "been drug along." Bampton was wonderful. Our only desire would be to have audio guides during the self-guided tour of Highclere.

A must do. - Small group tour with Richard, who has worked on Downton Abbey. He was very entertaining, and had wonderful anecdotes. Bampton village was the first stop for an hour, then onto Highclere house. A wonderful experience.

Poor meeting place instructions with no signs out indicating the Downton tour! - The directions were not clear as to where to meet. We missed the whole trip. I would like a refund. This was discussed with someone from the tour. We will be phoning again.
We were there just before 9 and were trying to locate the van!
My new e-sim card wasn't working 😕 so I didn't receive any messages.
