“Great service overall. Friendly driver and guide. Real personal service. Would highly recommend.”

Helpful Report

“Well done! We really enjoyed our day. No suggestions for improvement.\n”

“the van picked us up on time & the driver was very pleasant. We got from London to Southhampton in a timely manner, and he even let us stop at a rest stop for a bit. My only suggestion for improvement might be that you have water bottles for sale for passengers given the long journey.”

“The transfer was late to the hotel because of traffic, although it may have been there for some time before they realized we were outside waiting. There seemed to be some confusion between the driver, service, and hotel staff.”

“*** was our guide to Sarum, Salisbury, Stonehenge, and Avebury. He was an absolute delight and very knowledge. We chose International Friends on the advice of a tour operator after our small group tour with them was cancelled. We were very happy with the substitute.”

“Great experience! The guide was very helpful and friendly indeed. Though the schedule was a bit tight and both my friends and I didn't think we got enough time to explore both sites (especially oxford because of the terrible traffic conjunction)”

Helpful Report

“The driver was 10 mins early which was very impressive by those waiting and we headed off to pick up the final member. I was very very impressed with the tour and we arrived back in the city earlier as all passengers were ahead of the scheduled time which was a first.\nWould thoroughly recommend the tour as a brilliant option to all. Care to be with elderly due to some stairs and walking but if you walk at your own pace all should be good.”

“We took the small group tour for the Making of Harry Potter & Oxford and our guide was Jennifer. It was a fabulous day, starting with a walking tour of Oxford and then some free time afterwards. Jennifer hit the highlights of Oxford which was nice and then ended the tour with our entrance to the Divinity School. A couple of suggestions: (1) Provide a map of Oxford so participants can return to the sites they liked the best (2) end the walking tour at Christ Church as many people wanted to enter to see the great hall and stairs but had to return after the walking tour when the lines were longer. Perhaps provide entrance to Christ Church rather than the Divinity School as part of the tour as there was more interest here. \n\nThen we drove to the Warner Bros. Studios for the Making of Harry Potter. The studio has set this tour up perfectly. While it was very crowded, I thoroughly enjoyed the sets and costumes. \n\nOverall a great tour!”

“Had a real great time with my first solo adventure. Our driver/guide Tony was so funny and very accommodating.\nLoved the Warwick House Hotel where we stayed for the night.\nI loved Conwy and the village with the longest name!\nI just hoped we omitted Chester in the itinerary. We should have stayed longer on Llandudno, the seaside or visited another town in Wales. There's not much to see in Chester. Plus more time to take sceneries in Snowdonia the next day. \nAll in all, fab experience. My friends are asking how did I get to north wales by myself. I already recommended you to them. \nMany thanks!\n\n-***”

“Expected more to see in Stonehenge which really isnt your fault.”

“Guide was a bit off putting. Referred to us as "guys" all day but was helpful and knowledgeable. All in all a better day trip than Premium Tours which we also used. Liked the small coach. Good driver. Thank you.”

“It was very precious day, joining this Downton abbey filming place tour, could have very pleasant guide *** , who knows really well and good at *** voice and talking! \nThe coach bus was also very relaxing and spacy, \nthough I didnt use it but it was also with the toilet, \nand if you have the long usb code, you can charge the phone, I think you had better to add this point, as one of the advantage of the bus facilities.\nIf you like Downton abbey, I do recommend this tour to join.”

“Our tour guide is knowledgeable and excellent. Have definitely learnt much from him about Oxford. It's just a pity that our Oxford tour is too short. For the Harry Potter portion, it would be great if the tour of Hogwartâ€™s Library â€“ Duke Humfreyâ€™s medieval library at the Bodleian Library and Divinity Hall can be included in this tour. Thank you and I have definitely enjoyed this tour!!!”

“You guys are absolutely amazing. This was by far and away the best tour we have had while in London. The other tour companies can't even come close to the personal service you provided. Our guide and driver we're both awesome! If I had known in advance how good your tours were, I would have booked all my tours with you. I would and will wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone I know who is planning a trip to the UK.”

“Our guide *** was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. My wife and I enjoyed the tour very much. We highly recommend!”

“Out tour guide was excellent! His depth of knowledge about the history and lore of the sites we visited was one of the most exhaustive, instructional and entertaining I have heard. Everything about this tour was above reproach.We disembarked from our ship and the folks from Internationalfriends were there to receive us. No hassle, no concern about where to go or what to do.The tour was also beautifully planned and timed to make the experience most satisfying. Our first stop in Salisbury went without a hitch and at a reasonable distance. It made the travel to it just about perfect and the time spent there was adequate. Next came Stonehenge and again our guide provided with an abundance of details. As in the previous stop, the time there was just about perfect. We next visited Windsor Castle. We had been there before and asked the guide, who suggested we go accross the river to Eaton and we had lunch there. Very nice pub. We then left for Heathrow and were deposited in front of out hotel. Highly Recommend It.”

“Great service you can count on !”

“All aspects of service was great. I would love to have a confirming text the day before though. I make the reservations far in advance and I have traveled a long ways so it would be more comforting to receive a conformation the day before.”
