JP took my family and a few other passengers through the lovely country side to visit Stonehenge and Salisbury. He was amazing, very knowledgeable, friendly and funny. He narrated a chunk of the drive and we all learned a lot on just the journey. We came from a Disney Cruise and had a short time in port but we really wanted to see the Magna Carta. That being said, we didnt’ have a lot of time at each place but that is because of the Cruise itinerary. JP got it all done with a smile. Highly recommend this tour company!
Highly recommend this tour. My 17 year old daughter and I took this tour. We had a great day. Terri and Dorset tours provided sights, stories and history we never would have seen or heard about without them. We were little worried about the weather as it was a pretty rainy day, but there was still so much to see and hear about, it worked well. We both agreed we would have regretted it if we hadn’t gone. Highly recommend!
Danny took us on a great small-group tour. He was very knowledge, friendly, and professional. He took us places we could not have gone in a large bus. This was a perfect independent tour for a one-day cruise stop.
