A perfect day - Geraint was a wonderful guide. Very fun, informative and knowledgeable about the history. He was patient and willing to go at our pace and answer our questions and take pictures for us. He even endured the rain to make sure we saw the gardens. The tour is a must for people who want to see true history and to see how the castle change from two hundred year time period. Very special experience. The high tea was amazing. We did a tea bus a few days prior and the food was okay and the baked goods were dry and not good. But where you go here for the high tea is amazing. The sandwiches are great the scones are to die for and the baked goods are melt in your mouth. Highly recommend, it’s called Mitre. All and all a perfect day.

My husband and I loved this tour. Our guide Geraint, was awesome. - This was a fun all day experience. We took the train from London to Hampton Court. We booked a private tour and glad we did. Our guide, Geraint, was awesome. He was so knowledgeable and personable and made the tour so enjoyable. We had afternoon tea at a restaurant across from Hampton Court. The tea and sandwiches were delicious. This is definitely a tour to consider and be sure to ask for Geraint.
