We did a tour with Trafalgar last year in Italy and loved it. This tour did not seem as well organized and I did not see some of the things I had hoped to see in England. Liverpool could have been left off the tour. The Beatles optional tour was the only thing offered there and it was just a big city otherwise. We would have loved spending more time in some of the smaller places and there is so much history in Great Britain that this tour just did not touch on.

Our trip was great. We had a fabulous time. The tour guide was very friendly and helpful (and quite funny - we laughed a lot). We would definitely book with them again.

great bus driver, but director did not come up to my expectations as compared to other tour directors I have traveled with. We had long periods of silence on the bus, little info of what we were seeing on the bus as we traveled the road little history of what we were going to see, what info we received was mostly read to us, very formal she was a good organizer, pleasant and courteous. I would recommend longer time at the major sites even if we saw less sites.
