Fantastic Private Tours with a Superb Tour Guide (Christian) - We had a fantastic and flawless experience working with Tailored Tours in booking three private tours. The owner was super prompt in communication and all follow-ups. He gave us valuable feedback in tailoring our tour itineraries. Christian was our tour guide for Canterbury, Leeds Castle, White Cliff of Dover, and the 'new' Jane Austen tour. We had an absolutely wonderful time with Christian as he shared his deep knowledge of the background and the historic landmarks. Christian's style was not to recite the historical facts all day long. Instead, Christian put a personal touch in leading the tours so we felt very comfortable. He was very pleasant, enjoyable, humorous, and highly entertaining all day long. He was also very accommodating with our preferring a 'grab and go lunch' (versus sit down at a restaurant) in order to maximize the time for sightseeing and picture taking. Each site had its unique beauty and history. We learned a lot from Christian. After three private tours, we truly highly recommend Tailored Tours and Christian as your tour guide. We want you to have a great memorable time like we did!

A wonderful tour with Christian! - Our family of six, including my 70+ year-old in-laws and our two young sons, had a fantastic day with Christian touring the White Cliffs of Dover, Canterbury, and Leeds Castle. He was on time, kind, and exceptionally skilled at balancing the needs of both older adults and energetic kids. Christian kept the pace comfortable without losing momentum, shared engaging history in a way everyone could enjoy, and anticipated our needs throughout the day. His mix of professionalism, knowledge, and genuine warmth made the experience stress-free and memorable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. The sites themselves were stunning and full of character. Leeds Castle was a highlight, with its beautiful grounds and a fun hedge maze that our boys loved exploring. Canterbury’s history and charm, along with the breathtaking views from the White Cliffs of Dover, helped to make our day one we will remember for years to come. If you are looking for someone who can deliver an unforgettable, perfectly paced, and genuinely enjoyable experience for travelers of all ages, I cannot recommend Christian highly enough.
