Top Tour / Top Guide / Top Notch! - Our tour was a highlight of our London visit. Eddie is a true gentleman and very professional. We was an endless source of knowledge and enthusiasm. We never felt rushed on the schedule. He kept us on time and even added a few very special side stops. Over and beyond expectations! Thank you Eddie…Hope to see you on our next London visit!

Leeds Castle and Canterbury tour is "WOW' worthy. - We thoroughly enjoyed our two outings with London Country Tours; one being to Leeds Castle, Canterbury and the White Cliffs, AND the second to Warwick Castle and to Stratford on Avon. Two wonderful days of having a personal guide to these scenic and very interesting places, with pick up and return directly to our doorstep. Our driver and guide, Steve, was the best! Very knowledgeable. We will definitely take more tours with them on our next visit to the UK.

Leeds Castle, Canterbury Cathedral, Cliffs of Dover - After getting picked up at our hotel, off to Leeds Castle, got there just as it opened. Meliane dropped us off at front gate and with spent a wonderful time at the grounds. Then off to Canterbury and time in the city. A great lunch for all, and then off to Dover for a view and hike around the top and bottom of the cliffs. Meliane spent extra time to accommodate a couple in our group that had mobility issues. Thanks for her support with this. A great day all in all

A Day to Remember! - Our private tour with Eddie was absolutely the most amazing tour we have ever taken. Having traveled to many countries and places we have never had a tour guide so knowledgeable and charming. We saw so many villages we didn't expect to see. To say we were so impressed is an understatement, we were simply captivated. So much so, we're going to repeat the same tour next May with Eddie. Thanks for the Memories. Looking forward to seeing you in May 2025. Stephanie and Mary, Colorado Springs,CO, USA

Wow and Wow! - David arranged our tour of the White Cliffs of Dover, Leeds Castle, and Canterbury. The special place David took us to see the white cliffs took my breath away. No tour buses, no large tour groups. This day was made extra special with the extra little places along the way, Leeds Castle is a must visit, the grounds are too beautiful and fascinating not to see. Highly recommend David and London Country Tours.

Beautiful Spring for a ride in the countryside with David driving. - Friends and I just returned from a wonderful 11 day trip to England's South East Coast with David Stubbs, May 6-16. David is an excellent driver and possesses vast knowledge of Britain's history and has a brilliant sense of humor. We got a real appreciation for the peaceful English countryside dotted with horses and sheep and have total confidence in David's alert driving skills particularly on the back roads, some of which were single track. The Jurassic Coast was spectacular and the sun rises were awesome. This was our 6th trip with David and another tour is in the making for 2025.
Cheers,
The American Wild Women + one

Picked up 2 hours late. Little tour information - The three sites are lovely and we had a beautiful day. However we were picked up two hours late. Our driver, Peter, told us he was never given our hotel. I have two emails where I confirmed our hotel and address. Peter is a driver not a tour guide. While he was attentive he did not offer any tour information. A disappointment after previous good tours with Trip Advisor/Viator.

Very very angry with misleading description on GetYourGuide - DO NOT HIRE LONDON COUNTRY TOURS if you think you're getting a guide along with a driver. We paid almost $1100 for just the two of us to see the Dover cliffs, Leeds Castle and Canterbury instead of taking the ship's excursion because we wanted to see all three. We ended up with a very nice driver, Alam, but he was no guide at his own admission, even though the description on GetYourGuide states they're all ex-history teachers. The "brand new mini van" had very uncomfortable seats and two of them were back-facing! Most large tour vans have a microphone for the driver to make it easy to hear him. This one didn't. We offered a reduced amount to David, supposedly the company owner, because we really wanted to see the sites but he offered less than a $300 reduction. We refused and were returned to the ship where we were fortunate to find Artur's Taxi to take us at a quarter of the price and much more information.

Overpriced driving tour with unscrupulous "guides" - Horrible customer service. We were charged $1000 for a private driving tour around Dover for 2 adults, 2 kids and an infant as a cruise excursion for 6 hours. Our cruise ship canceled our port of call to Dover and while other local tour companies worked with Tripadvisor or Viator to refund passengers fully in this same situation. David Stubbs from London Country Tours refused to refund us even partially for a tour he did not provide to us. Even London Country Tours' website states that they only need a $100 deposit to book a tour for under 8 persons with the remainder to be paid to the guide after the tour. Our "guide" was not willing to even partially refund us minus the deposit and pocketed the entire amount. I would caution anyone deciding to book a cruise excursion with this company as they will keep all your money even if the ship decides to cancel the port of call last minute when that is not the norm in the tourism industry. We have taken multiple private shore excursions through Viator that have been fair and equitable in such situations and we have been glad to support them. Please consider supporting the numerous other scrupulous local tour operators with your hard earned tourism money.
