Why Book With Us?
We think there is nothing worse than a boring tour -except perhaps a boring tour guide! This is why we try to make all of our sightseeing trips as interesting, informative and fun as possible. We want you to enjoy yourself and learn something new. So whether you are taking a 3-hour walking tour of some of London’s top tourist destinations, a day trip to Downton Abbey, or a local tour with one of our friendly guides we want you to enjoy every minute of our time with us.
We believe that spending a day on a tour led by someone who isn’t passionate about the subject they are talking about, or the places that you are visiting is hell on earth! In our opinion, lip service is as bad as receiving no service at all. This is why we take time to find guides who are genuinely passionate about the subjects they are delivering tours in. We only recruit guides who deliver both an engaging and interesting tour. We also take time to ensure that all of our guides meet our strict and rigorous standards, including an averages 5-star rating. This way we can guarantee that you, our customers, are loving every second of your tour with them. For us, the most important thing is that you have the best possible experience.
All of our friendly guides have big personalities and a bigger love of the tour subject that they are delivering. From passionate playwrights who will take you on tours of London’s Theatreland or around Shakespeare’s London, to local guides who know a city, its historic hotspots and its hidden gems. Our guides are there to make history your guide to a tour you will never forget.

At Tours of the UK, we take great pride in our work and the fun, friendly and informed attitude of everyone who works with us. We also pride ourselves on delivering the most accurate tour possible. To ensure this our scripts are written, researched, and cited as if they were academic texts by members of our team who possess a higher (graduate) degree such as a Masters or a Doctorate. This helps us, and our guides, combat the urban legends that have cropped up over time across the UK. It also means that should you want to learn more, our guide can point you to the research we used when creating the tour.
While insisting that our scripts are written and developed in this way can be time-consuming and sometimes difficult, this process enables us to keep up to date with the most recent of information and research. It also means that you have peace of mind about the accuracy of the information delivered during the tour. That said, our guides are always happy to share with you local stories, anecdotes, and rumour, and explain how when repeated often enough, these stories and half-truths can become accepted fact. After all, as the old Irish proverb says: ‘the truth never got in the way of a good story’.
If you have any questions about the tours and trips that we offer please do not hesitate to contact us. We also love to hear any feedback that you might have about our tours, our guides, or anything else. While we aim to answer your questions within 48 hours, although during the peak season this may be longer.
Fantastic tour, amazing guide!!! – We absolutely loved Cardiff. Our tour guide, Dewi, was totally amazing! Lots of great history, very entertaining and super friendly. High level of local knowledge. Our group was aged 13… read more to 50 – all had a great time. Zero negatives, all positive!
An awesome insider's view of Wrexham – We had an unforgettable tour of Wrexham with Bryan and are so appreciative to him for the time and energy he put into this day. He gave our family an… read more inside look at the Wrexham football club, town, and community. He knows the city, community and football club intimately. I especially appreciate that he was able to connect easily with the three generations (parents in 70’s, me in 40’s, plus 2 teenage children) in our group!
Amazing!! – Dewi was very informative and made the history really fun and interactive! He was also very mindful of our interests and worked it into his tour. Would definitely recommend!
Who knew Cardiff was so interesting – We loved our private walking tour with Dewi. He picked us up at our hotel lobby and took us all over. I’m not a fast walker at all but he… read more set an easy pace. I’m the Dr Who fan, Hubby is not but Dewi had so much Cardiff history including a visit to the art museum that he enjoyed it every bit as much as I did. We had no idea Cardiff was such a center for films. We also learned about locations used in Sherlock and James Bond. Dewi was a font of knowledge about the area and his restaurant recommendations were also spot on. Such a great tour!
