About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- _A5967VU0 contributionsEfficient tour in CotswoldsThank you for very nice trip. It was efficient to go around 4 villages, but I’d like to spend more time in Bibury. And I’d like to go to Bourton-on-the-Water too. The guide has enough knowledge about UK and it was good to spend a lot of free time based on her guide.Written 16 March 2025
- josephsR8380CO0 contributionsGreat visit to Windsor!This tour was a great way to see not only Windsor castle, but the town of Windsor as well! We were able to get there early enough in the day to beat the crowds, and had plenty of time to walk around. The castle itself is AMAZING - there were so many different rooms to see. A must do if you are visiting London!Written 14 March 2025
- Connector208046593610 contributionsAmazing Views & a Great TimeFirst time in the UK so of course we had to visit Stonehenge, I'm glad I was able to find this because the tour was great!! Easy booking plus convenient pick up/drop off locations. Tem was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable about all the areas we visited/drove by & the views were amazing! 10/10 would recommend taking any these toursWritten 14 March 2025

- stackle840 contributionsGreat day never gets oldSecond visit to the studios and I swear it was better this time round had more chance to take it all in . Each visit they switch things around . If you are a Harry Potter fan I would suggest you add this to your bucket list .Written 12 March 2025
- dhauf20240 contributionsHistoric GemsCanterbury Cathedral was magnificent, and the White Cliffs of Dover left us speechless. Our guide was knowledgeable and kept everything on schedule. The coach was comfortable for the journey. We loved having free time to explore both locations at our own pace. Worth every penny!Written 6 March 2025
- Patricia E0 contributionsNick is a great tour guide!My adult daughter and I greatly enjoyed the tour and Nick, our tour guide, was the best! The weather was amazing - but chilly in the shade - and Nick thoughtfully walked us in the sunshine when talking to us. He was very knowledgeable and checked in with the small group often to make sure he was not overdoing it. Kept it fun and light!Written 4 March 2025
- 101melindaa0 contributionsDefinitely recommend!Worth the trip! Calem (guide/entertainer) and Mario (driver) were fantastic! Smooth ride, very attentive, polite and fun. We had great weather and beautiful views and had enough time at each stop for what we wanted to do. Our fav was the Dover Castle. If you go, definitely do the wartime tunnels. Calem recommended it and it was well worth it. It’s part of the admission (which is included in the package price) but takes about an hour, leaving less time to visit the rest of the castle. White Cliffs were breathtaking. There wasn’t a whole lot of time here to explore too far, but it was fine. Canterbury Cathedral was beautiful inside but the shopping center around it was a little off-putting. Lower your expectations before you get inside and you’ll be fine.Written 24 February 2025
- kristinaeS3823ND0 contributionsGuide no-showed!Our tour guide never showed. No call, text or communication of any kind to any member of the group that went. The driver showed up late (my son and I sat outside for 30 min in the cold before he came). He was a very nice man and did take us to the castle and get us in, but the audio guides were terrible that were provided by the castle themselves, so we wandered aimlessly for hours and learned nothing. The whole point of this booking was for the guide itself. Absolute waste of time and money and I’ll be asking for a refund. This is not acceptable.Written 21 February 2025
- Explore2154550 contributionsWonderful tour guide and driver!Kat and our driver were absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend them both, as well as Anderson tours! Thank you so much for a very special day!Written 16 February 2025
- 278gitas0 contributionsefficient visit to Windsor CastleThis tour was a very efficient way to visit Windsor Castle. I was picked up at a bus stop near the Earl's Court station; the trip to Windsor took about 45 mins. We had 2.5 hours to view the castle and the grounds. Visiting during the winter was great since there were relatively few tourists at the castle, which improved the experience. As an added bonus, the start of the visit coincided with the changing of the Guard.Written 14 February 2025
- raymondrI5236IE0 contributionsWindsor Castle ReviewWe had an amazing day out at Windsor Castle! The experience was both fascinating and memorable, with so much history to take in. Our tour guide, Nick, was fantastic--knowledgeable, engaging, and always kept us laughing, which made the tour even more enjoyable. The entire day was well-organized, and we truly appreciated the experience. Highly recommend!Written 29 January 2025

Visiting Osborne House on the Isle of Wight had been on my wish list for a long time and Anderson Tours provided the perfect way of doing this in a single day. Leaving London Bridge early, we drove to Southampton to catch the ferry to the island. A visit to Osborne House, a lunch stop at Shanklin and a cream tea break in lovely Godshill was a great itinerary for seeing just a few of the highlights of the Isle of Wight. Our driver/guide Brendan was very knowledgeable and fed us lots of interesting information which helped our understanding and appreciation of the places we visited. Will certainly look at other Anderson tours.

We had a very pleasant Experience coupled with a lovely weather and a lively driver Brandon. Osborne House is beautiful with historical garden, the only downside is going to the beach to stop for lunch and all the restaurant is full with waiting time of 40minutes to have your food. I think its best to have a break in Godshill village, where its more peaceful and quiet with loads of choices to sit down to eat.

Thank you so much for your kind and helpful feedback. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your day out on the sunny Isle of Wight and will pass your compliments to Brendan too. We are sorry to hear about the waiting time at the seaside restaurants, I think this may be a new problem as it's the first time we have run the tour in many months (due to COVID-19 restrictions). We will take your feedback into account and look at other options for a lunch spot. Thanks again for taking the time to leave us a detailed review and we hope to welcome you onto another day trip soon!

Great day out, as I don't drive and working this routing on public transport seemed a bit difficult with all the choice. This orientation trip was really good in this respect. On top of that to have such a wealth of information sharing from the guide Brendan, really learned us about the location. Timings were impeccable. Osborne House is gorgeous, fresh air on the beach town pier/promenade and then picturesque Godshill village with it's artisan barn. Really enjoyed this trip out the country.

Osborne House was really interesting to visit as well as the gardens. We also had lunch in Shanklin and spent some time at the beach which the children liked the most. Godshill village was also lovely and we took lots of pictures of all these beautiful places. The guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Overall, it was a great experience! Thank you Anderson Travel.

Long day but definitely worth it. Great to get out into the countryside and see a little nature. Osborne house was wonderful, don’t miss it. The guides were very nice and informative. Rest of trip, including God’s Hill, charming.

Dear Customer
Thank you for your five star review of the Isle of Wight tour. It is a long day but its lovely to get out of the city and into nature.
Being on the sea on the ferry over is a great calming reset and then the first stop at Osborne House is beautiful. The home is lovely but the grounds and gardens it sits in are also delightful.
Godshill is indeed charming and its great to get to the beach as well.
We hope you can travel with us again.
Kind Regards

We took a private tour of the island, saw Osborne House ( be there before 10 so you are first to enter. , a way to avoid the crowds). The island is just gorgeous.

Really enjoyed the trip, from the ferry crossing, to Osbourne House and the beach at Shanklin, however found the trip to Godshill a bit boring.
Thought the driver was incredibly knowledgeable and managed to be entertaining during the long coach journeys.
