The actors were great, and it really walks you through that time in history. It’s not too long or too short of a tour, and it gives you a great, interactive lesson.
I also wanted to say we had a 4:30 tour; however, our flight was late and they easily accommodated us in the 5:00 tour. I thought that was really great customer service. Thank you!

It was entertaining and educational. The tea room was wonderful with their fresh bakery. The employees do a great job impersonating old British characters.
