Guide Eileen was great with lots of informative tidbits and the driver was timely and drove us safely. The trip was great all except that our pre booked cream tea at Blenheim palace had run out when we got there at 3pm+ which was disappointing. Would have thought they reserve this given its pre booked

Nice overview of Cotswold and palace. Was a long day but worth it. Guide Ellen was very helpful and interesting. Tea at palace was just scone, jam and cream Nothing special. One restaurant at palace was out of scones

Why aren't there zero stars available on Tripadvisor? 20th anniversary trip to London. Once-in-a-lifetime, we will never be back (we're in our 60's). Looked forward to seeing London sights. Bought hop on hop off London sights, blue bus. We hopped on, hopped off at bridge end close to the Eye. That was the ONLY time we rode due to the fact that a huge protest was taking place that day that we had NO IDEA was going on. The tour associates we spoke with at 2 different locations were basically "sorry about your luck". I informed them I wanted a refund. We had to take a black cab to our destination. We all totaled spent 100 pounds to go to only 1 destination, between the 70 pounds spent on Golden Tours and 30 on a black cab. I completed a request for a refund on the website, but was told again, basically, "sorry about your luck". There was an "offer" for a replacement prior to the end of March 2026, which is totally unacceptable since it's mostly a token offer as I explained very CLEARLY that this was a once-in-a-lifetime special trip and we'd never be back. VERY disappointed in the lack of true customer service. Avoid Saturdays in London, obviously, but if you are touring in London on Saturday, avoid Golden tours. We used Evan Evans for another trip while there, which was AMAZING. Don't expect a refund for ANY reason if you book with Golden. Shady business practices. The review would have been much different had they been more customer service oriented. ZERO STARS.
