Hampton Court Guided Tour. Full day Access & High Tea

1.Hampton Court Guided Tour. Full day Access & High Tea

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 270 reviews · 4 hours 5 minutes (approx.) · from $212Our pick

Review of Hampton Court Palace with guided Tudor tour, gardens, full-day entry, and riverside afternoon tea for $212.12.

“Fantastic experience with Thomas! He was so knowledgeable about the Palace and so friendly. He took us through a large portion of the Palace efficiently but never felt rushed and kept us engaged with all of his exciting stories. Then we had a wonderful full high tea across the street on the river Thames which was very nice and the tea was so delicate. After tea we were able to return to the Palace on our own and explore for several more hours. We had such a wonderful day! Definitely one of the best tours we have ever done.”

Tokyo: Full-Day Tour w/Tea Experience,Buffet Lunch & Cruise

3.Full-Day Tour w/Tea Experience,Buffet Lunch & Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 151 reviews · from $105

Review of Tokyo’s full-day bus tour with Imperial Palace, Senso-ji, tea ceremony, Hilton buffet, bay cruise, and Tokyo Tower.

“Highly recommended, gives a great background about Tokyo, it's history and more. Our guide Atsushi san was amazing! he is very knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. Do take into account though that the tour is marked "wheelchair accessible", while in fact you can only take it if you can go up and down the bus's steps. Our amazing driver took care of taking my wheel hair in and out every time and Atsushi san made sure I won't miss out on anything!”

From Colombo: Kandy, Pinnawala and Tea Factory Full-Day Trip

4.Kandy, Pinnawala and Tea Factory Full-Day Trip

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 99 reviews · 12 hours · from $55

Review of a Colombo to Kandy day trip with elephants, the Sacred Tooth Relic, tea tasting, crafts, costs, tips, and honest drawbacks.

“The trip was absolutely worth it. I enjoyed how Rahim, my tour guide, maximized the tour and suggesting more places I should visit while I was in the area, though we covered all places to visit in the tour. I guess it was Rahim who made this tour a success and I owe him big time for making my encounter with the elephants a memorable and exciting one. He is so reassuring and makes things easier for me not to mention his patience in taking A LOT of photo for me.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 11 reviews · 14 hours · from $49

Review of a 14-hour private Kandy tour from Negombo, with Pinnawala elephants, tea country, temples, gardens, and optional cultural stops.

“It was a substantial and manageable programme. I did not imagine that we would be able to complete the predicted 14 hours. Our guide gave good ideas, which added to the enjoyment. Well structured sequence with the right amount of time. Our guide was prepared and did his best to provide us with cultural and historical information despite the circumstances. He guided us in a kind and calm manner. Considering the Sri Lankan driving we felt safe with him, even though the last 100 km drive home took us nearly 3 hours, we didn't want any more bends and curves!”
