About Chaucer Tour Private Guided Tours with car and GuideWhatever your interests and whatever you want to you can get so much more out of your trip to the UK with a private guide. Whether you just want a day to take in the major sights in London, or a month long tour of specific sites around the country you can see and do so much more with a private guide and car than is possible in a large group on a coach, or by going it alone.On the following pages are a few sample tours, all based on London, just to give you an idea of what each day can offer.All our guides are specially chosen for their personalities as much as for their knowledge, and all are Members of The Institute of Tourist Guiding, and holders of the prestigious Blue Badge, the most respected qualification in the guiding profession.All our vehicles are late luxury models, and prices are per vehicle, not per person and include all guide and vehicle fees including mileage, tax and insurance. All for as little as £ 350 per day.Please contact us and let us quote for your tailor made sightseeing holiday in the UK25 miles from central London stands Windsor Castle. The largest continiously inhabited castles in Europe, and One of the Queen’s official residences. First constructed before 1100 AD, and much enlarged and improved until a final remodelling in the 1820’s and 30’s. You can tour the State Apartments (still in use for special occasions today) and visit St George’s Chapel. An exquisite example of Perpendicular architecture. Here the Queens’s parents, grand parents and great grandparents are all buried, as are King Henry VIII and King Charles I. After Windsor we take the country roads to Marlow, on the banks of the River Thames, and then up into the Chiltern Hills. A little known area of outstanding natural beauty, small farms, quaint villages, beechwoods and bluebells.From here it is less than 20 Miles to Oxford. City of dreaming spires, the oldest university in the UK. Oxford was at various times home to JRR Tolkein, Charles Dodgson (AKA Lewis Carroll) Margaret Thatcher, Tony Blair, Bill Clinton, and a host of other luminaries. Here are some of the most beautiful buildings in Europe, and a history that stretches back to the mid 13th Century.Follow the route taken by Chaucer’s pilgrims, starting at London bridge, to Canterbury Cathedral to see the shrine of Thomas Becket. A cathedral has stood here since 602AD, the present building dates from 1070 AD in parts, with many later additions including the Bell Harry Tower of 1505 which rises 235 feet above the cathedral and the city and is visible for miles around.Dover Castle, perched on top of the famous white cliffs contains the remains of a Roman lighthouse, a 12th C keep, many buildings from the time of the Napoleonic Wars and a fascinating journey underground to the secret WWII bunkers cut into the cliffs, used a planning centre , a communication HQ and also a wartime hospital. France is only 21 miles away, and can usually be seen from the top of the cliffs.Only got one day? With a private Guide and car or minivan for up to 6/7 people you really can see all the famous sights of London in a day;Buckingham Palace, The Changing of the Guard, The Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Trafalgar Square, The Millennium Bridge, St Paul’s Cathedral, The Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Tate Modern. There will be plenty of time to stop and take photographs whenever you wish, also time for a pub lunch and visits to one or two of the sites mentioned above. Favourite choices are often Westminster Abbey, scene of the coronation of all the Kings and Queens of England ( with 2 exceptions) since 1042AD, also where the Queen was married, where Princess Diana’s funeral was held, as was the funeral of the Queen Mother. Also be sure not to miss the Tower of London. Palace, Mint, Observatory, Armoury, Garrison, Prison , Place of Execution, and Home to the Crown Jewels. A full day tour of London usually costs £ 350.
