A must-do for Tudorphiles - I recently had the absolute pleasure of taking a private, specialised tour of Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace with Sarah, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. As a Tudor enthusiast who’s devoured every book, documentary, podcast, and blog I can get my hands on, I honestly didn’t expect to learn THAT much more — but Sarah completely blew me away. Her depth of knowledge of the Tudor period is nothing short of extraordinary. She didn’t just know the facts; she had an expert-level understanding that brought the story of Anne Boleyn vividly and powerfully to life in both locations. From the hidden corners of Hampton Court to the layers of symbolism at Windsor, her insight into the history of place was captivating and consistently surprising — the kind of rich, textured storytelling that made even familiar stories feel brand new. Sarah was also incredibly kind and thoughtful, going out of her way to make sure I found the meeting points easily and felt comfortable and looked after throughout the day. Her passion, professionalism, and deep respect for the subject matter truly elevated the entire experience. If you’re even remotely interested in Tudor history — and especially if you’re already obsessed — book this tour. Sarah is the real deal.

Incredible knowledge, incredible fun, worth every penny - Sarah is a fantastic guide. Her knowledge is exquisite. Her tours are like walking around with a historian, because she is one due to her certification and training, plus prior experience, with all things English history. Her timing is impeccable and she's a pleasure to be with. 3 hours flies by and your head is left with immense knowledge making you want to do another tour. We will be booking her again for another tour of another fabulous Crown castle.

The ONLY way to see Windsor inside and out! - Sarah was an absolute delight, and this tour was the ONLY way to see Windsor from top to bottom. The state rooms were had more intimate feel than Buckingham Palace but still with the expected “wow factor”. Sarah was one of the most personable guides we had in the UK, and we cannot wait to recommend her and this specific tour to friends who are planning trips!
