It was great, with a broad overview of England history, of both the personal and governmental life of the Royals. - The tour was great! Dan did an excellent job sharing extensive history of the Royals, their homes, and some of the more interesting sidelights (murders, affairs, etc!) of England's history. He was able to communicate clearly (both my wife and I have hearing aids and we often ask for repeated comments), including with the couple from France whose English was good, but not great. Dan handled questions well, and accommodated us with a break at the mid-point. Though we had some iffy weather, we managed to avoid putting up our umbrellas very much at all. A highlight was finishing just at the point of hearing Big Ben and the Westminster chimes.
