You might, for example, wish to combine a visit to Stonehenge with a visit to the ancient stone circles of Avebury and to the City of Salisbury with its fine medieval cathedral. You may want to explore some of the charming villages and the beautiful countryside to be found in the Cotswolds. Along the way, you're free to stop anywhere that catches your interest - it's your holiday after all!

Perhaps you already know where you'd like to visit, but if you need help in planning your day, please get in touch with David's Day Tours and we can help you to make the most of your day.

We'll collect you from your London hotel in the morning at a time to suit you, and then return you to your hotel or other location of choice in the evening. If you'd like a very early morning start, that's no problem. Half day and multi-day tours are also available.

If you have any other requirements you'd like to discuss, we are pleased to be of assistance.

Remember, it's YOUR day for YOU to decide when and where to go.

My husband I went to the UK on our first overseas trip in May and June. We planned to visit our ancestory places after doing an intensive coach tour. We booked David's Day Tours before we left Australia. David made it easy for us to do that and pay a deposit on line. As our ancestors villages were out of the way places, we asked David if he would take us on a single day trip for Cliff's ancestors, to Hellions Bumpstead. David had not been there himself, but made it seem easily accessible and allowed us plenty of time to attend the church, where Cliff's grandparents were married. David gave us time  to take photos and meet the Vicar and the warden, and wait while we were able to search church records after the service.  Nothing was rushed. David is a really friendly, patient and knowledgable person. He  then suggested places of interest for us to see. Once he discovered our interests of aircraft and vintage cars, he used the rest of the day to take us to Duxford Air Museum, and we had the added bonus of a war military display on at the time. We were able to see and go through a Concord, amazing. 

Our next trip was a two day trip with David to North Huish and Lupridge farm, Bigbury and Bigbury-on-Sea, none of which David had been to himself. Again David found the places with ease, and the lovely B&B where we stayed way out in the country of Kingsbridge. After visiting and many stops for photos, visiting churches and walks through cemetries, David took us back to our hotel in London. He took us to some amazing places on the way back including the Beuileui National Car Museum, the largest in the UK. A highlight of the tour. These were lovely surprises that David suggested, that we had no idea of, and which we thoroughly enjoyed. 

We would unreservedly recommend to anyone wanting a special tour, or something extra ordinary, with a really nice guy, go with David's Day Tours.  Kindest Regards,

Ruth and Cliff. Australia, July 2014

I am writing to say thank you for your driving, tour assistance and company during the 3 days that you drove us around the area. We travel often and made many travel related arrangements over the years. Few have, from our perspective, worked out as well as yours! A.B, California, November 2012

About The Tour

London has a history spanning 2000 years and is one of the most exciting cities on earth. Your personal guide will bring the history alive as they regale you with some of its many fascinating tales.

See Buckingham Palace, the residence of His Majesty King Charles III and watch the centuries old Changing of the Guard ceremony (the guard change does not happen every day out of summer season, see Changing of the Guard schedule ).

Choose to take a stroll with your guide through the beautiful Royal St James’s Park, with a fascinating array of birds and its pretty lake past the residence of Prince Charles and St James’s Palace, built for King Henry VIII to the Horse Guards Parade, where you can view the Household Cavalry guarding the entrance to the Palace precincts.

Continue your panoramic, viewing Downing Street, the home of our Prime Ministers, since the very first! See the incredible architecture of Westminster Palace, better known as the Houses of Parliament and the clock Tower affectionately known as Big Ben, but what really is Big Ben? 

On to the splendid Westminster Abbey - every coronation since 1066 has taken place on a church on this spot, the current church dating back to the 13th century. Learn which monarchs were never crowned and why! There are over 3000 burials within and the church is packed to the rafters with exciting stories and some very surprising ones too! (You may choose to skip those long lines and visit inside the Abbey with your British Tours guide. Entrance fees apply).

Then take in some views of the river Thames and the world’s tallest cantilevered observation wheel, the London Eye, as you head to the absolute centre of London, Trafalgar Square, dominated by a statue of Lord Admiral Nelson, the victor of the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. Here the amusing story of how Nelson was returned to England after his death at the battle he won!  Book Now

Venture further west, to view the world’s most famous department store Harrods; Kensington Palace, the birthplace of Queen Victoria and now home to William and Kate; the incredible memorial commissioned by Queen Victoria for her beloved husband and the wonderful museums and the largest of London’s Royal Parks, Hyde Park.

On to the heart of London’s buzzing West End, Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square, China Town, Soho and Covent Garden. Covent Garden makes an excellent lunch stop, providing a wide variety of small historic cafes and the more fancy restaurants. (Lunch not included).

The afternoon takes you to the oldest part of London, the City, with the magnificent masterpiece St Paul’s Cathedral, built after the Great Fire of London and one of the most stunning buildings in the world. This awe-inspiring monument can also be visited with your British Tours guide and if you are feeling energetic, you can climb the 376 steps of the Dome for unparalleled views across the City’s skyline. 

Choose to meander a little through the city’s narrow streets and alleyways, where the old meets the new, view a 200 year old Roman temple, bombed out churches and little squares and a delightful Victorian marketplace, that will be very familiar to any Harry Potter fans! 

Your wonderful day draws to a close as you continue to the Tower of London, with over 900 years of history within its walls. Three Queens of England lost their heads inside and two Kings of England were murdered here. Opt to visit inside with your guide to see the priceless crown jewels and hear fascinating tales of murder, escape, torture and even birds, who protect the Tower and in turn the monarchy from crumbling! You will also see the spectacular Tower Bridge, London Bridge and the Monument to the Great Fire of London.

This tour truly has it all and is ideal for individuals, families and groups. Please speak to our dedicated tour planning team to tailor your day, discuss your options and help us to provide you with the most incredible day out in this city that we love. Our tours are flexible, and the more we know about you, the better we can select the perfect guide and perfect tour!

If you are short of time, no problem, just let us know how long you have and we will do the rest.

For regular visitors to London , we can suggest special interest ideas like London’s Villages, Legal London including the Temples & Inns of Court, Churchill's Cabinet War Rooms, The Barbican, John Wesley's House, The East End, London’s Markets, London’s Stately Homes, Notting Hill, Residential London and so much more. Also see our private London Walks for some great off-the-beaten-track tours.

Timings : 7 hours is recommended for an in-depth tour with visits inside one or two of your preferred attractions. 5 hours recommended for a panoramic tour with a visit inside one attraction. A 3 hour tour is recommended for panoramic sightseeing with photo stops. Some of the most popular sites to visit inside are:- The Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, The Cabinet War Rooms, St Paul’s Cathedral and The London Eye.

Skomer Island, a breeding ground for an assortment of sea birds, including delightful puffins. The island is protected, as there are currently no serious predators, which makes it perfect for the ground-nesting puffins. Visitors can come for the day, and numbers are controlled, but the puffins didn`t seem alarmed to see us. I`d say they spent as much time watching the visitors with interest as we spent watching and being charmed by their antics and funny little noises - ever heard a puffin? In the top right first photo I seem to have caught a puffin approaching the cliff top to land - I tried several times to capture them arriving or leaving but only managed it by accident. I watched another misjudge it slightly and skid into another puffin, to the surprise of both. The sun shone all day, and my nose is as red as a puffin`s beak 🤣 #puffins #skomerisland #visitwales #pembrokecoast #seabirds #explorebritain #explorebritainwithme #driverguide #privatetour #privatetourguide #britainsbestguides #tourlondonandbeyond

Aberglasney garden in Wales, celebrating the 25th anniversary of its rescue and recreation. And one of my clients demonstrating the scale of the Gunera.

Sissinghurst & Great Dixter gardens both retain some of their old farm buildings. In the photos, these are oast houses, a type of local traditional building in which hops were dried. Hops were an important flavouring ingredient for brewing beer, and were once grown extensively in the south east of England. Not any more. I still see some in the fields, but most oast houses have long since fallen out of use, and many have been converted into `character` homes. #sissinghurst #greatdixter #kent #sussex #southeastengland #ruralengland #traditionalagriculture #oasthouses #hops #brewingbeer #greatgardens #englishgardens #englishgardenstyle #gardentourism #gardentour #visitgardens #exploreengland #discoverengland #privatetour #privatetourguide #driverguide #britainsbestguides #tourlondonandbeyond

is there any bus from Paddington to Windsor castle and Windsor castle back to Paddington? thanks

10 replies to this topic

https://www.rct.uk/visit/windsor-castle##times

There is a bus but it departs from Victoria and as you are staying near Paddington it would make more sense to take the train. Easy change at Slough - https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/

St George’s Chapel is open on Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday but it is not part of the visit on Sunday, when it is only open for worship so you won't be able to wander around.

We took the train from Paddington to Windsor a couple of weeks ago. There’s an easy change at Slough…. Slough is a small station and it’s well marked and Windsor Central station is very near the castle. NB there's also no Changing the Guard on Sundays in Windsor either.

I understand St George’s Chapel is not accessible during Sunday. i want to see jewelry and art gallery of Windsor Castle not chapel. The bus from Victoria is at Sunday afternoon. so probably return at Victoria at evening

See the timetable at https://www.reading-buses.co.uk/services/RBUS/702?date=2024-06-02&direction=inbound

The train from Paddington station to Windsor & Eton Central station with the easy change of train at Slough station will take as little as 30-40 minutes. The off peak day return fare by train is £14.20 per adult, you can buy tickets on the day at the station so no need to book.

Contactless is accepted on this route and is £7.10 each way in off peak times, Sunday is off peak all day.

Tripadvisor staff removed this post because it did not meet Tripadvisor's forum posting guidelines with prohibiting self-promotional advertising or solicitation.

#6 fails to mention…..

The train from Paddington requires a change of trains at Slough but it is still quicker than the train from Waterloo to Riverside station - which would not require you to change trains

You would need to walk very slowly to cover Windsor and Eton Central to the castle is anything more than about 7 minutes…….

Tripadvisor staff has removed this post because it did not meet Tripadvisor's forum guidelines with regards to off-topic chat.

Take note that if you are visiting Sunday afternoon, the last admission time is 4pm with the castle closing at 5:15.

OP you mentioned wanting to see jewelry.

To see the Royal Art Gallery, visit the Kings Gallery in London .

Royal Mail's incoming owner has refused to rule out stamp price hikes under his leadership. 

In fact, Czech billionaire Daniel Kretinsky seemed to suggest there might be more increases to come. 

"I can't make unconditional commitments," he told The Times when questioned on the topic. 

"[If] your circulation is 50% of what it was … you either need to go home, or you need to increase the unit price and hope that people will pay for it. Because if not, you are making losses.

"You can be loss-making for a year or two, but you can't be in a loss for 20 years. It's simple maths. There's no mystery to it." 

First class stamp prices have more than doubled since 2018 from 67p to £1.35. 

The businessman, nicknamed the Czech Sphinx, had his £3.6bn offer accepted by the postal service's parent company, International Distribution Services, last week. 

It said the agreement included a series of "contractual commitments" to protect public service aspects of the Royal Mail - such as its universal service obligation to "one-price-goes-anywhere" first-class post six days a week.

Many were shocked by the deal, with Royal Mail reporting losses of £1m a day in recent years. 

You can read more about the Czech Sphinx below...

A major error that meant 500,000 families did not receive their scheduled child benefit today has been "fixed", HMRC has said.

In a post on X, HMRC said affected families would get the money on Wednesday morning, two days after the payments were due...

Multiple readers have got in touch to say they had been affected by the problem, which meant almost a third of payments scheduled for today were not made.

Reader Susan1984 said: "When should we expect to receive the missing payment? This has left not just me but so many more families with kids completely stuck for food and fuel this morning."

Earlier, HMRC apologised and said it was working urgently to resolve the issue, which would not affected payments scheduled for tomorrow (see post at 14.41).

Child benefit is usually paid every four weeks on a Monday or a Tuesday at a rate of £25.60 for an eldest or only child and £16.95 for each additional child.

The bank has today announced wholesale rate hikes across its residential and buy-to-let mortgage product ranges. 

The new rates, which come into effect tomorrow, will be applied largely across its two, three and five-year fixed rates for purchase and remortgage. 

However, a number of rates available to existing HSBC customers looking to switch will also see increases. 

Brokers say more lenders could increase rates this week. 

This is thanks to an uptick in swap rates due to hopes fading for a cut to the base rate set by the Bank of England in June. 

Here is what some industry insiders told Newspage...

The dreaded 'higher for longer' scenario is no longer a mere notion: it's the harsh reality for many. It looks like these elevated rates are here to stay for the foreseeable future. Ranald Mitchell, director at Charwin Private Clients

We can now expect more awkward conversations with clients who have read that rates are coming down and inflation is under control. HSBC have been fairly competitive recently so the hope is that they just need to turn the tap off a little to catch up and this isn't an upward trend that will continue into the summer period. David Stirling, independent financial advisor at Mint Mortgages and Protection

HSBC is one of several lenders to already have announced changes this week. Even with the higher rates on offer, I would not suggest waiting in the hope of a drop any time soon. My advice to borrowers is take control of the situation and start the process of arranging a new deal as early as possible, secure a rate and, if a better one materialises, change to it. Simon Bridgland, broker/director at Release Freedom

Child benefit payments have not arrived on time for approximately half a million people.

Almost a third of payments scheduled for today were not made - and we've had multiple readers get in touch to say they've been impacted.

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has apologised and said it is working urgently to resolve the issue.

"We're sorry that some customers' child benefit payments have not arrived as scheduled and we are working urgently to resolve the issue," said an HMRC spokesperson.

"The issues that caused payment problems today will not impact payments scheduled for tomorrow."

Child benefit is usually paid every four weeks on a Monday or a Tuesday at a rate of £25.60 for an eldest or only child and £16.95 per additional child.

Some people may receive the benefit weekly, for example if they are a single parent or receiving certain other benefits, such as universal credit.

HMRC added on X that there was "no need for customers to call us" and it will provide updates on the social media platform.

As of August 2023, 6.91 million families were in receipt of child benefit payments.

Reader Sam E said: "No warning, complete denial, no update, just endless worry for those who rely on the benefit. The denial in particular is an insult. How long will it be until it's sorted?"

Last week, the Scottish Parliament passed a bill meaning local authorities can set an additional charge for overnight accommodation. 

For tourists heading to Scotland, that means an extra fee for staying hotels, bed and breakfasts and holiday lets.

According to Visitor Levy (Scotland) Bill, the fee will be a percentage of the cost of a hotel or other room.

For instance, a 1% levy on a £200 booking means a visitor would pay £2 in tourist tax.

We asked our followers in LinkedIn if the tourist tax would put them off visiting the country. 

The majority of them (59%) said it wouldn't stop them from taking a trip there - but 41% would think twice.

Any charges or levies are not expected to come into effect until spring 2026, as councils need to consult local businesses before carrying out an 18-month implementation period.

Those receiving disability benefits will not pay any charges, with children and young people also exempt.

Manchester, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole already charge people to stay the night. 

Manchester's £1-a-night City Visitor Charge was introduced last April, and is estimated to have raised around £2.8m in its first year.

European hotspots like Barcelona and Venice also have tourist taxes, with the Spanish city charging visitors €3.25 if they're staying in official accommodation.

Your comments on LinkedIn :

"We love Scotland (I'm a Scot) but live close enough to drive up and do some shopping and stay over for a meal etc and we do so perhaps every six weeks or so. So I'm now classed as a 'tourist' even though I spend about £200 on a room - perhaps another £200 quid on a meal and drinks etc etc - not to mention the money we spend in the shops. And they want to charge us both £2.50 a night?" Paul Mclean

Many countries apply tourist taxes, so why should Scotland be any different?The big questions, for me, are how will the money be spent? Will it be spent directly benefiting the city or just vanish into government coffers? The other is who counts as a tourist. A foreign national visiting from a country outside of the UK would seem a sensible definition, but to charge domestic visitors would probably be shootings themselves in the foot somewhat. Scott Taylor-Barr

From my experience, Edinburgh is already one of the most expensive cities to visit. Greig Cahill

Hopefully the contributions are put towards the development of tourism, and/or will be used in the right ways. From my experience working in France, French nationals are very accepting of the tourist tax and in France, I see the logic in it. Let's hope it works... 🤞🏻 Jennifer Wightman

Virgin Atlantic has launched the first flight of its new service from Manchester to Las Vegas today. 

It makes Manchester Airport the only place outside of London to offer direct flights to America's west coast. 

Virgin Atlantic already has a daily connection to Sin City from London Heathrow, but launched the new route to support strong customer demand in the North West. 

It marks the airline's fourth service from Manchester to the US, building on established services of Orlando, New York and Atlanta. 

"Few places sum up the glitz and glamour of international travel like Las Vegas. Giving passengers in the North the opportunity to fly there directly and experience everything it has to offer is a real game-changer," Chris Woodroofe, managing director at Manchester Airport said. 

The launch has been marked with showgirls joining the flight's cabin crew and welcoming flyers at the check-in desk. 

Flight VS85 on an A350-1000 departed Manchester Airport at 9.50am. 

Rolex has increased the price of some of its watches in the UK after the cost of gold surged. 

The leading luxury watch manufacturer has hiked some prices by as much as 4%. 

One of its most famous pieces, the Daytona chronograph, will now cost you £38,700 - up from £37,200. 

The price of a yellow golf GMT Master II has also increased from £34,000 to £35,400. 

That's according to information on its UK website, which is tracked by Bloomberg. 

Typically, Rolex raises prices for its watches annually in January.

It increased prices in the UK by about 4% for some models at that time but left US prices unchanged.

It comes after the price of gold reached record highs earlier this year, coming in at £1,932.44 per ounce in April. 

Increased prices isn't the only thing that makes buying a Rolex difficult, though. 

Despite high prices, waiting lists for them have been rising, according to Watches of Switzerland. 

Some waiting lists can be years long, which is part of the reason they are so exclusive.

So even if you have a spare £35,000, you might still find it difficult to actually get your hands on one.

Eyes were fixed on the London Stock Exchange today for detail on a company that isn't even listed. 

Chinese-founded fast fashion giant Shein is set to publicly list in London, according to Sky's Mark Kleinman , a move that would make it the most high-profile public flotation for more than a decade and the second biggest initial public offering (IPO) in the history of the London Stock Exchange.  

A company "floats" when it offers shares on a stock market - comes into public shareholder ownership from being private - with an IPO being the first time shares are publicly available for purchase. 

There was no update posted this morning, but an announcement could come later this week or month. 

Drugs company GSK is the worst performer of the morning with its share price down 9.4% following news it will face jury trials in claims by thousands of people with cancer who say a heartburn drug it developed, Zantac, caused their illness.

Sterling buys €1.1714, down from the 19-month high of last week. Another high could be reached as the European Central Bank will likely cut interest rates on Thursday. One pound equals $1.2732.

A barrel of Brent crude, the benchmark oil price, is $81.43, low by the standards of the past three months. 

GameStop shares have surged after a Reddit account that drove the 2021 meme stock mania shared its position in the video game retailer. 

The chain's shares were 90% higher at $46 each as of 9.11am after Keith Gill, who goes by DeepF------Value on Reddit and Roaring Kitty on YouTube and X, reappeared online on Sunday night. 

He posted a screenshot of what appeared to be his portfolio holding a significant amount of GameStop common shares and call options. 

Reminder: A call option is basically a contract which allows a buyer to purchase stock at a specific price until a certain date. 

The Reddit trading crowd's favourite trader holds five million shares of GameStop worth $115.7m as of Friday's closing price, according to the account screenshot. 

The account also showed a position of 120,000 call options in GameStop with a strike price of $20 that expire on 21 June that were purchased for about $5.68 each.

GameStop shares closed Friday at $23.14.

Mr Gill's first return to social media three weeks ago sparked an eye-popping rally in GameStop with shares more than doubling in May alone.

At the time, he simply posted a picture of a man in a chair leaning forward, but that was enough to trigger a buying frenzy among amateur traders.

The investor was a former marketer for Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance.

In 2021, through YouTube videos and Reddit posts, he encouraged a band of retail traders to squeeze out short selling hedge funds in GameStop.

The action got so wild at one point that brokers had to restrict trading in the stock as it blew up their clearing house margin.

We've all learned how to be more conservative with our money amid an increase in the cost of living - but it's still important to treat ourselves now and again.

And there's some science behind that happy feeling you get when you make a new purchase, as  consumer psychologist Dr Cathrine Jansson-Boyd  explains in the first of four features on the psychology of shopping running this week.

What happens to our brains?

When we buy something, our brain releases endorphins and dopamine. Such a release can give us a sense of pleasure, albeit momentarily, Dr Jansson-Boyd says.

You might be more likely to continue buying things if you think that temporary feeling of pleasure is important, she adds, though she notes for some even just the experience of shopping can trigger the dopamine, without anything being bought.

Buying sale items increases dopamine

Dr Jansson-Boyd says purchasing items at a reduced price can increase your dopamine level.

When shoppers see a product they like with a price they perceive as "fair", they experience a level of satisfaction in the part of the brain associated with the anticipation of pleasure, she explains.

However, if the price is perceived as "unfair", the insula - a part of the brain that registers pain - is typically activated.

The negative impact of dopamine

It's also important to note dopamine can have negative influence on spending behaviours, Dr Jansson-Boyd says. 

For example, when buying chocolates, the release of dopamine generates what can be thought of as a reward-seeking loop. 

This means that a person experiences repeated craving of a dopamine rush and repeatedly buys chocolates to experience the dopamine rush. This can lead to unwanted spending. 

"As you can imagine, such 'craving' can also lead to fairly serious consequences if the spending is done on gambling or drugs," she adds.

So are there 'healthier' alternatives to get that release? 

As Dr Jansson-Boyd mentioned previously, window shopping can trigger a surge of dopamine without you needing to buy anything.

Other non-shopping activities such as eating healthily and listening to your favourite music can also trigger a similar release, she says.

Can you get out of chasing the dopamine rush? 

Being aware is a good start, says Dr Jansson-Boyd, as it may "put the brakes on the shopping".

But she notes that if the chasing of dopamine becomes an obsession, then seeking professional help is best as the consequences can be "serious".

"However, if it is not of a serious nature then training yourself to think pragmatically about the shopping helps. 

"For example, if you find that you are keen on 'special offers', then make sure you are equipped with information about whether you are getting a genuine bargain," she says.

She also recommends taking a step back, going for a cup of tea or visiting another shop every time you see something you want to buy.

Dr Jansson-Boyd says: "If you still want to go back to the item, perhaps you really do want it. However, in many cases you will find that you forget about it entirely or that you are not that fussed."

Capital to host dedicated Taylor Swift radio station as Eras Tour lands in UK

The new station will allow fans of the pop star, known as swifties, the chance to listen to their favourite artist all day..

Capital Radio has launched a pop-up station dedicated to all things Taylor Swift ahead of the pop superstar kicking off the UK leg of her Eras tour.

The US singer, 34, will perform for three consecutive nights at Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh, from Friday before moving to Liverpool, Cardiff and London.

The new station will allow fans of the pop star, known as Swifties, the chance to listen to their favourite artist all day “until its So Long, London”.

Once upon a time, the planets and the fates and the stars aligned… and ✨Capital (Taylor’s Version)✨ was born 🤩 @taylorswift13 | The Eras Tour is coming to the UK, and to celebrate we’re playing Taylor’s biggest tracks 24/7 on our dedicated Swift music station! Listen now on… pic.twitter.com/mc6WjXn178 — Capital (@CapitalOfficial) June 3, 2024

Capital (Taylor’s Version) will play hits from across her 11 studio album, as well as offering trivia on the artist.

The station will also provide updates on Swift as she tours across the UK and will speak with fans before and after the shows to hear all the details on the experience.

Capital has said it is the first time in the UK that a national DAB radio station has been dedicated to a single artist.

Managing editor of Capital Brent Tobin said: “We were so excited to create this pop up radio station to celebrate Taylor Swift.

“It’s set to be a fan favourite, with not only the greatest songs, but top trivia and tour news.

“We’ll be on air until it’s So Long, London and we hope all the Swifties join us for the ultimate tour celebration.”

The Grammy-winning artist launched her marathon Eras tour March last year and she is set to perform 152 shows by the time she finishes in December 2024.

In honour of Swift’s tour coming to Liverpool, the city has created a special Taylor Town Trail which will feature 11 art installations that are inspired by the studio albums from her back catalogue.

After Edinburgh, Swift will play three nights at Liverpool’s Anfield Stadium and one night at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.

From June 21 to 23 she will take over London’s Wembley Stadium, before later returning to the venue in August to play a further five shows.

Capital (Taylor’s Version) will be available on DAB digital radio and on Global Player.
