"Tim was great. Knowledgeable. Cheeky. Motivating. It was a wonderful tour. We could have talked for hours. This is the exact reason small groups are the best. One on one, non scripted information from a dedicated and knowledgeable professional. Thank you, Tim."
“William literally writes the book(s) on the D-Day memorials which led to an incredibly informative day tour. From age 77 to 11, we were all captivated by his knowledge and his ability to connect the dots.”
“Fantastic way to learn or refresh your understanding of key aspects of Britain’s history. One of the great things about a Context private tour is tailoring your experience to your group's interests. This was our third Context tour and we’re 3 for 3 for top shelf guides - highly recommended!"
