Once in a lifetime experiences, that'll you'll want to repeat!

When Philippa started British History Tours in 2014 it was with a vision of providing the ultmate history travel experiences. She envisaged taking history lovers to the places where history happened and taking care of everything from accommodation to transport, admissions and expert guides and talks from eminent historians. It would be luxury all the way so that guests could enjoy their immersive experience well fed and rested!

These would be once-in-a-lifetime experiences!

But then, guests would ask "what tours have you got next year? We want to come back!"

Our rebooking rate is anow round 70%, with some guests returning in 2026 for their 5th or 6th tour!

You don't have to take our word for it, please feel free to take time to see what our customers say about their experiences.
