Downton Abbey Tour

Downton Abbey Tour

Become Lord or Lady Grantham for the day as we visit the film locations used for ITV’s popular period drama on the Downton Abbey Tour.

On this day long TV Tour you will travel by luxury mini coach tour from London to visit the charming Oxfordshire village that was used as Downton Village, see an Edwardian railway and explore Highclere locations that was used for Downton Abbey and its beautiful grounds. Learn about the 1000 year history of Highclere Castle and life ‘above and below stairs’.

You’ll be able to wander around the estate run by fictional character Lord Grantham. We will visit the ‘Above Stairs’ part of Downton Abbey where you will be able to imagine life as it was over 100 years ago and enter the world of the aristocratic Crawley family and their servants.

Get fascinating anecdotes about how the ITV series was made, the actors involved and the wonderful history of the places we visit on the tour. There will be plenty of opportunities to take pictures and explore the film locations throughout the day. The Downton Abbey Tour will end at Gloucester Rd Station.
