My sit down with (History Hit, the Gone Medieval Podcast) at History Festival, is now available on the British History Youtube channel and podcast.
Matt takes us through the misconceptions, originating at the time, of the aims of the uprising. Thought it was simply a violent reaction to a new tax? Well, there was more to it than that?

5 ⭐️ Review from Cheryl Fraser - a guest on The Anne Boleyn Tour, May 2026.
"Where to begin? Well, I had a tour of a lifetime ! It was magical ! A heartfelt thank you to Philippa of British history tours and her team. To say they ticked all the boxes would be an understatement.
If you love history as I do, I Highly recommend this tour.
So thank you Philippa ! Thank you for your guests and authors Elizabeth Norton, Gareth Russell, our guides on our tours Sarah Slater and Will, all the staff during our stay at Hever Castle, our coach driver Terry, I’m missing a name or two...and of course, the weather. The breakfasts and dinners! Delicious! We were spoiled !
In one word , this tour was Perfection 🙏🏼.
I’ll be back 😉"

I could not be happier for my friend and our historian in residence on our tours, Gareth Russell on the upcoming docudrama based in his latest book, ‘Queen James.’

Linlithgow Palace, Scotland
I could have stayed all day here. What an evocative and beautiful place. Even in ruin, it is clear that this was a grand royal residence.
Margaret Tudor, wife of James IV, gave birth to the future James V here, in 1512.
James V’s wife, Mary of Guise, gave birth here in 1542, to a little girl who, 6 days later, would become Mary, Queen of Scots.

“The Anne Boleyn tour was excellent. My husband and I enjoyed every minute. Philippa and Gareth are amazing hosts. The tour is extremely well organised with the very special added bonus of wonderful guest speakers. The star of the show is Hever Castle. A magical place to stay. The accommodation was first class with friendly attentive staff.
Our recommendation is book a British History Tour and enjoy your own little bit of history.”

Safe to say, I’ve covered a lot of ground over the past 6 days!

Do you recognise anywhere?

I’m sad to say farewell to Scotland - but now looking forward to ‘The Royal Scotland Tour’ in October!

Hi from Edinburgh!

I’m currently in Scotland visiting the places we will be going to on ‘The Royal Scotland Tour,’ in October.
I’ll be sharing where i’ve been and some of the stories linked to those places but, after 8 locations in just 2 days, I’m off for an early night!

"Recently had the opportunity to go on the Anne Boleyn Tour. Philippa and Gareth are so knowledgeable and the most patient people with all the questions that we threw at them. I have nothing but great compliments for accommodations, food and friends made on the journey. First class all the way....Thank you Philippa and Gareth, it was a road well taken."
