We had some excellent tours with Ray and have no hesitation in highly recommending his service. He spoke slowly and clearly for us so we could follow and understand everything he told us.

Ray's talks about the history and traditions of his wonderful country were very interesting - we had no idea that there was so much to see and hear about in such a small country but thanks to him we discovered that England has much history and a lot of beautiful scenery.

We enjoyed the tour so much that we want to return to England and do a lot more touring with Ray Ruddick Tours one day.

It was the best tour ever.

Ray was referred to us by mutual friends in Wisconsin, USA. We contacted him and from the very beginning, Ray was very knowledgable but also sensitive to our suggestions and desires. We toured London and its environs with Ray twice, as well a circle tour of Ireland and a trip from Edinburgh to London. Our trips were spectacular, and Ray's care of all the details made our time with him that much more pleasurable. If you are looking for someone who really wants to make your time the best it can be, Ray is the man to call! We hope to be calling him again soon! Tony and Linda Warren

“As a published fine art photographer visiting the U.K., finding a deeply experienced professional driver guide to take me to the best locations through the Cotswolds and English countryside was paramount. I only had one day to take pictures, so I had to make the most of my limited time. After much research and numerous conversations with the best London Blue Badge guides I could find, I settled on Ray Ruddick.

From the moment Ray promptly arrived at my hotel, I knew that my trip was going to be extraordinary. Not only was Ray highly knowledgeable about a vast array of historical and current subject matter, he consistently went out of his way to make sure that my needs were being met. He even brought sandwiches and snacks for me to enjoy! Now that's what I call service!

Aside from being a true gentlemen and scholar, Ray is a genuinely nice guy with a sharp sense of humor and laid back demeanor. Thanks to Ray’s comprehensive knowledge of the countryside and stellar (and extremely safe) driving skills, I was able to cover a lot of ground in one day.

When I visit England with my family in a few years, Ray will be at the top of my list to call. There are so many amazing places in the UK to see, and so many tour options out there to choose from. Sure, you can take a generic bus tour, but it's you and 50 other people jammed on a bus. And you're always rushed. If you're really looking for the "trip of a lifetime," it starts with Ray. He'll take you to places not in the guidebooks (of course, he can always take you to those famous places as well).

I would not hesitate to recommend Ray to anyone looking for the ultimate U.K. driver guide experience—as he is a class act all around.”

We needed a transportation from Stansted airport to Glastonbury , and we wanted "a bit of something more" than just a drive there. Ray was just perfect begining with a grate welcome . He was on time waiting for us with a friendly smile and eventualy he made this trip a happy excursion .He also had grate ideas such us a stop over in Stonehenge for sightseeing and he also had a nice surprise with home-made sandwiches! His services though profesional were at the same time personal in a way that we felt like being with a friend who pampered us . He was n't just a driver and a guide but someone who really cares about the well being of others.Some people are like ambassadors for their country. Well, Ray Ruddick is one of them.
