“A really great option to see the Cotswolds without a car especially with how difficult these towns are to get to via public transport. We had ample amount of time to see each town and didn’t feel rushed except for lunch at Bibury where we only had 20 minutes to see the village because the same amount of time was allocated to those wanted lunch and those who opted out. James was a very informative guide and Joanne was a great driver.”

Our guide, Mike, was professional, knowledgeable, and shared not just insights about the region but also helpful tips about London. The tour was very well organized, and the time allocated to explore each town was perfect for grabbing food, drinks, and taking photos. The only downside was that we couldn’t visit Bibury, the town we were most excited about, due to road closures and weekend crowds. It would have been great to be informed about this in advance or to substitute a bigger town instead of some smaller, less touristy…”

The drive to the Cotswolds was also great and had some time in a couple of villages. All in all a fabulous day.”
