Wonderful Day in the English Countryside - Our guide and driver were excellent. "D" and "V" were wonderful. "D" gave us lots of details and local history about the places we visited. Unfortunately, these kinds of tours are a bit rushed so there is not enough time to see everything. The Cotswolds are beautiful. The Shakespeare museum is wonderful as is Anne Hathaway's Cottage.

A Fun (but rushed) Tour - Great experience with a friendly driver and helpful tour guide. My only complaint is that we didn't have enough time in Burton on the Water and Stratford Upon Avon.

Lovely day in The Cotswalds - I had wanted to visit the Cotswalds and specifically Stratford Upon Avon because my father worked in tourism and lived there years ago. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed all that we saw!

Nice Trip but some changes would make it better - Visited some interesting sites in England and learned a lot about it's rich history. Only recommendation would. My recommendation for a trip like this would be for the bus to have a bathroom and water be provided for a 2.4 hr ride w no stops

Visited many beautiful places. - Had a great time. Dolly was amazing. Only downside of the trip was the Asian driver, He doesn’t know how to behave with tourists. Very rude and Racist towards his own people. Please train or advise to be neutral for better experience.

Missed opportunity😪 - Missed the tour. People are not forth coming with information. Just a suggestion, give good directions from Victoria station not seven minute walk, I would have taken a taxi from Victoria station to the meeting place. Our mistake for not adding time.

Disappointing - this was cancelled less than 24 hours before the scheduled time.
really disappointing. A heads up couple of days before would have been great.
Refund isn't processed either.
