A lovely day in the English countryside. - Our tour guide Saul was extremely knowledgeable and provided tips on where to eat as well as historical information about the sites. Lovely Christmas markets at almost every destination. Would’ve loved to have gone inside the facilities and halls at Oxford, but they were not open to the public. Motor coach was brand new and very comfortable. Recommend!!

A delicious buffet sampler of British delights - This tour is a buffet sampler of British delights: a 900-year-old castle, ancient but lively university town, Shakespeare's charming birthplace and a drive through thatched-roof cottages in the Cotswolds. Our guide Robert was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and fun -- we all learned so much. And the bus driver (Ahmad? -- sorry we are not sure of the spelling of his name) was sure-footed and friendly despite traffic and bad weather. Thank you both!

ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE - We were lucky to have nice weather the day we went on tour. First stop was the Warwick Castle which had an extensive history we got to learn about along with great views of the lands. Stratford-upon-Avon and the house of Shakespeare was a quick walk through which left us with plenty of time to get something to eat and check out shops along the street. It was starting to get dark once we reached Oxford but personally I liked that better for photo taking. We didn't get to go into too many of the college buildings but still visited great architectural sites with history.

Saul is a Great tour guide! - Our guide, Saul, was great. He was very thoughtful . Gave us distinct instructions and reassured us with his phone number in case things went wrong for us. He was very thorough. I would have liked to additional historical facts and stories along the tour. More entertaining filler. That is based on tours I've had with Viking cruises. These tours may have be more expensive or maybe had a specific customer base in mind, I'm just saying . Saul was a terrific guide nevertheless. I loved his style and excitement. The timeframe for each stop was perfect also.
