Amazing Day visiting the Cotswolds - We had an outstanding experience on our Cotswolds tour with Graham as our driver. From the moment he picked us up in Windsor, everything was seamlessly arranged. Graham's expertise and personable approach made the day exceptional. Our journey began with a visit to the picturesque Castle Combe, followed by the charming village of Bibury. We continued to the delightful Bourton-on-the-Water, the beautiful Slaughters (both Upper and Lower), and drove through the historic Burford. Our tour concluded with a visit to Minster Lovell, showcasing the best of the Cotswolds. Graham executed our planned itinerary flawlessly, and we appreciated his smooth driving throughout the day. At the end of the tour, he kindly dropped us off at our Heathrow airport hotel as requested. It was a perfect day filled with stunning scenery and enriching experiences—highly recommended!

Fantastic, highly recommended, tour and guide! - Amazing trip. Ian picked us up from Southampton port and took us on a wonderful trip to Stonehenge and then to Bath. He was super knowledgeable and was a ton of fun! He suggested his favorite local lunch place in Bath and we ate our first truly British meal. Needless to say it was delicious! It was truly a wonderful day! Would highly recommend Ian for your trip!

Excellent Visit of Northern Cotswolds with Ian - My husband & I visited on May 20, 2024 with Ian & we had an excellent experience! Ian was very knowledgeable & professional! Since we were staying at a hotel in Stratford-upon-Avon, we visited the Northern Cotswolds with its picturesque villages, market towns & buildings made from the local Cotswold stone. Ian made the tour very interesting blending a mix of driving & walking per our preference, answering any questions we might have, allowing time to take photos & taking photos of us. We highly recommend the tour & Ian. Thank you, Ian!!

We Discovered the Cotswolds - We had a wonderful day in the Cotswolds with Jo. Such a pleasure to travel with her through the area and modify our itinerary as the conditions dictated. Jo provided great insight into the villages we visited and made sure we experienced the very best of the region. On our next visit to England we will certainly give some other areas a try with her.

A lovely day in the Cotswolds - I have always wanted to visit the Cotswolds and our tour guide JO ( JOANNA) didn't disappoint. It was a small group and we went to some out of the way places. Jo was very pleasant and entertaining. We learned a lot about what we were seeing. I felt we have sufficient time out of the van but yet covered a fair amount of territory. We saw a lot!!!!

Beautiful Cotswold personalized tour! - Ian was very easy and helpful to work with from the time we booked our reservation and making recommendations on the schedule based on our groups preferences. He met us at the Oxford train station since we were traveling from London for the day. He helped us have a smooth day from start to finish without the worries of renting a car. He had great historic information about each village and had great suggestions on places to get tea/ coffee and lunch. We saw four towns, side stops to see a rock circle, and Oxford. We travelled with two families with teens who all really enjoyed the tour. We would do again and recommend to anyone desiring a smaller guided tour.

Wonderful Cotswolds day trip - Our tour guide was knowledgeable and organized. We enjoyed the trip and loved the small villages she showed us. It was nice to avoid the hassle of big tour buses and travel by minivan.
