Beautiful Cotswolds Villages - I went by train from London to Oxford and it was very easy. I absolutely loved this small group tour, Just 6 people and the tour guide with his assistant. The tour guide was great. He had so much knowledge and such passion for all the information!

Cotswolds Adventure - Superior tour...hit so many small out of the way places that you could only get to with a car. A great tour for history buffs. Our guide Andrew was knowledgeable and could answer questions easily. He was so very personable....Do Not Miss this tour!

Wonderful Tour of the Cotswolds - I want to thank Ian, for giving us a wonderful day and tour of the Cotswolds. I travelled with friends and all three of us agree that it was one of the best tours we have been on. Ian was friendly, knowledgeable and flexible. We were given plenty of time to explore the wonderful villages of the Cotswolds and never felt rushed or hassled. Ian has such a knowledge and love of the area and this definitely came through. All together worth every penny and more, I would highly recommend this tour. Thank you again, Ian from Joanne, Valerie and Debra.

An off-the beaten path small group tour of the Cotswolds! - We had a wonderful tour! Ian was a friendly and knowledgeable guide who took us off the beaten path to small and special places (as well as the more well-known ones). He told entertaining stories about the history and landscape of the area, which felt very authentic as he is a resident himself. We loved that this was a small group tour (just seven us of in a van), which gave us a more intimate experience and more access to some of the more unique places. It was a great mix of time together and free time to explore. Highly recommend!

Amazing Day in the Cotswolds. - This tour was perfect. Ian was a fantastic guide. Very knowledgeable and had a great personality. With only one day to spend in the Cotswolds I felt like we got the best possible. Our small group allowed us to see villages that were less crowded. We had a wonderful day.

Cotswolds Villages tour with Ian - It was our first tour in rural England and it became an amazing experience: beautiful landscapes, quaint villages and churches with rich history. Our extremely forthcoming guide Ian struck the right balance between giving detailed description of things we see and allowing for the time we could spend independently for walks, shop browsing etc. We especially enjoyed our walk along the Windrush river in Minster Lowell (see the photo).

Fast paced, not for everyone but condensed view of the Cotswold - Seven towns in seven hours, with a stop for lunch. Had to move along quickly. Great for an overall experience. Not for anyone who wants to stroll or stop for a pint. Driver was informative. Car was not the cleanest
