Excursion d'une journée en petit groupe à Oxford et dans les villages traditionnels des Cotswolds au départ de Londres
Description
Les Cotswolds sont comme entrer dans une peinture de paysage. Couleurs vertes vives, cours d'eau luxuriants et les chalets les plus charmants. Et Oxford n'a pas besoin de présentation. La ville des étudiants, des flèches et des somptueuses cathédrales est aussi inspirante que fascinante. Participez à cette visite de 10 heures en petit groupe et découvrez deux des endroits les plus célèbres d'Angleterre. Le transport entre les attractions est inclus. On peut acheter de la nourriture et des boissons en cours de route.

Itinéraire
Votre premier arrêt est Oxford, où vous avez le temps d'explorer l'enceinte des nombreux collèges, d'escalader l'un des points de vue à admirer dans l'horizon, ou de voir les Collections d'art et d'antiquités dans le Ashmolean Museum. Le choix est à vous. Cette route peut être inversée à certaines occasions.
Notre prochaine étape est à Burford, la « Porte des Cotswolds ». C’est un petit bourg avec un caractère énorme et une histoire immense. La rue principale est bordée de chalets et de propriétés magnifiquement pittoresques. Vous avez le temps d’admirer le charme et l’hospitalité locaux et, si vous avez faim, vous pouvez goûter un thé traditionnel Anglais « Afternoon Tea ». Cette route peut être inversée à certaines occasions.
Enfin, vous faites le court voyage jusqu'à Bibury, décrit par William Morris comme le plus joli village d'Angleterre, et l'endroit que Henry T Ford souhaitait démanteler et expédier aux États-Unis. Ici, nous avons le temps de nous promener devant la célèbre et féerique Arlington Row. Après une journée complète à explorer la ville d’Oxford et les villages des Cotswolds, nous embarquerons pour le confortable voyage de retour vers Londres. Cette route peut être inversée à certaines occasions.

Very long trip, it was so cold and not nice in winter time the villages are empty. We didn’t enjoy it
Excellent tour. Guide was Farhat and he was excellent: knowledgeable, good sense if humor and very concerned about his passengers
Beautiful drive but only very short stays in towns due to traffic and lots of people. Lunch is not included. Bus and guide very good. Bring lots of water for the heat.
Great way to see a few villages in the Cotswolds and Oxford at the same time which is what we wanted to see on a day trip out of London. The self-guided walking tour map of Oxford could have been a little easier to read. And maybe just a little more history commentary. Traffic was a challenge but the driver navigated well.
I was charged twice for this tour as Viator did not confirm my first request and then I used the app to book it again and ended being charged twice. Rabbie’s customer service Camille acknowledged the double booking and double payment and refused any refund.
The Cotswolds and Oxford are parts of England not to be missed! We found Bibury and Burford to be beautiful towns with quaint shops and cafes. Oxford was a much bigger town than I had anticipated and is a hub of activity. There are many historical buildings to admire and shops to visit. We mostly enjoyed the trip, however it felt like we were rushing through the three separate locations with 30 minutes in Bibury, 80 minutes in Burford, and 1 hour 45 min in Oxford it was definitely a small taste of each spot. The tour departed at 9:15am, which in my opinion is an hour too late when getting through London traffic, and the tour ended a bit early to get back to London. This extra bit of time would give a tour taker more opportunity to experience both the Cotswold towns and Oxford. I do appreciate this tour was designed to simply be a taste of a large area, and yes, we do want to visit the region again. Overall, comfortable travel out to the countryside, nice guide, and neat idea to see three separate sights just the timing of things was a bit disappointing.
Because there were problem with the underground, we got to Victoria station at the meeting time. The GPS led us to a wrong place and we have to type in the address instead of the company’s name to get to the right location. I immediately sent an email to the company and by the time we were got there 5 mins late and the coach already took off? Lucky that the coach was heading to my direction so I waved and the driver and he let us on. The rest of the trip was very good as Gabriel was nice and knowledgeable. He gave us good information both about the tourist attractions and practical advice such as where to find foods and toilets. Overall he did a good job. I just hope that in the future, with the confusion of the GPS issue, the company could leave better instructions for the meeting points.
We enjoyed our time very much!! Our guide was so friendly and helpful! He gave us great recommendations on places to get tea, snacks, and routes.
Three stop tour, each stop felt very rushed. Tour recommendations were a little confusing as to what to do or see at each stop. Mainly about food.
Hello Maureen, Thank you for taking the time to leave us this feedback On our tours, we aim to have the right balance of time at different stops, allowing for short photo stops and more time to explore key destinations in depths. Sorry, the balance of time didn't feel right for you, and you felt rushed at each stop. I'm sad to hear that you didn't get clear recommendations from your driver-guides about what to see, do and where to eat. These guidances should be given clearly to all guests so they can make the most of their time at each location. We're taking your feedback on board, and I'll be sharing it with our operations team so we can improve how we deliver our tours. I hope that you were still able to enjoy the scenery and that you were charmed by the Cotswolds. Thank you again for taking the time to share your feedback, and I'm sure we’ll have the opportunity to welcome you on another tour in the future that has a slower pace. All the best Camille
It was a nice experience and our guide shared good stories along the way. I am unable to recall his name, but i guess it was Fahad. We went on 4th June, hope this helps !!
