Blenheim Palace Dit ontzagwekkende statige huis, de huidige privéresidentie van de 11e hertog en hertogin van Marlborough, is misschien wel het best bekend als de geboorteplaats van Sir Winston Churchill. Bewonder de verbluffende details achter de portretten, wandtapijten en meubels in de weelderig gedecoreerde State Rooms, waaronder sierlijke meubels van Boulle, Savonniere-tapijt en de iconische 'Victories'-serie wandtapijten ter ere van de overwinning van de hertog op de Franse legers van 'De Zonnekoning', Lodewijk XIV, tijdens de Slag bij Blenheim. Geniet van een wandeling door de prachtig aangelegde formele tuinen ontworpen door Lancelot 'Capability' Brown en meer dan 2.000 hectare aan parkland, of wandel in de voetsporen van Sir Winston Churchill. Bezoek zijn meest gekoesterde buitenplekken op het terrein van Blenheim Palace, inclusief de plek waar hij Clementine Hozier ten huwelijk vroeg.

Very disappointing: rushed, poor communication, disorganised

I was very disappointed with this tour, especially given its high rating and the promise of a well-organized experience across such beautiful locations. Firstly, the tour description clearly stated that entry to the palace was included in the price. However, upon arrival we were told to purchase tickets ourselves. This was both confusing and frustrating, as it directly contradicted the advertised information. Secondly, the transport arrangements were extremely poorly managed. After visiting Blenheim, we waited around 20 minutes at the meeting point before being informed that the bus had broken down. We were asked to return 40 minutes later, only for the replacement bus to arrive an additional 30 minutes late. During this time, there was little communication and no visible guide, leaving the group waiting in the heat without updates. As a result of these delays, the planned lunch stop in the Cotswolds was effectively lost. We had very limited time and were forced to rush to find whatever food was available, rather than enjoying the location as intended. This significantly impacted the overall experience. Additionally, the replacement bus did not have WiFi, which was another inconvenience. Overall, the tour was disorganized, poorly communicated, and far from the experience advertised. I would appreciate an explanation, particularly regarding the palace ticket issue, and would expect a refund given the circumstances.

Very good and in Spanish it would be excellent

We chose a tour of the Cotswolds and a castle and honestly they should be chosen separately since there is not even time to eat, if you eat you miss everything since everything is fast, we chose an excursion in Spanish and everything was in English, the guide was very good and very patient

Perfectly Planned Day Trip from London

We had a wonderful experience on the Cotswolds and Blenheim Palace Day Trip from London with Evan Evans Tours, booked through TripAdvisor. The tour departed promptly at 9:00 a.m. from Victoria Coach Station, but I definitely recommend arriving early to check in since there are many different tours leaving from the station. Our tour guide, Angela, was fantastic, and our driver, Angelo, did an excellent job navigating the busy roads safely and smoothly. Despite the extremely hot weather, everyone made the most of the day. One thing that made a huge difference was the coach itself—the air conditioning was superb and provided a welcome break from the heat each time we got back on the bus. Angela kept us entertained throughout the journey, sharing interesting history and facts about the areas we passed, which made the drive just as enjoyable as the destinations. Before the trip, I was a little concerned that we wouldn’t have enough time at each stop. However, with the heat and the well-planned schedule, the amount of time at each location actually felt just right. We had enough time to explore, take photos, and enjoy the highlights before we were ready to move on. Overall, this was a very well-organized day trip with beautiful scenery, fascinating history, and excellent service from both Angela and Angelo. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for an easy and enjoyable way to experience the Cotswolds and Blenheim Palace from London.

Great day touring the palace and Cotswold

This was a great day and great tour. Seeing the palace was a great highlight of the day. Our tour guide Sandra did an awesome job giving us a wealth of information on the way there and on the way back. She took us to some interesting places in Cotswold as well. Our driver Mentor was awesome and got us through some rough spots without a hitch! An overall great tour!

Delightful day in Cotswold, Blenheim palace, downtown abbey village (Bampton)

Enjoyed the day! Wish there was a half an hour more in Blenheim palace & gardens. 2 hrs was not enough time. The bus was spacious, AC, recharge our phones. V, comfortable. Great way to see the countryside. Wish we could driven by other Cotswold villages. Enjoyed Bampton and seeing downtown abbey village, church, the crawley house exterior, the library (shows hospital). Perhaps start tour at 8 instead of 9am. Sandra was very knowledgeable blue badge guide. Appreciated her extensive knowledge, she’s delightful! 10/10!!!
