Oxford en Traditional Cotswolds Villages Small-Group Day Tour vanuit Londen
Beschrijving
De Cotswolds zijn alsof je een landschapsschilderij binnenstapt. Levendige groene kleuren, weelderige waterwegen en de mooiste huisjes. En Oxford behoeft geen introductie. De stad van studenten, torenspitsen en weelderige kathedralen is even inspirerend als fascinerend. Neem deel aan deze 10-uur durende tour met kleine groepen en ervaar twee van de meest terecht beroemde locaties van Engeland. Vervoer tussen attracties is inbegrepen. Onderweg kunt u eten en drinken kopen.
Rondreisopties
Reisroute
Je eerste stop is Oxford, waar je tijd hebt om de omgeving van de vele hogescholen te verkennen, een van de uitkijkpunten te beklimmen om de skyline te bewonderen, of de kunst- en antiquiteitencollecties in het Ashmolean Museum te bekijken. De keuze is aan jou. Deze route kan in sommige gevallen worden omgekeerd.
Onze volgende stop is in Burford, de ‘Gateway to the Cotswolds’. Het is een klein marktstadje met een enorm karakter en een enorme geschiedenis. De hoofdstraat is omzoomd met prachtig schilderachtige huisjes en eigendommen. Je hebt hier de tijd om te genieten van de lokale charme en gastvrijheid; en als je honger hebt, kun je een traditionele Engelse ‘Afternoon Tea’ proberen. Deze route kan in sommige gevallen worden omgekeerd.
Ten slotte maak je de korte reis naar Bibury, door William Morris beschreven als het mooiste dorp van Engeland, en de plaats die Henry T. Ford wilde ontmantelen en terugverschepen naar de VS. Hier hebben we tijd om langs de beroemde en sprookjesachtige Arlington Row te wandelen. Na een volledige dag de stad Oxford en de dorpen van de Cotswolds te hebben verkend, beginnen we aan de comfortabele terugreis naar Londen. Deze route kan in sommige gevallen worden omgekeerd.

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 !!
