Max is an extremely affable and incredibly knowledgeable guy and guide! We toured Castle Combe, Malmesbury and Bath with him as well as traveled for a good part of the morning along the ancient Roman road or the "Fosse Way." Rather than give us just an extensive chronological history, he shared with us ways of seeing history in each place. It was a wonderful and memorable day!
Hello 393cates, Thank you for your kind review - much appreciated. I really enjoyed meeting you and D, and hope that the rest of your trip in England was also good fun. Please do get in touch next time you are in Bath, I have so much more to show you! Kind regards, Max
The day with Jules was simply amazing. A former teacher who settled in Bath and now gets to do what he loves, he kept our attention from the very first sentence to the last. What really stands out about him is how much he cares about showing the best of the Cotswolds, including the small hidden gems that often escape the usual tourist radar. The scenery felt like it was from another world, and all day we felt as if we were living in a fairytale. Jules made sure we were comfortable the whole way and offered wonderful suggestions for where and when to stop for a bite. Visiting some of the most spectacular sights of the South Cotswolds, like the iconic Lucknam Park Hotel and the surrounding villages that have served as filming locations for popular series, including Harry Potter, made it a perfect dream day in the Southwest British countryside.
Hi Josipa, Thank you so much for your lovely review. It was such a pleasure to meet you and your team, even though we didn't have long together, but I'm so pleased that it was such a magical experience for you all, and you got a real sense of the majesty and beauty of our region, even in such a short space of time! It's always such a pleasure connecting with new partners and we are really looking forward to working with you all in the years to come. Thanks so much again, and wishing you all the very best! Warmest regards, Jules
Greatest tour guide!! Simon Whittaker was so knowledgeable and informative…he couldn’t have been more personable. His ability to know the history of the area and facts were amazing. Showed us villages off the beaten path which really gave us a feel for the area. We highly recommend him as a guide and would use him again in a heartbeat! Thank you Simon!
Hi Lisa, Thanks so much for your kind words. It was so great to take you both off the beaten track in the Cotswolds and lead you by the hand through the labyrinth that was Roman Britain and the Dark Ages! I'm so pleased you enjoyed our day together, and thanks so much for being so kind, jolly and companionable to the other guests on the tour, it makes all the difference and makes my job a breeze! I hope to see you guys again one day Best wishes, Simon
We had a wonderful day visiting several villages in the Cotswolds. Our tour guide Ralph was extremely nice and knowledgeable. He made sure my wife had a good time. He tailored the tour to our needs. His van accommodates a lot of people so if you are traveling with a group you would be comfortable. We definitely recommend this tour.
Our private driver and tour guide was Roland Hurrell with In and Beyond. We can't say enough good things about him. His vehicle was immaculate and comfortable, he was always on time, experienced, friendly, and engaging--we spent a lot of time laughing. He took us to numerous places in the Cotswolds, and was a great source of history of the sights. We would absolutely recommend him personally, and will request him if we return to the UK. Thanks again for a memorable trip! The nutty bunch, Cheryl, Brenda, Beth, Heather, and Holly
Hi Adventure10605000251, Thank you so much for the glowing review. We’re absolutely delighted to hear your girls’ trip was such a memorable one and that Roland played such a big part in making it so special! We’ve shared your lovely words with him, and he was genuinely touched. We’d love to welcome the nutty bunch back anytime! The In & Beyond Bath Team
Had a wonderful tour with Ralph! We booked a shared tour but it ended up just being my husband and myself so Ralph was able to customize it a bit to our interests and include bits from their Jane Austen tour as well. It was much more relaxing and enjoyable than trying to figure it all out ourselves with a rental car and we were able to see and learn so many things we would not have otherwise been able to do on our own. Definitely a highlight of our holiday. Highly recommend!
Hi 610tracyy, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It means the world to hear that your time with us was a highlight of your holiday. We’ve passed your lovely words on to Ralph, who will be absolutely chuffed! We're so glad the day felt relaxed, personal, and memorable We’d love to welcome you back one day The In & Beyond Bath Team
In spite of anticipating a few people on his tour, it turned out to be solo. Simon Whittaker took me on a personal tour of the Cotswolds that turned out to be one of my favorite days of a 15 day tour of England and Scotland. Being from the area originally, he shared history, insights, thoughtful conversation, myths and folklore, interesting information about films, authors, stars, and books and generally made the day very special.
Hi Cindy, What a nice surprise to read your kind words about our tour. It was a privilege to spend the morning with you and show you round! A half-day barely scratched the surface of the Hidden Cotswolds we could show you. Come and see us again one day. All the best, Simon
The most amazing tour I have ever been on! You’re literally stepping back in time! Everything is preserved beautifully. We highly recommend this tour. In @ Beyond Bath are an exceptional tour company! The BEST part was our tour guide Ralph! So informative and personalizing the trip to our needs and interests. It was like touring the Cotswolds with an old friend. Ralph made our trip exceptional. We decided out of all of our tours, he was the best tour guide we had, and we had some very good ones! Thank you Ralph and In @ Beyond Bath Tours for making it a perfect day!
Ah, what a lovely review. Thank you for booking with us, and thank you for such a lovely and positive review. Ralph really enjoyed his time with you and has asked me to share his thanks for your warmth and good humour. We're both delighted that you had a great time and we hope you'll be back one day soon. If not, send your friends! Warmest regards, and many thanks, Jules & Ralph
We had booked a private tour of the Cotswolds through In and Beyond Bath. Our tour guide Max was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed his company and also the whole experience. The history of England in Malmesburry, the beautiful view of the town from the river Avon, the different breeds of cattle on our way, the green countryside, the beautiful castle Combe village, the manor house and the delicious Victorian plums we picked from the garden all is etched in our memory. We also enjoyed the wonderful pub lunch in Gibbs and the hot chocolate and coffee in the Olde bell hotel in Malmesburry. Certainly a memorable experience. Also would like to thank Jules for his prompt response for all our queries.
We were 7 Spanish friends celebrating a special birthday in Bath, and we decided to trust Jules when he proposed to adapt one of the "adventures" that he usually organise, to the idea we had of a day in the Cotswold. The result was perfect! A great day accompanied by Irina, a fantastic guide, well organised, discreet, smiling all the time and making our life easy and interesting. She took us to some charming villages, gave us the best information and by the end of the day, we felt that she was one of us, thank you Jules! and thank you Irina
Dear Encarnita, Thank you so much for your kind words, it was a wonderful day for me too! I am so happy you all enjoyed your day out, particularly on such a special occasion. Besides meeting such amazing people, it was a fantastic opportunity for me to practice my Spanish! All the best to all of you and thank you again for taking the time to write us a review. Warmest regards, Irina
