Resplan
Blenheim Palace Detta imponerande ståtliga hem, den 11:e hertigen och hertiginnan av Marlboroughs nuvarande privatbostad, är kanske mest känt som Sir Winston Churchills födelseplats. Beundra de fantastiska detaljerna bakom porträtten, gobelängerna och möblerna i de överdådigt dekorerade State Rooms, som inkluderar utsmyckade möbler av Boulle, Savonniere-mattan och den ikoniska "Victories"-serien av gobelänger som firar hertigens seger över de franska arméerna av "The Sun King" , Ludvig XIV, vid slaget vid Blenheim. Njut av en promenad genom de vackert anlagda formella trädgårdarna designade av Lancelot 'Capability' Brown och mer än 2 000 hektar parklandskap, eller gå i Sir Winston Churchills fotspår. Besök hans mest omhuldade utomhusplatser på Blenheim Palace, inklusive platsen där han friade till Clementine Hozier.
Cotswolds & Stow-on-the-Wold Efter en kort resa genom några av de vackraste landskapen i England kommer vi fram till vår nästa destination, Stow-on-the-Wold. Utforska det slående marknadstorget, omgivet av eleganta stenradhus, fristående butiker, antika centrum, mysiga kaféer och traditionella värdshus. Torget har varit centralt i Stows liv i århundraden.
Bampton (the Downton Abbey Village): Inbäddat i de böljande kullarna är den pittoreska byn Bampton. Denna lilla traditionella engelska by har nyligen varit inspelningsplats för den populära periodiska drama-TV-serien Downton Abbey. Du kommer att se Isobel Crawleys hem, Downton Cottage Hospital, bykyrkan, samt platsen för två fiktiva lokala pubar, The Grantham Arms och The Dog & Duck.
London Victoria tågstation Din turné kommer att avslutas utanför London Victoria Train Station, centralt belägen och lättillgänglig med nationell järnväg och tunnelbana, den betjänas av Victoria, District och Circle Lines och ligger i Travel Zone 1.

The itinerary has not met our expectations. For example, time allotted to Stow-on-the-Woll was far too short to explore and enjoy the village. The only bright parts of our tour were our guide, Leslie, and our driver, Adrian.
The tour guide was telling the stories who she met “but I am not tell you who”. What is the point to start the story? The thrown the names many people not familiar with, “well… people who know them , understand who it is”. Horrible experience with Lesly.
Great way to see Cotswolds and more countryside. Guide was informative! Don’t spend too much time inside Blenheim or you won’t have time for the gardens and grounds!
The tour guide Cameron was very professional, energetic, and friendly. The way they explained the history and shared the stories was engaging and very interesting. The coach was very comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. The overall experience was excellent.Thanks to the bus driver Gary👍😀
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted Cameron and Gary helped make your experience excellent with their professionalism, knowledge, and friendly service. We hope to welcome you again soon!
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.

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
