Dagens första stopp blir Warwick Castle, en slående plats fylld av historia och aktiviteter. Slottet byggdes ursprungligen av Vilhelm Erövraren år 1068 och är nu en mycket interaktiv plats som passar alla åldrar. Vandra genom den vackra Stora Salen och State Rooms, se påfåglar i de anlagda trädgårdarna och utforska slottets torn och vallar.

Du kan njuta av en exklusiv privat dolda pärlor tur på Warwick Castle. Under ledning av en Expert Guide, se rum som inte är allmänt tillgängliga för allmänheten som du får djupare insikt i slottets historia.
Din buss kommer att köra genom vackra Cotswolds – var beredd på bildfärdiga vyer över denna hisnande del av den Engelska landsbygden! Cotswolds har utsetts till ett område med enastående naturskönhet och består av sömniga byar som påminner om en annan era, livliga marknadsstäder och oemotståndliga landskap.
Från ett elektrifierande slott till en idyllisk Engelska stad – nästa del av ditt äventyr kommer att vara den natursköna Stratford-upon-Avon, känd för att vara födelseplatsen och gravplatsen för dramatikerlegenden William Shakespeare. Du kommer att få besöka just det hem där han föddes och höra om hans formativa år i Stratford-upon-Avon.
Oxford har kullerstensgator, imponerande arkitektur och en smittande levande atmosfär, och är ett absolut måste att se. När du vandrar genom denna universitetsstad och tar in alla vackra vyer, kommer din Guide berätta om Oxfords fascinerande historia. Du kommer också att höra om de många kända individer som har prydda gatorna i Oxford medan du studerar vid universitetet IT - det är utan tvekan en imponerande lista över alumner!
I din rundvandring ingår inträde till den fantastiska 1200-tals universitetskyrkan St Mary the Virgin. Antogs av University of Oxford som en av sina första byggnader, anses denna pärla vara det andliga hjärtat av Oxford. Njut av spektakulära sevärdheter i dess unika barockdesign och lär dig om dess nyckelroll inom universitetet och Oxfordgemenskapen.
När du har utforskat Oxford är det dags att återvända till London – dit du kommer att komma tillbaka till ungefär klockan 19.

Oliver and Vi were very welcoming to all of us. Great information at every stop and everything was done in a very timely manner. Would recommend taking this tour to see Oxford and Warwick Castle.
Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re so pleased to hear that Oliver and Vee helped make your experience enjoyable with their warm welcome, great knowledge, and excellent organisation. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again on another Golden Tours adventure!
Very easy to book and good follow up prior to departure. Pick up point was not too crowded and easy enough to find unlike other operators. Bus very comfortable after initial confusion re seating/lunch bags for premium ticket holders versus non premium. Tour guide's in depth history information was a little too intense for us. Felt like being in a classroom. Would have preferred a more light hearted and fun approach. Enjoyed Warwick and Stratford but would have loved more free time in Oxford. Also would love if pick up and drop off locations could be the same.
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback! We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed your day out, found the booking process easy, and appreciated the convenient pickup experience and comfortable coach. We value your comments regarding tour pacing, commentary style, free time in Oxford, and pickup/drop-off arrangements, and we’ll share these insights with our team as we continue to improve the experience. We hope to welcome you back on another Golden Tours adventure soon!
Torn on how to review. Kelvin was dynamic, engaging, enjoyable, and entertaining. However, we did catch a few errors. For example, he talked about J.R. Tolkien (should be J.R.R. Tolkien) and his friendship with Lewis Carroll (it was C.S. Lewis). Also said Tale of Two Cities was by Shakespeare (it was Charles Dickens). As for the stops, we loved Warwick Castle and could have spent all day there but weren't as enamored with stops at Stratford and Oxford.
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback! We’re pleased to hear that Kelvin’s engaging and entertaining approach helped make your tour enjoyable. We appreciate your comments regarding the accuracy of the commentary and will share this with our team as we continue to enhance our guide training. We’re also glad you enjoyed Warwick Castle and appreciate your thoughts on the time spent at each stop. Thank you for helping us improve, and we hope to welcome you back on another Golden Tours adventure soon!

Overall, this was a well-organized tour that covered a lot of ground in one day, and our guide and driver did a good job keeping everything on schedule. However, there were several aspects that future travelers should be aware of. The biggest issue was the luggage policy. We were traveling onward after the tour and each had a carry-on suitcase. I contacted the company beforehand to ask if we could bring them, and was told no. They directed us to luggage storage at Victoria Station, which cost us £15 per bag. Once we boarded the coach, we discovered there was ample undercarriage luggage storage that easily could have accommodated our bags. To make matters worse, the tour didn’t even return to Victoria Station—it ended near Gloucester Road Station instead. We then had to make our way back to Victoria to retrieve our luggage, adding both time and expense to our day. The stop in Stratford-upon-Avon also felt far too rushed, given that this is where the tour expected us to get lunch. We had less than 90 minutes to find lunch and visit Shakespeare’s birthplace, which wasn’t enough time to enjoy either. An extra 15 minutes here would have made a significant difference. It could have been taken from the time we spent in Oxford. Warwick Castle was impressive, but our arrival coincided with numerous school groups. The castle was extremely crowded, making it difficult to enjoy the exhibits. Finally, if you’re booking this tour primarily to see the Cotswolds, you may be disappointed. The itinerary states you’ll drive through the Cotswolds, and technically that’s true, but we only skirted the edge of the region on the way to Oxford. We didn’t pass through any of the picturesque villages or scenic spots that make the Cotswolds famous. If seeing charming Cotswold villages is a priority, this probably isn’t the right tour. Another note: we were able to get student discount tickets online for much less than what the tour company was charging for tickets that included entry. For reference, our day was roughly: * 2-hour drive to Warwick Castle * 90 minutes at Warwick Castle * 30-minute drive to Stratford-upon-Avon * About 80 minutes for lunch and Shakespeare’s birthplace * 1½-hour drive to Oxford through the edge of the Cotswolds * 90 minutes in Oxford * 1½-hour drive back to London, arriving around 7:00 p.m. Overall, the tour is a good way to see several destinations in a single day, but it prioritizes covering a lot of ground over spending meaningful time at each stop.
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are pleased to hear that you found the tour well organised and appreciated the efforts of our guide and driver in managing the itinerary. We are sorry to hear about the inconvenience caused by the luggage arrangements. While our tour information does advise that the tour concludes near Gloucester Road Station, we understand how frustrating the additional journey back to Victoria Station must have been. We appreciate you sharing your experience, and your comments regarding the luggage information have been passed on to our team for review. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the time spent at each location. As this tour covers several destinations in one day, the itinerary is designed to provide guests with an introduction to each area, including a scenic drive through parts of the Cotswolds region. Guests looking for more time to explore specific locations may prefer our tours that focus on fewer destinations. Guests can also customise their tour package by adding their preferred entry options or choosing our Signature option, which includes a lunch pack for a more enhanced experience. Thank you again for your constructive feedback. We hope to welcome you back on another Golden Tours experience in the future.
Great experience! Had a fun guide with Oliver who explained everything in a funny way. Enough time at every stop to explore all that has to be seen!

We will be sure to share your kind words with Oliver. We are pleased to hear that his fun and engaging commentary helped make your day memorable. We hope to welcome you back on another tour soon.
