Wei and Jess were the stars- should have more time at each destination!

Booked the signature package for bath+costwold. Departure point was easy to locate. The tour guide Wei was awesome and Jess, the driver was experienced and ours was a smooth ride to Bath and Costwold and back. We started at 8:30 and reached Bath at 10:50. The admissions to Roman Bath Museum was included. We found the time limited at both Bath and Cotswold. Had to be back to take the bus at Bath by 1:15 pm. Thought it was too little time as after the Roman bath tour and lunch- we did not have time to explore the city. We visited Bourton on the water- Small cute Costwold village with river running along below cute little bridges. Kids enjoying playing in the shallow water. Nice cafes with delicious ice cream stores all over the town with beautiful houses in the town. We had about 1 hr 45 minutes in the town- 1 more hour could be better. We left at 4:30. I suggest starting the tour at 7:30 am and leaving Bourton at 5:45 pm for future tours to get extra time. Our guide Wei was excellent and explained historical facts throughout the tours regarding Londons attractions along with Bath and Costwold. She made it interactive and lively. Driver, Jess made the ride enjoyable. The signature meal was good and adequate. All in all a good experience and would be better if we got more time at each destination.

Wonderful tour guide and...

Wonderful tour guide and wonderful driver. Beautiful drive to the town of Bath and had just enough time to explore, and sit for a piece of cake and coffee. Then on to Cotswolds where we enjoyed lunch, walking, taking pictures and then ice cream. Great day.

Great day trip!

This was a great day trip for all ages! Both locations were wonderful to visit- Bath was full of history and the Cotswolds were so charming! Our tour guide, Stefan, was the highlight. He was well informed, had many fun facts and kept the whole experience very entertaining, keeping the attention of our family if 15 visiting from the U.S.. Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed!

Don’t book this tour

Didn’t get value for money. The tour is not a guided tour. The guide was boring. We went to the boring side of Cotswolds where there wasn’t much to do

Excellent Guide and Driver

Our guide, Wei was very knowledgeable and informative (5-STAR Excellent Guide!). We enjoyed the trip very much. It would have been a little bit more comfortable if they provided toilet breaks between places. Wei and driver, Colly made our trip very pleasant!!
