Hosted by Simon, a Chipping Norton local with a farming background and inside knowledge of the area, this is a relaxed, personal way to discover the places connected with Clarkson’s Farm. With a maximum of seven guests travelling in a luxury Mercedes V-Class, this is a friendly small-group tour, not a coach trip. There’s time for conversation, local stories, photos and enjoying the places we visit without feeling rushed. This is a friendly small-group tour, not a coach trip. You’ll see the places from the show you expect — and some you won’t. I deliberately don’t advertise every filming location and local stop in advance, so part of the fun is discovering them on the day. Join as strangers, leave as friends. Spend the day like a local.

In and around Chadlington, Jeremy and Gerald’s local village, Simon takes you to places other tours don’t go. He knows the area from years of living and working locally, and shares the stories behind the places he shows you. A few stops are kept as surprises for the day itself. Allow around 45 minutes for the village and surrounding area, plus another 45 minutes for an optional countryside walk. If time allows, there may be a stop for a drink at a traditional village pub.
Simon takes you to The Farmer’s Dog along quiet Cotswold back lanes and villages that most visitors never find.
You’ll have around an hour and a half to go inside the pub for a drink, grab something to eat from The Farmer’s Puppy and see what’s inside The Grand Tour Tent.
