Don’t book this tour! We got up at the crack of dawn, made our way to the meeting point just to discover it was cancelled! We had been looking forward to it for weeks.
most beautiful cotswolds villages visited, our tour guide was really friendly and amazing, we booked cotswolds tour from london, and it was amazing experinece
I loved seeing the villages but not enough time was offered in each village, especially the larger ones. It was a long day with a lot of driving involved. Our minibus was not the comfortable coach ride offered in the description of the tour. The tour was advertised as being in English, however our guide’s English was very difficult to understand due to her accent. Very little commentary was offered along the way which was disappointing.
I really enjoyed the day trip to The Cotswolds, spending time in Castle Combe, Bourton-on-the-water, Bibury (with Arlington Row) and Stow-on-the-Wold. Our tour guide Moleka was gracious and shared knowledge about the places we visited. Our van driver was a good driver and made the scenic drive enjoyable. At each of the stops we had enough time to walk and take in the amazing charm of the area. I would book with this company again for an excursion.
