Itinerary
Walking tour of Oxford. Enjoy the opulence of Oxford! Renowned for over 900 years as a centre of academic excellence, follow in the footsteps of its famous students; from Bill Clinton to Lewis Carroll and C.S. Lewis. Uncover the university town of Oxford at a leisurely pace and take in the Bodleian Library and the captivating college courtyards on your travels. Be guided through unspoiled narrow alleys and ancient squares of the historic town and view the many colleges, notably Christ Church, the film location for the Harry Potter movies.
The tour drives through the Cotswolds, a charming blend of breathtaking natural beauty, bustling market towns and sleepy villages.
Shakespeare’s Stratford-Upon-Avon. Stratford is a market town with a difference. Bask in the birthplace of arguably the world's greatest writer, William Shakespeare, situated on the outskirts of the Forest of Arden. See Shakespeare's Birthplace - the half timbered house where he was born, to gain a fascinating insight into his childhood. You will view Shakespeare's birthplace from the outside, as it is closed for the holiday.
Be part of Britain’s greatest Medieval experience! Deep in the heart of Warwick Castle, the Great Hall becomes a hive of activity! Immerse yourself in battle preparations and feel the weight of a medieval sword. Become a soldier - try on a battle helmet for size! Visit the spectacular State Rooms and feast your eyes on Victorian party preparations. (Entrance to Warwick Castle Dungeon is not included in this tour).

A truly enjoyable ride and commentary. Organized time limits and great price for tour. The crowd sizes were manageable and the staff ensured everything we experienced was amazing.
I enjoyed the tour but for me it would be better of I could stay more time in each place.
Thank you for your feedback — we really appreciate it! If you’d like more time at each stop, we recommend checking out our other tours that visit just 1 or 2 locations. These options are perfect for spending longer at each place and enjoying a more relaxed experience. We are glad you enjoyed the tour though!
Amazing tour Stefan is a great guide have mane fun facts about every topic and always was aware of do his best with the open things on the road (was a holiday so not many things was opened)
The experience was great, even though the weather was quite terrible. I thought that we were also going to visit the Cotswolds but it was just a drive though actually. Oliver and Mario (tourist guide and pilot) were really nice people.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you had a great experience with Oliver and Mario — they’ll be so pleased to know their friendliness made a difference to your day. We appreciate your note about the Cotswolds; this tour includes a scenic drive through the area rather than a full stop, and we’ll make sure this is communicated more clearly moving forward. Despite the weather, we’re glad you enjoyed the journey and hope to welcome you on another tour soon!
This was a great trip for boxing day since almost everything else is closed. Warwick Castle was great. But note that Shakespeare's house is not open on boxing day so you can only see the outside. Oxford was nice as well.
My wife and I participated in the Oxford, Stratford, Warwick Castle tour. We would like to thank our guide Oscar and our driver Kiiran. It was a successful tour in terms of price/performance, the duration could have been a little longer, it would have been better to give an extra 10-15 minutes at the sightseeing spots.
Beautiful excursion. We had a great day. Paul a kingpin. He has a very good vibe, I emphasize his willingness to help us in everything, what he knows and how he transmits it. Very prudent driver. Very punctual!!! It is to recommend
Fantastic experinece, thank you so much, regards from (Lima Peru) we will return to London and definitely contact you again
Hello! Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you had a fantastic experience. We look forward to welcoming you back to London in the future. Safe travels back to Lima!
Great service, was never confused on where to meet for pickup, got to pick between tours or free exploration at every stop. Super great trip and very humorous guide. Thanks Pablo! Oh and thank you aswell Eddie, superb driver.
It was a very nice experience. Guide Pablo was funny, pleasant, respectful and very professional. For a francophone who understands English it was nice to see that her accent was very noticeable despite everything. Excellent experience.
