Excellent Day!! Alex was our driver, focused on smooth transit throughout our 8hr day. Especially when navigating through the slim country lanes of the Cotswolds… Thanks Alex 🙏 And then to my tour guide Daniel. An expert in British History, I was amazed, educated and impressed, by both what I learnt and how brilliantly he customised my Cotswolds experience, from visiting Clarkson Farm to the unique castle with it’s insane vista and taking me to the most beautiful English town. Expectations far exceeded. Great team, great experience, would thoroughly recommend. THANKYOU to you both.
Had a wonderful day with our guide Dennis he was very knowledgeable &very interesting man -love all the villages!
This was a fantastic way to see the English countryside and little villages in Cotswald. Simon was very lighthearted and knowledgeable. It’s important to remember that the Cotswalds is very far from London. But if you have a day to kill, it is a great tour.!
It was a long day but it was interesting and the weather cooperated. Blenheim Palace and grounds were beautiful and the guide added a lot of background and historical notes. I didn’t realize when I booked that the palace was going to be the main feature with not much time for touring the villages. We did have a nice lunch in Bibury before heading back to London. The guide and the driver were great.
