Description

Our award winning tours from Bath are thoughtfully organised, allowing you time to explore freely as well having the benefit of our local driver guides who are full of knowledge and passionate about the area. Being in a small minicoach allows you to see over the hedges and walls but still allows access along narrow country lanes, so you can sit back and enjoy the wonderful Cotswold countryside.

Perfect day!

Fabulous experience. Loved our guide - he provided so much history and detail about the area as we drove from Bath and to each of the towns. He added additional spots not on the list (bath room break and traffic) and we loved how it was customized based on the day. It was delightful! And well broken up so that we weren't driving long periods of time and able to spend almost enough ( I could have stayed all day in most of the towns) time. I also liked that we visited Castle Combe (the smallest and the most likely to get crazy crowded) first to help ensure the smallest number of crowds.

Just right!

Truly a great tour from Bath to the Cotswolds. Tour crew was awesome, well-planned itinerary and right amount of time spent at each stop. Would absolutely choose Mad Max tours again.

Mad Max Tours - Cotswolds

I would highly recommend the Cotswolds tour from Bath! It was so much easier than trying to plan the travel on my own, and the van was very comfortable. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. You got to see a few different towns and were back to Bath with plenty of time to do something in the evening.

Operator response

I'm glad you found the tour an easy way to explore the Cotswolds, and that you still had time to enjoy your evening back in Bath. Best, Maya

A Wonderful Tour Through a Beautiful Area

We had a fantastic day with Andy. He was a great driver and gave us a lot of information about the region and villages. Our tour was well run seeing so many beautiful spots while learning about all the different little towns. While we covered a lot during the day we never felt rushed and had plenty of time to enjoy each of the villages. We would recommend this small group tour for exploring the Cotswolds in a relaxed and efficient way.

Operator response

Hi Kim, we're pleased you enjoyed your day with Andy. I'm glad the pace of the day felt just right, giving you plenty of time to enjoy each village. Best, Maya

Delightful Cotswold experience!

Highly recommend this tour. Very comfortable air-conditioned 16 seater mini bus and our guide Jason was a local Bath person so provided very knowledgeable commentary. Each stop was picturesque and enjoyable with plenty of free time in each village.

Amazing tour with Jerry

Amazing tour in the Cotswolds, we 100% recommand it! Our guide Jerry was lovely and upbeat, he taught us a lot about British history, filling his explanations with plenty of funfacts. He even stopped in places that weren't on the list so that we discover more of the area. It was so nice, we really enjoyed the day, the villages were so pretty. So worth it!

Operator response

Hi Juliette, it sounds like you had an amazing day with Jerry, it's so nice to read your kind words. We're glad you enjoyed discovering the Cotswolds and learning a bit more about British history along the way. Best, Maya
