History and culture in the British countryside. - This excursion is well worth the trip out of London! There is a lot packed into this 10 hour trip. Our tour guide Phil was experienced, interesting and a wealth of information. Gary adeptly handled the coach which was very comfortable. FYI, there is a very handy USB port at each of the seats. I could have easily spent one whole day at Blenheim alone. A tip: keep close track of the time spent and move along the exhibits and gardens in Blenheim, lest you miss the bus!

- Highly recommend this day tour. Simon the tour director was excellent with his knowledge and commentary. Clive the bus driver was such a good driver. At no stage did I feel rushed. The bus was extremely comfortable. Thoroughly enjoyed my day. Congratulations to both Simon and Clive.

Lovely day out of London with nature and history - A lovely day-trip out of London through villages, nature and of course Blenheim Palace. Our guide, Angela, was incredibly knowledgeable and kind, walking us through the history of what we saw and telling each story with passion

Some great, Some not worth it. - Blenheim Palace is amazing. The Cotswolds stops were not much fun. Too many tourists! The guide was good on content, but a little vague on meetup times.

A very well-organized way... - A very well-organized way to learn about the Cotswold area in general and certain locations such as Blenheim Palace in particular. Some attention is paid to locations used in the filming of Downton Abbey.

Two highs and a low - The trip was good Burton on the Water was good and Blenheim Palace exceptional. My only drawback was Bampton. That was a disappointment. Too long for a few buildings that we were shown photos of what it looked like in the series and films of Downton Abby. Could have been used at another Cotswold village.
