Lovely day in the Cotswolds. - It was a long but satisfying day. Our guide, James, was excellent with insightful and amusing commentary. Joanne drove well and was very pleasant. The three stops were all good and lunch at the Swan Inn in Biford was very good.

Great Tour, Well Worth It! - James and JoAnne were great! The tour was well worth it. Only advice is that you might want to skip the lunch and get food yourself, as it reduces the amount of time you have at that stop.

Amazinh Day Trip to Cotswold - I usually DIY my travel but for Cotswold, it's not doable due to transport issue. So I booked at day tour. We went with James and Joan and it was a wonderful experience! We went to 3 Villages - Stow on the Wold, Bibury, Burford.

Highly recommended - I loved the excursion. The villages we visited were very nice. The bus very comfortable and with bathroom included. The best thing about the tour was the Rowan guide, a charming person, very dynamic, explaining a thousand interesting stories with great enthusiasm and always with a smile

Really enjoyable tour of Cotswold!! - We took the day tour to Burford, Bibury and Stow with Nicholas the tour guide and Driver, Christian. It was a superb day, Nicholas was so friendly, informative and helpful. And Christian was very friendly and drove the bus well. The day was seamless and the lunch was delicious. I have attached pictures of the food. I totally rate this tour and it wouldn't have been the same without the tour guide. I'm a local Brit and been to this tour many times (when my friends and family visit from afar) with other companies but I enjoyed this the best.
