My husband and I booked this Cotswolds tour and absolutely loved it! Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, sharing interesting stories about the villages we visited. We had plenty of time to explore Moreton-in-Marsh, enjoy afternoon tea in a cozy pub, and wander through picturesque Bourton-on-the-Water. A wonderful way to experience the quintessential English countryside.

Paul is wonderful! He’s a nice guy and it’s evident that he really enjoys what he’s doing and showing visitors the beautiful Cotswold countryside and villages. He’s very knowledgeable and knows a lot about the history of the area and was also able to recommend restaurants and places to visit in the towns. He is a safe and careful driver which was important since the roads are very narrow and the weather can make it challenging. There were only four people on the tour, including my husband and me. Paul was very flexible about adapting the schedule if we had requests. Paul gets an A++ from me. He’s one of the best guides we’ve ever had.

What a lovely day we had being driven through the beautiful Cotswolds with our driver Paul. He was such a knowledgeable and friendly guy. Leaving the car at home enabled me to relax and witness the gorgeous landscape and outstanding beauty of what this tour offers. The coach was comfortable and warm. It was also lovely to meet the other guests on the trip and enjoyed sharing photos with each other. You will fall in love with the Cotswolds and Paul knew all the hidden gems I didn’t know existed. Thank you Paul and to the others that made our day so memorable.

Yesterday Paul was our driver for our tour of the lovely Cotswolds. It was a perfect day from start to finish and I was blown away by the beauty we got to see. Paul took us right to the heart of Chipping Campden, Dover’s Hill, Snowshill Village, Stow on the Wold, Bibury village and we ended the day in my favourite spot, Bourton on the Water, but driving through endless beauty spots on the way. Paul was waiting for us already from our pick up location in Stratford Upon Avon, and welcomed us on the coach, which was warm and comfortable. Paul was knowledgeable and a really friendly guy who answered all of our questions about the beautiful places we were visiting and passing through. I certainly wouldn’t have been able to visit all of these beautiful places by any other means than this tour as they are not all accessible by train and knowing where to park would be a worry for me. We travelled as a family of four, the youngest being 4 years old and I was so pleased there was something to keep my little one entertained. The free roaming sheep at Dovers Hill were a huge hit. The walking was not extensive which was initially a concern due to having a child in the party, but Paul dropped us right to the heart of each location and made things so easy for us. Our lunch spot was Stow on the Wold and the stocks were such a good place to sit and have our lunch-it made for great conversation! I have to say I have been blown away by the beauty I saw yesterday. From the open spaces and breathtaking views, to the typical Cotswold cottages I was sure only existed on postcards (something that you just do not see living in the city.) I was thrilled to be in the lovely Cotswolds this weekend and will be returning again for sure. My recommendation would be to bring a pair of wellies for the children (and adults!) so they can paddle in the beautiful streams at Bibury or Bourton. The water is so beautiful and clear, something I have not seen in such a long time. On a lovely summers day however…no wellies necessary! Thanks Paul for a lovely day!!
