This tour was great. Kevin, our guide, was very knowledgeable. He gave lots of tips in each village. He made the trip fun!

This small-group tour was perfect— our driver and tour guide, Clare, was incredibly friendly and warm (and also a big Doctor Who fan, so bonus points there), and was an excellent driver along the narrow roads of the Cotswolds. The villages were beautiful, quaint, and peaceful— definitely worth the trip. I had so much fun talking to other travelers and exploring other parts of England!

While the ride is about 2 hours from London, it is totally worth it. The sites are amazing. The local villages are picturesque and friendly. It looks just like a movie you can’t believe your eyes.

Had a great tour today with Claire. She was so informative and cheerful and took the time to talk to all of us on the tour. The four main stops were beautiful and so picturesque. Loved being able to drive through the country roads and little villages and not just the main motor ways. We even made a special stop at a farm shop requested by a person on the tour which made this more unique than a large tour bus company. Highly recommend a tour with them. Wish I had more time to do the Kent tour.
