Paul was a great guide - Paul was such a nice tour guide. He's an experienced local and took us to some great photo ops, used back roads to get us there, had great commentary, and rerouted us backwards through the itinerary to avoid the crowds.

Great day at the Cotswolds - Paul was such a caring and wonderful driver/tour guide. His instructions were very clear and disciplined in following the agenda. I could t have asked for a better person to do this tour. The weather cooperated so that was a plus!

What a splendid day! - Paul is an incredibly knowledgeable and personable guide. He had the time tables down to a science, knowing exactly how long we would need in each place we stopped. The day never felt rushed and we saw so much!

Cotswolds - a MUST see! - Although it rained for most of the day(?), Cotswolds is a beautiful part of the UK and definitely worth a visit, time permitting. As well as commentary from our knowledgeable driver/tour guide, a playback video providing information of each location is shown prior to arrival at each destination so if you're looking for a more personalised walking tour, this is not it.

I scheduled this tour as... - I scheduled this tour as a substitute for another tour that was cancelled...this tour covered a similar path. Paul, our guide previously lived in Stratford and was very knowledgeable about the villages in the Cotswolds. This is a small group tour so we had a coach that could more easily navigate the narrow village roads...that was a plus! the coach is well maintained, but to help you plan, please know the seats are small with no tray table and limited seat storage if you're going to shop along the way. (I believe there is a bit of a trunk/boot in the back that could be used for storage.) Because the Cotswolds are a distance for our London origin point, the narration along the journey was sparse in the beginning. It would have been nice to learn a bit more about the geography along the way, and I was disappointed that our travel through Oxford did not include a drive by the university. It is not part of the current tour itinerary but I'm suggesting it as an add to break up the silence on the journey out. Once in the Cotswolds we saw lovely villages and had the opportunity to stroll at our leisure. The drive between the villages was filled with the narrative...sometimes via a pre-recorded video from the tour company. That part felt a bit more like a commercial pushing the shopping more that the history and architecture of the area. When Paul narrated he was able to provide much more of the type of information I appreciated. Of the villages we visited, I could have done without Bourton-on-the-Water....a little too touristy. Our final stop was Stratford, and this was the whole reason I took the tour. The stop in Stratford was another "at your leisure" visit but was not enough time to take in all of the Shakespeare sites. At the end of the day, I was glad I took the tour. It was a lovely ride through English countryside, and provided an excellent sampling of villages along the way.

Uncomfortable Van - fewer people!! - Get to the meeting place early so you don’t get stuck in the last row or you will be crammed in with another couple. Too many people on a small van.
