The Oxbridge-Tour is worth it! - The Guided Day Tour from London to Oxford and Cambridge is more than worth it. Our experience was especially memorable because of our charming guide Carol and driver Adam. They were quite the team. So the beauty of Oxford and Cambridge had some competition. ;) But both cities captivate with their own charm. We would really recommend that you do both in one day to compare it. Oxford also has some very lovely cafés. We enjoyed the society café very much. (You must try their brownies. It's cholocate heaven right on your tongue.) Cambridge scores with a lot of interesting book shops.
We had a fantastic day.

The tour was overall good. - The trip was fine.As the weather wasn’t favourable we could enjoy only the Oxford tour rather than the Cambridge one.There were few technical glitches with the microphone in the traveller bus.

Nice transportation, lackluster tour guide. - I’ll start by saying that our mini-bus and driver were great. The bus was very clean, new and provided a very comfortable ride.
I booked this tour with the expectation that we were getting a substantial history lesson in each of the cities we visited. This was not the case. We took this tour on a bank holiday so maybe the more experienced tour guides were off but our guide gave us about a five minute tour then we were off on our own. I recognize some people may not want a lengthy tour but was disappointed in the very little that we learned. I’d book a tour with a different company if I came back to London.

Terrible bus accommodations. - It appears you're looking for a marketing piece and not a review. No questions are asked that could have a negative response. I've never been on a more uncomfortable bus ride in my life. It spoiled the day. Leg room on the bus was for toddlers, not grown adults.

No one showed! - No one showed or called to cancel. We waited for one hour and 15 min. No one showed or called to cancel. Still have not had a response to my email. We caught the train to Cambridge only to find the Kings Chapel was closed.
