We were picked up by Pete and Mal from the DeVere and taken around some of the most scenic locations in the Cotswolds. We would have never seen any of these sites had it not been for this tour. Mal and Pete kept the tour light hearted and were full of interesting facts about the locations. They also kept our 12 & 9 year olds engrossed with interesting stories. Due to the pandemic we were the only family. The vehicle was spotless and sanitisers and water was provided for us. There was also a shield between the front rows where Mal and Pete were and the back, where we were sat. The whole experience was exceptional and I cant recommend the tour enough.

Mr. Robin Dale came to my rescue! I was trying to get from Blockley Village to Moreton-in-Marsh station on an evening in December, and the bus I was waiting for never came. I called several taxi services, all of whom were unavailable, before someone gave me Mr. Dale's number. Though I believe it was after hours for him, he came out to get me and drive me the 15 minutes or so to the station. I was indeed getting a bit stressed and chilly out in an unfamiliar town at night, so to not have to wait another hour for a bus (which I was just hoping would come!) was such a blessing. I will always remember his graciousness with an abundance of gratitude -- he came to pick me up on his own time, simply because he did not like the idea of me waiting alone in the dark and cold, and was so pleasant throughout the drive. I cannot think of better, more above-and-beyond service. Do contact Cotswold Tours & Travel for your taxiing needs -- but preferably according to their schedule!

We saw so much more of the Cotswold's as our guide Tom took us on all the back roads to see sights we hadn't visited before. Highly recommended for a good day out.

We thoroughly enjoyed this cycle tour. Mike was a fantastic tour guide who was very attentive, keeping things entertaining with interesting insights into the area, while ensuring we were all safe on the roads. The bikes are in top condition which was a nice surprise. The route was quite hard work at times due to the hilly nature of the Cotswolds, so try to be in relatively good shape! Nevertheless the hard work pays off with great views, and Mike never made us feel rushed. There are easier routes also from what I understood, so check which one you are doing if that is an issue.

The Go Cotswolds tour from Stratford Upon Avon is probably the best and most affordable and extensive tour you can take in the beautiful and quaint Cotswolds. We were staying in Chipping Campden and the tour bus picked us up right outside our hotel. Since it was September 2020 we were in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic and so precautions had to be taken. We had to hand sanitise each time we entered the tour bus and had to wear our masks at all times. The bus surfaces were regularly cleaned. The tour itself was very scenic, extensive and exciting especially if you are travelling to the Cotswolds for the first time and want a taster of every town in the area. The tour encompassed Chipping Campden, Dover Hill, Broadway Tower, Stow on the wold, Bibury and Bourton on the water. I loved all stops but the one which I found to be quintessential Cotswolds was the town of Bibury with it's beautiful Arlington Row. I am pretty sure most people would agree with me on that one as its picture postcard Cotswolds. The town which I found to be the most lively was certainly Bourton on the water with many day trippers from London and a wide selection of pubs and restaurants by the river. The tour guide was very informative and provided us with a detailed history of the region and extensive knowledge of the area. He is local to the region. I would give our tour guide a 10/10 when it comes to knowledge about the Cotswolds , it's history and it's culture. I would highly recommend taking this tour and would not think twice about booking another.

The thick-walled castles inspired Shakespeare's battle-torn tales. The narrow cobbled lanes kindled his love stories’ twists and turns. And the deep, green valleys encouraged him to write about monsters, myths, and magic. On this adventure, we take you through the landscapes that sparked his imagination and his inspirational hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon. But this tour isn’t just about the famous playwright. You find yourself a little tipsy as you sample a local beer in a small brewery. You feel princely as you walk through the ancient hallways of Blenheim Palace. And you become snap-happy as you wander over the trickling rivers and peaceful hills of the Cotswolds. Learn about Shakespeare’s inspirations and discover England’s most famous landmarks on this three-day small group tour from London. 

Inclusions: Professional Driver Guide, 2 nights en-suite accommodation with breakfast, Transport on a top of the range Mercedes mini-coach, Small Group Tour with maximum 16 people for a more personal experience

Exclusions: Gratuities, Meals and refreshments, Hotel pickup and drop-off, Admission fees

Nice little tour from London. Lucy was our guide - she had some interesting information but would have liked a little more talking from her. The info she did give seemed a bit disjointed. She was a lovely host though and had lots of great local knowledge. The walking tour through Canterbury was also very nice. We had enough time at the cliffs to walk out to a viewing area which had quite a nice view. Would have loved more time in Canterbury as there was only time to do the cathedral or explore the town (but not both). Quite a nice tour overall and would recommend it to everyone.

Me and a friend decided to visit Bicester Village in Oxfordshire for a little guilty pleasure shopping day, we decided that Bicester Village would be the ideal place as it housed some of our favourite brands excluding Louis Vuitton (sad face), and generally it makes a good day out. On this occasion we decided to book via Trip Advisor and take the luxury coach experience over car or train. The coach booking was very easy and convenient to do, once the date was selected the time and location (Victoria Coach stn situated on Buckingham Palace Rd) provided a convenient and hassle free booking arrangement. The coach was nicely designed with the Bicester logo and text so easily recognisable on arrival, the driver was really helpful and friendly when assisting me to direct my friend to the pick up point. The only negative for us, is we didn't realise that the coach would stop off at various hotel locations in central London to fill the coach prior to departure to Bicester Village itself, we personally thought this wasted time and would find driving their a better option on the next visit. The village was as nice, as I remembered it, we found that not all the boutiques took the 10% discount on offer with this coach trip. However the village was offering some great savings, so we decided that wasn't a major problem. We were asked to get back to the coach point for a 5pm departure, before we boarded to head home, this service provided free tea, coffee and water which was a really nice touch to sip something warm whilst enjoying the coach trip home, with our new designer purchases. The only one major disappointment was we decided to dine at Shan Shui, which personally I found the food to be really delicious, however my friend being a vegetarian found chicken within her vegetarian rice dish, which was a major disappointment. The dish was taken and another offered to replace the first dish, but the issue with the chicken being in the dish in the first instance was off putting, therefore a replacement dish was not excepted. Management were very sincere with an apology in regards to the situation, personally I would dine there again, however, vegetarians may want to take the menu into special consideration if choosing this venue as a dining option. My closing advice, visit when you can, as I'll be going back next year (2020) by car!
