We had a great day! Megan, our tour guide, and Sherry,our deiver were outstanding. The palace and the Cotswolds are beautiful, and this is a great and easy way to see them both in one day. If possible, sign up to include touring Blenheim Palace as it is much more expensive at the door, though still worth it. Also, be a little early as doors to access the bus will close exactly on time and latecomers will not be accommodated.

The check in process was seamless. Our tour guide, Chrissy, was terrific. Our driver was great also. The only glitch was the QR audio guide provided by the Palace. We were told by Palace tour guides that it was about a week old and it certainly had problems. I would recommend the tour guide tell tourists not to use the QR guide as it was distracting and took up too much time trying to reboot the system. .

Me and my wife like the tour very much. Jody the driver was excellent driver and Simon the tour leader was excellent too speaking very clear and simple English to understand. One of the most important thing was that everthing was exact in time. Very big well done.
