5.00Beth was a very good guide and we spent a lovely day with her at Blenheim and touring the Cotswolds. She took us to a lovely restaurant for lunch and spent much of the day giving us a true feel of the Cotswolds area. We were not interested in just being dropped off at shops for an hour here and there but wanted to see the villages and countryside. Thank you for a very enjoyable view into your lovely country.

5.00Beth was very flexible and accommodating in this tour. We enjoyed chatting with her as we drove to each destination. We loved our last stop in the Villiage of Minster Lovel with the ruins of an old Hall in this idyllic setting.
Amazing trip to Cotswolds

5.00Beth gave us an individualized and in-depth tour of the Cotswolds. She focused on what we really wanted to do and set up a wonderful place to have lunch and plenty of time to shop and enjoy the area. We were provided with tons of history and information in the comfort of her private car. This was our last day in London and it was such a nice break to get out to the countryside and experience that aspect of the area without having to be crammed into a bus full of people..well worth every cent.
The best tour guide!

5.00We had a great experience with Beth at the drive. She is an excellent driver, with an open attitude to let you enjoy the wonderful trip to Bethleheim palace and the Costwolds. She made the reservation to an excellent restaurant and took us to visit a beautiful church and the ruins of a medieval castle

5.00A welcome change to the up-and-at-‘em routine of touring in London, Beth’s tour gave us an opportunity to relax and to take in the natural beauty of the English countryside and of some of the small, self-contained towns and hamlets that make up this lovely area. And not all the delights were visual: at her suggestion we enjoyed a delicious Sunday roast at the Bay Tree Hotel in Burford and had the opportunity afterward to explore by foot and by car. First, though, came our visit to magnificent Blenheim Palace (family home to and accidental birthplace of Winston Churchill) in Woodstock. Fascinating for its history, design, grandeur, gardens, and art (including a number of pieces by Churchill himself), we could easily have enjoyed twice the time we spent. We were very happy to be working with Beth. She’s friendly, informative, flexible, a pleasure to ride with and be guided by. We agreed to all her recommendations and were glad we did. (And, last but not least for those like us, unused to British rules of the road, Beth’s a VERY good driver.) Although we can only vouch for this one, we're sure Beth brings the same qualities to all her tours. We highly recommend both.

5.00Beth Tes of Majestic Voyages was terrific! She went the extra mile, literally—taking us through the Cotswold countryside for our return journey, even stopping on country lanes for photos. She made lunch reservations for us at the Bay Tree Inn, where we had a leisurely meal on their beautiful terrace. We had their Pork chop with romesco sauce and an especially delicious fish & chips. Beth is very easy-going, friendly and has all the up-to-the minute travel tips. We highly recommend her travel guide services!
