4.00Both were beautiful towns and beautiful countryside. Oxford’s buildings were truly incredible. Not a Harry Potter fan but may now see the movies!
Great tour

1.00This is a horrible experience. I was pregnant and vomitted in the morning and we were 10 minutes late. We texted to let them know we were on the way and even offered to grab to the next location to catch up with the tour. They left and when we tried to ask for at least a refund. They just rejected it without getting in contact. Never book with these people ever again. Horrible experience. Until now no one has contacted us about anything.
a lovely tour

5.00The coach, the guide, and the driver were superb. And traveling on a tour you meet so many wonderful people from all around the world. The day was just simply a pleasure.
TOO MUCH DREADFULNESS IN ONE DAY.

1.00What a horrific experience this tour was and I plan on trying to get a refund. This was way too much to do in one day. The traffic in and out of London was horrendous. It wasn’t any better between Cambridge and Oxford. We were gone 11 HOURS and had 70 minutes in Cambridge and 50 minutes in Oxford. The rest of the time was ON THE BUS THAT FAILED TO HAVE WIRELESS AND CHARGERS THAT WORKED AS ADVERTISED. our tour guide Eileen was pleasant and fun yet spent most of the time talking in Chinese to the 7 Chinese on our tour. Out of around 18 people. She tried her best but unfortunately she was set up to fail because the Company Shoved this itinerary into one day. Shame on them and would never recommend this trip or this company to anyone. We had to literally run through both places while our guide was jogging pointing out important sites with both hands never once looking back at us to see if we could have been run over in the streets. WE HAD NO TIME for lunch and I have low blood sugar. I’d give it zero stars if I could. The advertisement for this tour was a walking tour. Ours was a jogging tour. I’m not joking! Moderately physical? We had an older woman who was very upset as she couldn’t keep up. 2 hours at Cambridge turned into 70 minutes. Oxford even way less. This was a complete rip off of over $260! Five hours and 15 minutes of tour time was 2 HOURS TOTAL! I think we should all get refunds!
