Fantastic Tour of The Cotswolds

5.00We lucked out by finding a private tour of the Cotswolds! To have gotten Christian, was a true gift! He drove us through and around 11 towns, giving us history and taking us to the most beautiful places. Christian was super flexible and of course did all the driving and parking which allowed us to sit back, relax and enjoy every minute! He was a great communicator from the start, before we ever arrived in England and continued to be wonderful even after our tour was over. Christian made sure we saw as much as we could in one day in the Cotswolds. He is full of knowledge and good humour. His car was clean, comfortable and he thought to have water bottles for us. The day was full, fun and wonderful!
Great day with Christian!

5.00This was an amazingly informative and efficient way to see the Cotswolds from Bath. Thank you to Christian for a lovely day and Elena for coordinating as my contact prior. We saw more places and learned more than coordinating on our own or doing a bus tour. Really feel like we got to know the area and Christian tailored the trip to our wants and needs. Highly recommend and would do again!
Fabulous experience with Christian!

5.00We had a fabulous time touring the Cotswolds with Christian. He is knowledgeable, fun, reliable, flexible and a great driver and entertainer. He made the tour very personal and included special requests to help us , as well as recommendations for other areas we were headed to afterwards. I highly recommend him.
Great tour of the Cotswalds!!

5.00We highly recommend this tour! Christian picked us up from the train station and then did a customized 6- hour tour of the beautiful villages of the Cotswolds. He was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions and gave us time to eat, take pictures, etc. His office was even helpful in arranging our train schedule a few weeks ahead of time. Being from the states we weren’t quite sure how to make the connections from London. They advised us which trains to take (even the time schedules!) and Christian was waiting with cold bottled water. Again, a wonderful day.
Outstanding services!

5.00Had a fantastic day in the Cotswolds with Christian! He is incredibly friendly, knows all the best spots, and even made our lunch reservations at a beautiful restaurant with amazing views and food. Highly recommend his services if you're visiting the area!
Excellent day in the Cotswolds

5.00Christian was an excellent guide for our private tour of the Cotswolds. We took an ~1 hr ride on GWR out of London and Christian met us at Kemble station. We went the next six hours exploring the amazing, charming and quaint Cotswolds villages. Christian’s communication pre-trip and day of the trip was excellent. I had booked months in advance and Christian confirmed quickly & said he’d reach out a couple weeks prior which he did to get our train timing details. He adapted the tour to our “must see” items and allowed us plenty of time to wander, and have lunch. We saw so many wonderful places in a short time and were dropped off at our station for the return trip on time. Really enjoyed the day and highly recommend this tour.
Highly Recommend! Will do it again when we come back!

5.00We had an amazing experience touring the Cotswolds with our driver Christian. Every recommendation felt thoughtfully tailored to us, from beautiful villages to great local spots we never would have found on our own. What made the experience truly special was his incredible knowledge of the area’s history. He brought every place to life with fascinating stories and insights, and we learned more than we have on any other guided tour. Warm, professional, and genuinely passionate about the Cotswolds, he made the entire day unforgettable. Highly recommend!
A very memorable experience

5.00Christian was our driver/guide and we couldn't imagine a better informed, fun and genuinely kind guide to provide my husband and I with a more entertaining day. Christian has lived in Cotswolds for 10 years and is well acquainted with each area, the best of what it offers, all the hidden gems and every curve in the road. When you visit Cotswolds, ask to book with Christian. You'll have a glorious time.
