What To Expect
Burford
The day begins by departing London and travelling towards the quintessentially English countryside of The Cotswolds; an area that is famous for its beautiful landscape, charming villages and honey-coloured stone cottages. Our first stop will be the traditional town of Burford; known as the ‘Gateway to the Cotswolds’. This is a historic place where many houses date back nearly 600 years and little has changed for centuries. During the visit there will be time to explore Burford, visit the magnificent church and stroll along the high street to visit a mix of independent family-run shops.
Bibury
The village of Bibury is often described as the 'prettiest village in England'. It's charming scene is a snapshot of traditional English country life. Wander along the gentle river and see the iconic Arlington Row; a set of weavers cottages that are now one of the symbols of the Cotswolds.

3.00Trip well organised in terms of logistics, well timed. I would have liked it more if the guide offered more information about the Cotswolds region and the villages we were visiting. The guide did not accompany us and did not say much during transfers from one place to another. I was under the impression that it was to be a guided tour but it turned out not to be.
Felt rushed throughout...

4.00Felt rushed throughout the day but the tour was a nice introduction to some of the best towns of the Cotswolds. Maybe too much information given along the drive - would have prefered additional quiet time or music.
