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.

5.00A lovely day out in the country. We visited four quite different villages. Rob, our driver, gave a thorough commentary prior to each visit. Lots of funny stories; great music onboard and safe driving.
Wonderful visit in village.

5.00Liam was our leader and he was outstanding! A perfect mixture of comedian, history professor, and musician! He made the trip so enjoyable yet educational! I would travel anywhere with Liam.
We couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you!

5.00Tony was an excellent guide with an excellent playlist. The villages were charming and everything we could hope for. My only suggestion for improvement would be to visit 2 villages instead of 4, allowing for more time at the 2.
Well worth the trip!

5.00Loved our day trip, especially to my favourite Bourton On The Water. Our guide Sean was great fun and gave us lots of information on the way. The day went so fast, its so much easier doing a day tour than trying to do it on your own.

3.00The countryside is beautiful The towns quaint and charming The tour was rushed When I booked this your website said we would return to London at 9:30 pm For reasons unknown we needed to rush through every town so we could head back to London by 4 Nobody on the coach requested this timeline We were instructed that this was the plan Disappointing
