It’s a day of magic, imagination, and inspiration.
Many have gazed upon Stonehenge and wondered how the enormous standing stones ended up like that. Some believe the wizard Merlin worked his magic to create them. Others imagine aliens are involved. While some agree it was the Romans. Standing stones constantly inspire the imagination and on this tour you get to see not just one, but two of these amazing constructs.
And it doesn’t stop with these monuments. Many know the Cotswolds as a place of quintessential beauty and it’s time for you to see for yourself. From movie set locations to fascinating history, you’ll love exploring this beautiful region.

5.00My family had a wonderful day led by our tour guide Iggy. He was very knowledgeable of every location that we visited, and even had information on the towns that we passed through as we traveled to each major destination. Each stop on our tour felt like the perfect amount of time to get out and explore without feeling rushed, but also not so long that we were standing around waiting for the tour to move on. We signed up for the tour because we wanted to see Stonehenge, but every location ended up being just as interesting in its own unique way. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone considering it.
Good way to see the area!

4.00Tour and guide were well worth the money. Lots to see, and Tom knew lots of facts and stories for the areas we visited. I did take a star away because the bus is terrible if you are tall and not a size 2. My knees hurt more from being in the seat in front of me then walking on the cobblestone and mud.

5.00Esther was a phenomenal guide. She had lots of great stories to tell us on the crash to each location. Her playlist was amazing and I’d definitely recommend this tour to others.
Fantastic and mystical, like being in a movie

5.00The Stonehenge + Cotswold tour is perfectly organised. Accurate, punctual, with a fantastic guide (Tom)... a well of information. I really enjoyed the musical references to characters, events, films, etc. that accompanied us throughout the trip. I will consider Rabbie’s for my future UK tours... driven by curiosity!!! Top! Unfortunately there are no other stars beyond 5!
This is a good way to get...

4.00This is a good way to get to sites with interesting commentary and a basic overview from the guide along the way. At the sites you are on your own for the time allotted. If you are looking for in depth information and a guided tour at each site, this is not the tour for you. We enjoyed the running commentary and being able to see the countryside along the way as we did not have a rental car on this trip.
Great experience. Everything...

A Great Excursion - Great Stops, Great Stories, Great Pubs

5.00Excellent excursion, from the host to the comfortable transportation to the sights and stops. Our host, Esther, was awesome. Very knowledgeable, entertaining, and shared the right amount of stories with a local flair. After Stonehenge we stopped at 3 different beautiful, quaint, English villages and each stop was long enough for a pint! Cheers! Highly recommend!
