5.00We had a terrific day with Johnie - he was absolutely the best. My wife and I wanted to see Stonehenge and the Cotswolds, and Johnie was the perfect guide. We were picked up promptly at our hotel in Oxford, then kept us entertained throughout the trip, and showed us some highlights of his Cotswolds. We had a great day, and I would highly recommend Johnie.
Fantastic, knowledgeable and Friendly Private Tour

5.00I cannot recommend this tour enough! Our guide Johnnie picked us up at our Inn and drove us about this gorgeous country all day with knowledgeable background and anecdotes on each little place. Friendly, accommodating, fun and a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for a fabulous day. Would definitely recommend and hire him again!

5.00We had the most AMAZING tour with Johnnie and I cannot recommend him and his tour enough! My daughter and I had never done a tour like this and I was nervous about what we were going to talk about with a stranger for 8+ hours. But Johnnie was so easy to talk to and deeply knowledgeable about a tremendous range of topics that the time just flew by. (Hedges! Who knew there was so much to know about hedges?!?) Any and all questions we had, Johnnie was able to expound on with both humor and intelligence. It was an absolute joy to talk about so many things with someone whose years of experience living in the Cotswolds gives him deep knowledge and expertise on the area (and also about England, which was so fun for me as an American Anglophile!). We also lost count of all the adorable and beautiful storybook cottages Johnnie took us to, many of which would have never been accessible via a big bus or van tour. The views and scenery was the stuff of dreams! Thank you, Johnnie, for making our dreams come true and exceeding all our expectations!
Johnnie is THE best!!!

5.00We are on a dreamy girls trip in November 2024 visiting London and the Cotswolds. The highlight by far was our tour with Johnnie. He was flexible, friendly, super knowledgeable, and had great recommendations for food. Can't recommend him enough.
