5.00My husband and I went on this tour because we always wanted to see the Cotswolds as they looked so beautiful. We selected this tour and it exceeded our expectations. We were on the tour with 2 other couples we did not know but were a pleasure to be with. We cannot say enough about our guide Max. Max is a wealth of information. He knew everything about the Cotswolds. We stopped at several different locations; a hotel for tea, a local pub for lunch, churches, Malemesbury, Castle Combe - Wilshire and many other beautiful places . We had a wonderful experiences and learned so much. I highly recommend this tour, and of course, Max. Thank you for a great day. Max!

5.00Max was great...a wealth of history. We truly enjoyed the whole day. Small tour was a unique experience that allowed us to ask questions, make stops that were special, and get out and walk a bit also. Excellent value

5.00Had an amazing day with our guide Chris Rodd early September. My sister and I asked him to tailor a day in the Cotswolds to see areas we would not be able to see on our own--and he absolutely delivered! Chris picked us up in Bath early morning and then for the full day we explored hidden gems away from the crowds-- we learned so much! Each place was unique and filled with so much history and beauty. He took us to a fabulous place for lunch and at the end of the day dropped us at out hotel in Broadway. Chris is easy-going, funny and worked hard to ensure the day was special and memorable.
A full-day tour at our pace

4.00We took the Hidden Cotswolds tour at the end of June. Our guide was Chris, who contacted us a few days prior to ask if we had specific places we wanted to see. On the day of, he picked us up at our Bath hotel. Chris took our small group to several villages not far from Bath. He shared his extensive knowledge of history about the places we visited, and points in between. We had tea in one town, and a good lunch near another. I highly recommend this tour, and Chris was a lovely guide.
Relaxing and magical
