The tour was informative yet a lot of time was rather wasted to provide us with the lunch! My daughter felt nauseous since the beginning of the trip- who is 4 years old! And the guide kept telling me to fasten her seat belt even if her stomach was hurting and we were very cooperative. What I didn't like was - in my small child's vicinity we were explained atleast 20 Times it's a criminal offence for not wearing a belt! The guide must be knowledgeable but lacks manners needed over the humanitarian grounds. You should definitely consider someone who's more child friendly!
Lunch was very disappointing. Lacking service and the staff were very rude.
Relaxing day - viewing a different side of UK- other than London. Very pretty !

Ticketing was fine but do take out the bit about printing the ticket. Most people are travelling. Mel, the guide was great. A real feature. I do think adding the Cotswold into the advertising was false as all we saw was a couple of thatched houses as we sped by. Overall, a pretty good day.
I liked Oscar. He is a great guideman! I am sorry we didn't stop and walk throwgh the Cotswolds. Mabe you can include that in the tour. A walking tour.
The actual trip was great and the guide was fantastic. But on the "headout" webpage you advertised this tour as "cotswold" but it did not stop at any of the villages. Althou Oxford and Stratford upon Avon are within the cotswold location, your advert was misleading to state "cotswold" in the tour and this should be made clearer.
Reached Victoria Coach Station by 8:05. But was not able to identify the Evans Tours... was guided to a different platform and by the time I was able to find the correct one, it was 2 minutes over the time and the support staff was very rude
The bus left me at Oxford. They didn't try to connect me till now. My bag is left in the bag
Very good guide, Pauly, who helped me out throughout the journey.
The tour guide was very friendly and helpful. She gave us useful and interesting information. Drop-off was in a centric area.
The tour was smooth and the transportation was clean. Ample time was given to explore places. The bus guide also became our tour guide explained the history while we were in the bus. However it would have been great if we could get down at cotswold to take pictures....
Our guide was super nice and knowledgeable!
Guide and bus driver (thank you Jerry) were great. Tour beautiful and extensive Thank you for the wonderful day
It was a beautiful experience. Pick up point on the booking form was not clear so it should be removed. There is no pick up option only meeting point at the station.
Ticketing was ok except the requirement to print the tickets - I got a QRcode, so why to print? The best thing was the guide - Mel. As a guide myself I can assess his work. Professional, friendly, helpful a knew really everything. Hope the guide on our next trip will be the same quality.
The places were as expected, but we really liked the guide - Stefan - who was knowledgeable and funny. Wouild go with him any time again!
The places we visited were beautiful! The best thing was the guide Peter, very nice and pleasant.

The Cotswolds, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in south-central England, spans 800 square miles across Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire, extending into Warwickshire, Wiltshire, Worcestershire, and Somerset. Renowned for its rolling hills, charming villages, and rich history, the region features picturesque towns like Bibury and Castle Combe, grand manor houses from the wool trade era, and extensive walking trails like the Cotswold Way.
When planning your day trip from London to the Cotswolds, you have a variety of guided tour tickets. Each ticket includes additional stops besides Cotswolds, such as Oxford, Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick Castle, Blenheim Palace, and Downton Abbey village. Other tickets may include activities such as country pub lunch.
Ticket prices vary by inclusions. Standard tickets include transport and a basic guided tour, while premium options offer extras like meals or exclusive access to other spots. It's important to compare what’s included in each ticket to find the best value for your trip.
While the Cotswolds offers stunning scenery and quaint villages, accessibility can vary. Some areas are well-equipped with ramps and accessible restrooms, especially in larger villages, but the cobbled streets and hilly terrains in others might pose challenges.
Bringing a stroller is possible, but be prepared for some challenges. The cobblestone streets and narrow pathways in some villages can make navigation tricky. A lightweight, foldable stroller is recommended for ease of use.
Yes, some must-visit villages include Bourton-on-the-Water, known as the "Venice of the Cotswolds," and Bibury, famous for its picturesque Arlington Row. Stow-on-the-Wold and Chipping Campden are also highly recommended for their beautiful architecture.
The Cotswolds is known for its traditional English fare, including hearty pub meals and afternoon teas. Most cafes and restaurants offer vegetarian options, and some cater to gluten-free or vegan diets.
Wi-Fi is available in most larger villages, especially in cafes, pubs, and hotels. However, signal strength can vary in more rural areas, so it's best to download any necessary information beforehand or bring a portable Wi-Fi device if connectivity is important to you.
While a half-day trip is possible, it’s quite rushed and you may miss out on experiencing the true charm of the Cotswolds. It’s recommended that you allocate a full day to explore multiple villages and take in the beautiful countryside.
