About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- mrnonrev0 contributionsCanceled tour at last minuteWe booked this tour for five people with a 9am pickup. We woke up to shower at 7am. At 730 the tour operator cancelled the tour without explanation. Now it is too late to get another tour and we don’t have another day on our vacation. Do not book this tour operator. Completely unreliable.Written 30 May 2022

Incredible deep dive into the Cotswolds. We saw Upper and Lower Slaughter, Bilfurd, Chippen North, Braodway, Bourton-on-the-Water, Bibury and more. John was extremely knowledgeable of the area and took us to places we wouldn't have seen alone. He was very entertaining and we enjoyed the tour and his stories making the Cotswolds come to life. I would highly recommend this tour.

Nick Long was our tour guide and he was waiting for us when we arrived at the Morten-in-Marsh train station. He had a full day’s itinerary for us to see The Cotswold and was open to our suggestions in the event we wanted to see a specific village or view. Throughout our tour Nick provided the color and history that only someone who’s spent their entire life there would know. Long story short - we would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to spend a beautiful day in The Cotswolds.

Phil,our guide was very informative and was able to use his knowledge as a local to make each of the many villages (we skipped lunch to see more) unique. Going by car meant were able to go to places better than a large tour bus. This included time to see a quarry of Cotswold limestone, inside at least 4 churches, visit a pub and catch sight of the Red Flying Arrows.
A 6.5 hour tour for 2 was a good value.

Reserving this tour was very straightforward. Our guide showed up on time and the tour was very good, hitting several "highlight" towns and also some small out of the way places. Overall it was a great general tour of the Cotswolds and we saw what we wanted to see. However, there were some issues. After leaving our hotel, we noted our guide was somewhat disheveled and the car we were in was worse. It was a small Toyota(?) SUV and was very dirty. There was trash in the car and the windows were so dirty we had to open them to see well. That was important because the smell in the car was not tolerable. Had we not already been well on the way when we figured this out, we would have walked away. We soldiered on but would not recommend this tour as it appears the quality control of their driver choices is not up to par. We would never repeat this tour.

I am extremely, very sorry for your experience. I want to apologise; this is the first time we had a review like that. I make sure that all the drivers have clean cars, and I can apologise one more time to you, and I will make sure that it will never be repeated in the future.

We need new superlatives to describe our guide, Nick (a true local), & our day in a small, but vibrant & fascinating part of the northern Cotswolds. Nick was delightful, friendly, extremely knowledgeable, funny, & charming. He is an excellent driver & knows the back roads if he needed to skirt around heavy weekend traffic. We went off the beaten path doesn't happen with larger tours & we went places a coach can't go. No time wasted waiting for others to get on/off a coach. We had a fantastic lunch at a pub that specializes in home-made cooking.
The 6-hour tour is worth every single penny. We are looking forward to taking other tours here & will request Nick specifically.
We have traveled A LOT & can very confidently say that Nick is one of the VERY BEST local guides we've ever had the pleasure of spending a day with.

Nick is a great character who knows the Cotswolds inside & out! He’s happy to focus on what you like, let you take as much, or as little time at each stop as you like. It’s as custom as you can get. This is not a luxury car you tour in, but who cares! Relax, have fun, let Nick show you the best there is to see!! He’s THRILLED to be working again after 3 years of lockdown! 😅 He’s rebuilding his tour business, and is giving it all he’s got! Book it! 💜

I’m incredibly sorry about the cancellation once again. As I explained to you about the accident with your tour guide and due to Christmas Day, I offered you other options and refunded you in full.
It’s really disappointing to see your negative review.
Please accept our apology once again.

The tour exceeded all our expectations. We”re a senior couple and Nick took excellent care of us, letting us explore on our own and never getting tired. He showed us the popular villages and sights, and then toured the back roads. Some of the sights were truly magnificent and we came to understand the real Cotswolds.

Highly recommend this fantastic tour! If you want an entertaining as well as educational tour, run, don’t walk to this adventure. John was by far the best tour guide we have ever had. He leaves no stone unturned. He’s the best in the business!

Our guide Ali provided an exceptional tour of the Cotswolds! Being from the area, he knew the best areas to visit and provided many opportunities to get awesome pictures of our day. I would highly recommend this tour - so informative. It's like travelling back in time!
