This talking tour with...

This talking tour with Sam was a delight. Sam was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history of Oxford and the uni. I was only sorry I could not stay to the end as the tour went on longer than I had expected. I will definitely do it again so I can do the second half of the tour.

In town for business and was lucky enough to have an afternoon for this tour. It was so informative and entertaining and at an easy pace. It hit all of the sights as expected but with so much extra storytelling and history. Our guide, Ross, was the highlight of the tour and I would recommend a tour with him to anyone. Five stars.

Taste of the Cotswald

We booked Go Cotswald Day Tour from Oxford via Viator. It was easy esp with prices in US$. Wendy was a great guide. She gave us highlights before arrival at the various stops and had clear instructions as to departure locations and times. She also shared some special impromptu stops or sights. It was a short introductory tour to the Cotswald, with more to explore.

Great overview of the Cotswold and nice pace

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Ian was very knowledgeable and gave us ample time to explore the towns. We were lucky that the weather was perfect when we did the tour. The only minor complaint that I have is the vehicle is a tad too warm in the back.

Great day trip from London

We had a wonderful time on this tour. We took a train from London for this day trip, which was perfect. Martin was an amazing guide. We learned a lot about the area itself as well as the history of England. The towns we stopped in were truly special. Highly recommend this company and the trip

Afternoon Tea and Boat Trip. An excellent combination!

I was only in Oxford for the day, and I couldn't pass up a trip down the river. I decided to arrive early and treat myself to an afternoon tea at the Folly Restaurant. It proved to be an excellent combination! Everyone I met during my experience was friendly, chatty and professional. I chose this one following other online recommendations, and I am glad I did. An excellent experience.

Very well organised tour...

Very well organised tour from booking the tickets, to keeping us informed via email, to the day itself. Sue, our tour guide was brilliant. We had two children with us and their feedback is they loved the quiz about Harry Potter. Sue kept the children engaged with lots of information about the filming of Harry Potter.
