Overview

Leave the crowds of Bath behind on a small-group half-day tour to the Cotswolds. Handy pickup and drop-off from a central meeting point spare you the headache of navigating the bus system and timetables on your own. With a maximum of eight people per tour, your visits to spots such as Castle Combe are both intimate and immersive. Plus, there's time to refuel during a lunch stop (own expense), before continuing on your adventure.

The tour takes you to several gorgeous villages in the countryside that feel like a fairytale. Our tour guide was Simon and we absolutely loved him. He was very knowledgeable, funny, and flexible. We absolutely give him 5 stars. We highly recommend this tour if you are in the area.

Max was my guide and he was wonderful! Immediately upon getting picked up he felt like a friend I had known forever. He made care to stop and explain details on our drive and even took the time to let me pet some cows :). We went at a steady yet relaxing pace and I really enjoyed our conversation throughout the day. You can tell Max truly loves connecting with others and sharing his interest in British history and even botany! I have already recommended this tour, specifically Max, to many friends who plan to visit Bath and/or the Cotswolds. I would definitely do this tour again with a friend. Thanks Max!
