Disappointing

RenaiBodley, May 2026

Boring. No guide. Just a driver who didn’t bother to check names, tickets, etc. He showed up more than 30 minutes late at Paddington, leaving us wondering and worried where he was, if we were I. The right place, etc. Then, I misheard when we were to meet at the second stop. I thought he said 3:40, but when we showed up at that time the bus had left, leaving us stranded. Why didn’t anyone call or text or email me? We were literally sitting in the back garden of the pub where the bus was. We had to pay for an expensive I we to meet the bus at the next town. A very disappointing experience.

Great comfortable bus...

Great comfortable bus with an experienced driver and a very knowledgeable tour guide. We had a great time.

Think twice before booking

Jerry_J, Mar 2026

Not really a tour. Rather just a bus ride to the Cotswalds. Although we loved the villages of the Cotswalds and are a must to see in England, DO NOT use this vendor. Very deceptive advertising. The " English" speaking guide only means a pre- recorded message comes on as your bus enters the village and only that one time. A rather dour bus driver who literally raced through the countryside was all we had. Never knew a bus could go that fast. Without an actual guide there is no context no meaning to what and where you are going . If all you require is transportation catch a train .

The place was beautiful...

The place was beautiful but there was rainy day so we didn't take many pictures there. We love Bourton in the water because we can feel christmas vibes there

I’ll start off by saying...

Doris_P, Nov 2025

I’ll start off by saying the Cotswolds were very pretty. Our driver was punctual picking us up.Those are the only positive things I can say. We received “zero” information from our driver apart from when he would be back to pick us up from the different drop off locations. We did not even get a “hello” . In the past, we have had good experiences booking tours through Viator and the guides are friendly & provide lots of information about the locations we are touring. This was not the case on this tour. Again, we literally received “ zero” information. Do not book this tour.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

At the time of your booking, we did not offer a guided tour or tour guide. We have since added this service and now offer guided tours

Extremely disappointed

Jacinta_H, Oct 2025

Unfortunately I didn’t get to do the tour. I was waiting at the meeting point (along with about 10 other travellers) and we received an email after the start time informing us that the tour was cancelled. We received no explanation other than an email saying the tour is cancelled. Thankfully our money was refunded but it was very disappointing.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Hi. The tour was cancelled due to bad weather and would have been mentioned in the email sent to you. We are again sorry for the inconvenience

Don't expect a guided tour!

Fay_K, Sep 2025

Not impressed by the website as the itinerary went missing after making the booking. Got dropped off and picked up in Burford, Bibury and Bourton-on-the-Water with no further information apart from what time we had to return to the minibus. Had to use Google for information on the areas we visited. In Bourton-on-the-Water I visited the cute model village. Next time I'll look specifically for a guided tour as opposed to a tour.
