Amazing and highly recommended!! Wish we can give more than 5 stars.

Caglar is amazing. He responded promptly as soon as we booked the tour, had excellent communication before and during our journey. He customised what we aimed in the trip, is knowledgeable about the history of the Cotswolds area, provided excellent service and went a step further providing advice on taking photos as a pro. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a chill and enjoyable day trip in Cotswolds!

So nice to have a private tour. A lovely group of villages. Good info about the history and places. Good mix of walking around and then going to the next place. Free time for lunch. A little shopping if desired!

Response from Host, Feb 2026

I am so glad you enjoyed the private tour! I loved showing you the villages, sharing the history, and having a nice mix of walking and exploring. It’s great to hear. I hope to see you again on another adventure!

Calgar was outstanding!...

Greg_L, Nov 2025
Calgar was outstanding! He gave us a fantastic full-day tour of the Cotswolds and struck the perfect balance – being informative without overwhelming us, while still giving plenty of space to explore the villages on our own. Communication was excellent, especially regarding pickup time and location, and his vehicle was spotlessly clean. Highly recommend Calgar to anyone looking for a wonderful Cotswolds experience!

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thank you so much, Greg, it was a pleasure hosting you! I’m really glad to hear you enjoyed the Cotswolds. I did my best to make the day special for you both, and if you come back to Cotswolds again, I’d be more than happy to welcome you back. Wishing you plenty of sunny days ahead!

Wonderful Experience
