Brilliant Team - best way to tour the Cotswolds.

What an amazing day! Max was fantastic - his knowledge and "inside info" was brilliant! Our family had an awesome time and we could have been the whole day at it with Max. Thank you !! I highly recommend this team - Jules will go out of his way to accommodate you. We had a 6mth baby with and it was pleasureable... We also used the team to do a walking tour of Bath - this too was highly entertaining! (Thank you Justin)!

Highly recommend this Tour

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.

The very best way to experience Bath and Surrounds

We actually did a private 2 day tour and it was the best part of our 7 week trip. It was designed for us to suit our interests and although I expected it to be amazing - it was so much more. Day 1 we focused on ancient burial mounds, long barrows, Glastonbury, Avebury and beyond with a yummy lunch at a local pub. Day 2 was to Wells Cathedral, Laycock Abbey and more - and again a delish lunch at a little local pub. Out of the tour bus areas and so much knowledge shared. Highly recommend.

Awesome tour, wonderful guide! 10/10 Recommend

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!

Great Way to Explore the Unknown Treasures of the Cotswolds

We did a private tour exploring the undiscovered Cotswolds. Our tour guide David was friendly and knowledgeable and had put together a delightful tour. We loved getting off the beaten path and not doing the standard route. We saw lovely and historic churches and the iconic Cotswolds villages. It was great being on our own timetable.
