Reviews
Krissy (sprry if I misspelled your name) was an amazing tour guide, she knew a lot of interesting facts not only about places we visited but also the things we saw on our way. Paul was a great and nice driver, felt very safe with him driving.
our guide sacha was very good. she made everything fun and enjoyable for everyone on the tour. it was not a full pack bus which good i guess. cotswold makes you feel you were brought back centuries ago. what a great experience indeed.
Fantastic guide Ursula guided us on the tour and she shared many fantastic stories along the journey and history of the places we are visiting. The Blenheim palace tour was free. There was a fashion show display ongoing. we enjoyed Cotswold and love the Fish n Chips. The time spent at Cotswold is rather short. wish we had more time there
Omar was really good and attentive. He was giving a lot of good information and advice for each location we went to. Drive was smooth and safe. really great value for money!
A very nice tour. Blenheim Palace is a must visit. we had around 2 hrs of time to explore. Also nice view from the garden.
Our tour guide, I forgot his name, he was so kind and nice to us. We managed to visit all the places.
Today's tour guide, Mr. Godfrey, is humorous and the overall explanation is very good! Blenheim Palace is so stunning, it is my favorite attraction today. Please be sure to get the audio guide to listen to the explanation, it will definitely be very rewarding!
The itinerary is beautiful, but there is nothing special about Downton Abbey. It is just a small rural village. It can be a little longer in Cotsworth, but it is a very happy itinerary after all.
The two Chris’ (Chrissie and Christian if i got the spelling correct) were a tandem. Gotta give credit for them for waiting for us when we made them wait for over 5mins, sorry about that guys. But the rest of the trip was a breeze. Loved the mini trivias along the way.
Lovely tour guide Megan, who knows her stuff well! and driver was also able to cruise through the narrow roads. From Downtown Abbey village, we saw the film sets before our eyes. Duration at Cotswolds could be longer, it was a very lovely place to explore. Blenheim Palace was a surprise, very well maintained. A pity that the Christmas decoration is on, hence couldn't focus on the artefacts and sculpture well due to lighting effects. Will certainly recommend this trip nonetheless!
