Our trip was wonderful and a beautiful ending to 5 1/2 weeks of traveling. Our guide was very knowledgable about the area. I had not been to this beautiful part of England before and I thourghly enjoyed myself. My only complaint was that the day had to end.

This is a perfect trip for a lovely overview of the Cotswolds done in a leisurely manner. The lunch was excellent (The Swan) in a very pretty setting. More time could have been spent in Burton on the wold for shopping as well as the sights there were to see. The tour was very efficiently run once you found your coach at Victoria Station. That was a bit confusing and hectic. I think if Moreton on the Marsh could be an alternate stop, it would add to a repeat trip. We were lucky on having good weather.

After having been picked up at 7.00am we then had to wait 45 mins for the next person to be picked up because of miscommunication.
The lunch was wonderful and enjoyed the 3 towns we visited in the Cotsworlds. Maybe 2 towns would have been better then we could have spent more time in each. Stratford was way too rushed and trying to walk 60 people through town together and each one trying to take photos was way to dificult. Would have liked a lot more time to wander Stratford by myself. Still all in all well worth the money.
Stopped in nice towns en-route to Stratford-Upon-Avon, where we stopped for a half-an-hour each. Plenty of shopping time there. Very nice lunch. However, no time to pick up a Stratford-Upon-Avon Shakespeare-specific souvenir, except from the craft store in his daughter's house - now a museum which weren't actually Shakespeare items.

Would have to admit that as much as we were looking forward to spending a day in the Cotswolds with lunch we found this tour a bit disappointing. We visited some beautiful places such as Burford and Bourton-on-the-Water, but because we had four stops crammed into one day we felt rushed and did not get to spend nearly enough time to accomplish more than a rush through town and not nearly enough time to shop. Bibury was our lunch stop but we would've much rather had lunch on our own and more time in Bourton-on-the-Water - as the lunch selections (pasta or trout) were less than inspiring and we seemed to spend more than enough time in Bibury because there was little to see or do once you saw the trout farm. Next time we'll take the train to each village on our own so we can be able to experience all each has to offer. Came away feeling dissatisfied.
