Traveler reviews
Excellent Guide and Driver
Our guide, Wei was very knowledgeable and informative (5-STAR Excellent Guide!). We enjoyed the trip very much. It would have been a little bit more comfortable if they provided toilet breaks between places. Wei and driver, Colly made our trip very pleasant!!
Terrific Tour!!!
This was a wonderful tour. The tour guide and bus driver were terrific. She gave us such an insightful and interesting description of the regions and the areas we were visiting. The bus was very comfortable. We had a great day and I would definitely recommend.
Lovely day out of the city
Hello. Although I cannot remember their names, I want to tell you that my guide and driver on this tour were excellent. They worked together seamlessly and she was able to give us lots of interesting information along the way as well as tips for shopping and dining in each location. I enjoyed this trip immensely.
Fascinating look at rural England
Lovely day out from the hustle and bustle of London. Bath was quite a surprise to me. The Roman ruins were fascinating. We had 2 hours there, but I spent most of that time in the museum, by my choice. I’d love to go back again to get more in depth on the location. The drive to The Cotswolds region was very pretty. Our tour guide was extremely well spoken and knowledgeable. I learned a lot about the area. The lunch that was provided by them was unusual but very tasty and ample. It was a long day on the bus but I’m so glad I ventured outside of the city.
Trip to Bath & Cots
Guide Stefan knowledgeable and helpful made the trip more personalized. Felt in good hands with Driver Steve. He was always cool as a cucumber in the horrible traffic. It has been so hot here it was a vacation all in itself to be in the air conditioned bus viewing the incredible country side! Great day! Ps Would have liked more time at Bath vs Cotswold. 😊
