One day coach tour
Day tour to Warwick Castle, Shakespeare’s house in Stratford upon Avon and walk round Oxford. Driver and tour host were great. Just a flavour of each place and I intend to go to Warwick Cadtle again and Oxford.

Not the best choice in hot weather
Buses take ages, we had to wait 40-50 minutes in the scorching hot sun and this humid weather. The operator that sells the tickets is super pushy and doesn't let us talk about it without feeling rushed. He gave the illusion of an option, but it seemed like we had no choice but to buy. We weren't told that we had to bring headphones to listen to the tour, because the voice was super quiet in the speakers. The operator told us there was 15 minutes waiting time for each bus, but we had to wait way longer. This is not fun when I have a mother with issues walking/standing. The prices on the website seem way cheaper than it is in person too.
