Cotswold’s trip

James was a fabulous guide. Gave us very good info about the Costwold’s! He also helped each and every person on the bus with directions from our drop off point. That was above and beyond! Neil, our driver gave us a very smooth ride and navigated the narrow streets like a champ. Fabulous tour to the Cotswold’s and I highly recommend! Peggy R

Stonehenge and Bath Tour

Beautiful sunny day. Carlos was a great driver (nice driving). James, our guide, humorously gave many anecdotes along the way

Excellent, interesting. A guide is a must for the Abbey.

We had a guided tour of Westminster Abbey with Izzo, who was one of the best guides I’ve ever had. He provided detailed, but fun and helpful information, kept the tour moving and , , including historic details about the Abbey, that I had never heard

A little disappointing

River cruise was a disappointment. Sound system aboard the boat did not work correctly. Sound kept cutting in and out. Make sure you have a good plan of where you want to go and sites you want to see if you book this self guided tour.
