We traveled some lovely back roads and got to see the countryside. When we got to our assigned stops we were given ample time to explore. I would gladly book with Paul from Shakespeare Coaches again.

Excellent Adventure - Excellent day visiting the Cotswolds and Stratford-Upon-Avon. We were lucky to have sunshine and temperatures around 83F, and I enjoyed seeing all of countryside. Be prepared for a lot of driving. It is two hours each way from London, but as long as you go into the tour being flexible and understanding how long the drive will be, you will be fine! My only suggestion is that they need to add a stop at the Lavender Farm. It was very sad to sit and look at those beautiful lavender fields and be unable to get out of the van and smell them. Paul was a great guide, and very accommodating.

The fabulous day tour - This was the best way to explore old English villages near London. The driver was very friendly and knowledgeable about the places we visited. We had enough time to walk about each spot. The pick-up and drop-off spot was easy to find near the Paddington Station. Totally recommend it!

Great tour - It was great to be in a small group rather than in a huge coach tour. Paul was very knowledgeable and conducted a great tour.

Great tour! - We had a great tour with Paul who was knowledgeable and gave helpful advice during our tour. The 16 seater bus was comfortable. Paul adjusted the itinerary to factor in the summer crowds and brought us to notable places we would never have discovered on our own. Taking the tour saved us the stress of driving down narrow country lanes and driving bumper to bumper down the expressway in the heat. I would highly recommend this tour.

Our local guide, Paul,... - Our local guide, Paul, was terrific. Smaller tours are the way to go. The Cotswolds was my favorite. It would be nice to have a bit more time in each location. I will have to plan a more focused tour in future.

Think Twice! - This is a very long day in a bus that is very cramped with 16 passengers. For a 10 hour tour that bus should have 4 less seats! The audio system along with the poor pronunciation by the driver made it inaudible from the 4 rear seats in the back of the bus. The driver/guide was a lovely man but it seemed more like a job than a passion which I compare to other Viator tours I’ve taken. His timing was off as he dropped us off for an hour at the second spot for a lunch break but the restaurants didn’t open until noon so there was absolutely no time to explore the town. The few bits of information I was able to make out is the Cotswold’s were known for their sheep and wool products but today is now known for tourism. That was a turn off as we saw ice cream shops and trinket shops everywhere and the opposite of what we wanted from being in the city. Beautiful countryside with a few photo ops but not worth the 10 hour cramped quarters. FYI if possible do not sit in the last row with 4 bench seats, it was miserable. You know it’s know it’s not good when your spouse is looking for a train station to get back to London less than 1/2 way into the trip! Such a disappointment from other Viator tours I’ve taken!
