Highly recommended. - The tour was amazing. The places were beautiful. The tour guide and the driver were very nice. The introduction given by the guide was very informative and easy to follow. I highly recommend this day tour. There are two things which are worth to mention, but that's not for the tour itself. The weather was too nice on my day of visit, and the beautiful towns were too crowdy to take photos. Though the places are worth for visit, most cafes/restaurants would be closed after 5 pm. Public toilets were the only facilities available, which you may not want to use.

An exciting adventure awaits as you embark on a memorable family tour! - We had such a fantastic time on our tour! There was plenty of time to explore, grab a bite to eat, soak up the history, and even do a little shopping at the boutiques/book shops. It was a great experience for our little one, with comfortable bus rides and air conditioning to relax in between sights. The tour shared just the right amount of interesting history about each town, which is super helpful for first-time visitors who might want to come back for a longer stay. It was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of London, making for a wonderfully relaxing day. Our driver and guide were incredibly kind and helpful! I would absolutely recommend this tour to families and solo travelers alike!

very good - I like this tour guide so much. He is very enthusiastic. We have to catch a train halfway. He personally planned the route for us and took us to the bus station. I am very grateful to him for this.

Cotswolds day trip in mini bus - Had a wonderful day out with Anderson tours who took us around the Cotswolds. My first time there so was a good taster especially if of driving. The bus tour gets to places the trains can’t. The tour took us to the beautiful villages of Bibury, Bourton on water, Broadway tower and Stow on the wald. All lovely places. Our guide Liza (like Minnelli nor Kudrow) stood out with her supreme knowledge that went beyond mere geography into the fascinating realm of history with stories that brought a new depth to the appreciation of the region, while also helping pass the time while driving between villages. Would highly recommend and will look to use this company again.

Exploring the Cotswolds was magical - Quaint, beautiful towns with lots to see. Since there were quite a few people there, it was a bit crowded, but still a fun time.

NOT THE BEST - I was so looking forward to this tour and visiting the Cotswolds and while the scenery and the beautiful little villages didn't disappoint, the company was a bit rough side. Our driver was all over the road and by this I mean she crossed the centre line 4 times, she was always on her phone and trying to eat and drive and was lost at least twice. While she was a lovely girl, I felt she was not ready for such a long day tour and her driving made us very nervous, I was very tempted to take over driving myself. She also got into a yelling match with some parking attendant at Burton on the Water, as we were not meant to be in the car park, where she told us to meet her and she was late. We expected to be dropped back off at out collection point, but instead we were dumped in the middle of Trafalgar Square and told to use the subway, as she didn't want to drive in the traffic anymore. I did a tour last year with a different company and this was poles apart to what we experienced with Andersons. My advise would be to train your people better and give them the tools to do their job better.

A very late start! - Three of us decided to take this tour because the pick up point was at Earl's Court near our hotel. Unfortunately, the coach was 45 minutes late. The reason given was that the bus was blocked by other buses at the overnight parking location. It seems that a company that runs daily bus tours would have that organized in advance. Two other groups on different Anderson tours were waiting at the same pick up point, and their buses were late also. There were 25 on our tour, and we were transported in a full size bus was really too large for the narrow lanes of the Cotswolds villages. However, our driver Crystal did an amazing job maneuvering through tight spots. Two years ago, we took a similar tour with a maximum of 16 people in a small van. That was an ideal number and we would have used that company again if we had not waited too long to get a reservation.

Less than average experience for Cotsworld tour - The Coach was in very average condition . Seats once inclined could not be brought back to usual position , toilet was not functioning initially and on return trip was kept locked . Only saving part was the guide TEM - who was very helpful and went out of way to provide good service
