A day in the Cotswolds - It’s a great way to get out of the city and see the beauty and history of the Cotswolds. We visit 3 communities, each with their own charm. There is time for walking and discovering in each of the towns.

GREAT break from the city! - This was an amazing day trip that gave us a refreshing break from the busy city. The Cotswolds feels like you’re traveling back in time, and the cities were not too busy when we went in March. Anna our guide and Abdi our driver were so kind, offering so much interesting info about the area and even gave us local recommendations for the rest of our time in London.

Lovely day trip through the Cotswolds - I loved the Cotswolds day trip from London! Megan, our guide was such a great guide!! She gave us all the details without being overwhelming and had just the tidbits I wanted to know! She was so warm and nice I wish she was my personal guide through all my trip! She gave us great insight into all the stops and also great recommendations on what not to miss. We had more than enough time at each stop to explore on our own, shop, and enjoy the sites. Our driver Gary took us swiftly and safely on the most beautiful journey throughout the countryside. Would recommend Megan and Gary for sure if you want to take this tour.

Perfect day trip to the Cotswolds - We had a lovely day visiting the Cotswolds with Megan and Gary. From the start directions to the bus and meet up times were very clear and the coach was modern and comfortable (with on board WiFi for the 2 hour drive). Megan was the perfect guide - knowledgeable, pleasant and there when you needed her. The pace of the tour was spot on with key landmarks and buildings pointed out but lots of time to enjoy the leisurely pace and natural beauty of the Cotswolds. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to see the countryside and get out of London for the day! And keep in mind our trip was on a damp, overcast late winter/early spring day and it was still fabulous.

Kevin, the tour guide,... - Kevin, the tour guide, and Gary, the driver, were both very professional and personable. Kevin's informational comments were enlightening, and Gary's driving was excellent. The three villages we stopped in were each different and the time spent were exactly right for an introduction to the area.

Great Day Out – Beautiful Villages and Excellent Service - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Cotswolds small group tour – special thanks to Ana & Sorin! Today we joined the Cotswolds Small Group Tour from London with Evan Evans Tours, and it was honestly one of the best day trips we’ve done in the UK. We visited some truly beautiful villages including Bibury, Burton-on-the-Water, and Burford, and every place was like a postcard. The scenery, the peaceful countryside, and the charming stone houses were absolutely unforgettable. From the beginning of the trip everything was very well organised. The timing was perfect and we had enough time to enjoy each village, walk around, take photos, and relax. It never felt rushed but also never felt like we were wasting time. The whole day was smooth and enjoyable. I want to give a special thank you to our guide Ana and our driver Sorin because they made this experience even better. 💛 Ana was truly wonderful. She was kind, friendly, and very supportive throughout the day. She explained everything clearly on the way, sharing interesting information about the villages, the history, and the area. The way she speaks is lovely and easy to understand, and she always made sure everyone was comfortable and happy. Also, I had a small problem today because I didn’t bring any cash, and at one point the toilet needed 20p. Ana helped me immediately without hesitation, which I really appreciated. It may seem like a small thing, but it made a big difference and showed how caring she is. She also helped take photos for us and made sure we captured beautiful memories. She is very professional, helpful, and thoughtful. 🚍 Sorin, our driver, also deserves a lot of praise. He has excellent driving skills and made the whole journey very smooth and safe. The drive was comfortable, and he managed the schedule perfectly so we arrived at each location at the right time. It was clear he is experienced and takes pride in his work. Overall, this tour was really fun, relaxing, and full of amazing views. The villages were stunning and the team was fantastic. I truly enjoyed every moment and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting London who wants to see the real beauty of the English countryside. Thank you again Ana and Sorin for making our trip so memorable! 😊
