Discover the Medieval Charm and Rolling Hills of the Cotswolds on a Small Group Tour


The Cotswolds is a designated area of outstanding natural beauty, renowned for its rolling hills, traditional stone villages, and rich history as the heart of the medieval wool trade. This small group tour offers an intimate way to explore this charming region, moving away from the crowded tourist paths to provide a more authentic experience. Guests will discover how the area's medieval charm was preserved after being bypassed by Victorian railways, keeping its unique character intact.


During the late Victorian era, the region was rediscovered by the Arts and Crafts Movement and the Pre-Raphaelites, who established artisan workshops producing fine furniture, jewelry, and ceramics. This artistic legacy remains visible today in the local craftsmanship found throughout the villages. The tour visits iconic locations such as Bibury, Bourton-on-the-Water, and Stow-on-the-Wold, each offering a distinct glimpse into the architectural and cultural heritage that defines this picturesque part of the English countryside.


A key stop on the itinerary is Broadway Tower, a Victorian folly designed by the famous 18th-century landscape designer Capability Brown. Standing atop a hill, the tower offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, serving as a testament to the creative spirit of the era. The small group format allows for easy navigation through narrow village streets, ensuring that guests can spend quality time at each location without the constraints of a large coach tour.


Whether you are interested in the history of the wool industry, the beauty of traditional architecture, or the tranquility of the rural landscape, this day trip from London provides a comprehensive overview. The tour is designed to be enjoyable in all seasons, showcasing the timeless appeal of the Cotswolds. With expert guidance and a focus on hidden gems, this excursion is perfect for those looking to experience the quintessential beauty of rural England.

We had the most terrific time with Rory! He was friendly, knowledgeable and always went above and beyond to meet us where we were at whether up for more adventure or to wrap up earlier than scheduled. Our first time to the Cotswolds was made into a place we’d like to visit again much thanks to Rory! I have to also mention Cameron & Georgia did a wonderful job with the set up and coordination prior to our trip. They were quick to respond & had some really wonderful recommendations. I would absolutely recommend the teams services for your next trip to the Cotswolds.

Our day in Cotswolds was terrific!! Pick up from the train station was seamless and Rory took wonderful care of us along the way - we saw many towns along the way and the day is flexible enough to take time to shop and have a glass of wine in these cute little towns. Rory was extremely knowledgeable on each location and shared fun little gems on our journey. And he had umbrellas for us as it briefly rained mid-day which was very helpful. Thanks again!!

We booked Cam, our driver, to pick us up from London Heathrow and take us to our hotel, about 1.5 hours away. Cam was on time, very professional, and we made it to our hotel in due time. His excellent driving skills were proven again a couple days later when he toured us around the Cotswolds for a day. Cam was knowledgeable and polite and was able to accommodate and adapt to some unforeseen changes in our itinerary as well. Thank you, Cam. for the delightful day you gave us and then, at the end of our trip, a timely and well-driven drive back to the airport 5 days later.
