A thoroughly enjoyable day. My partner and I decided on the basic tour that did not include entrance fees to the sites. However the opportunity to see Warwick Castle from the outside was good for us and to see the township itself was our preference, as was Stratford-upon-Avon and Oxford. Stratford-upon-Avon was a great little town with character. We enjoyed all of the sites and recommend this day out. Initially we thought 10 hours would be a long day, however we had a great pace to see the sights and the day went quickly. Sheila our tour guide was great, she was professional, informative and a delight. A memorable experience and we're very glad that we did the trip.

Excellent tour; great escort, terrific value. Warwick Castle a bit of a disappointment. Too commercialized. Tour Over-all well worthwhile.

Very relaxed pace, which I enjoyed! A lot of the tours seemed very rushed (only 30-45 minutes at each location). Warwick Castle was very cool, as was Stratford and Oxford. The Cotswolds really should be removed from the title. You drive through them, but you really don't see anything. Plus you'll probably be napping anyway!

Great day - well recommend this tour if you only have a little time to see some English country side.
Tour guide was very knowledgeable which added to the experience. Warwick Castle has a lot of narrow winding stairs so one needs to be reasonably fit.
We did not realise that we would not be dropped back at our hotel of departure though.

Excellent trip. Warwick Castle was definitely my favorite stop of the day. Our tour guide Phil was excellent as well. Definitely recommend this trip.

Wow! Warwick Castle is exactly like I imagined a Medieval Castle. There was some pretty cheesy parts, but the landscape and tower are great and the employees are very knowledgeable. The timing on Stratford was great - it was Will's birthday. I appreciated getting to see how 16th century peasants lived. We only drove by the cottage, but the driver was good enough to show us many thatched roofs and the Costwolds tour was great. We took a side trip to see a couple of miscellaneous items and our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Oxford is equally beautiful and the timing of the tour was just right, not too rushed, not too slow. I'd say this was definitely a highlight!

A fantastic day! Our guide was so informative and spoke most of the way to our first stop of Oxford and on each drive to Stratford-on-Avon and Warwick Castle. She was funny and very friendly. Both her and the driver took time to ensure we were comfortable (i.e. air con etc) and helped with information on the other tours Evans offer. Nothing was too much trouble.
You don't actually stop in the Cotswolds, but they slowed down for important landmarks and we still felt as though we'd seen the gorgeous scenery.
We were allowed to explore Warwick Castle at our leisure which was nice.
I would definitely book this tour again with Evans and recommend any of their products.

We thoroughly enjoyed the tour especially the expert commentary from Rodney our guide.
Perhaps three places in one day is too rushed and we would have preferred to have only visited Oxford and Stratford and left Warwick Castle for another day.

A great tour with all sorts of information. You need to be fit for thte climb around the Warwick castle battlements but it is worth the effort

This is a great trip, especially if you have kids. Oxford is amazing to see and hear the histroy from your guide. Stratford on Avon is great with visiting Shakespears boyhood home and Warwick castle is the best to visit as it is great to see and they also do interactive activities for the kids such as sword fights, bow and arrow shooting and jousting. Get Richard as your tour guide, he is fantastic.

Short Version: Awesome day, saw A LOT, and GREAT tour guide.
The details: First of all it was wonderfully convenient to get picked up right from our hotel in the morning, giving us time to eat breakfast in the hotel first. This tour was a whirlwind. We went to Oxford first. Our tour guide was just fantastic and full of information. We walked the magnificent campus for about an hour and a half. Next we drove through the breathtaking Cotswold hills region with our tour guide giving wonderful and interesting tidbits the whole drive to Stratford-on-Avon. We again had around an hour and half or so to see Shakespeare's cottage and grad a quick lunch at a local restaurant. The last stop was Warwick castle. This was the one place I wish we had more time at, but again not the fault of the tour guide. If you go on a all day trip with this many stops, you have to understand some places will get short changed. However, this was a great way to get all these great experiences in one day and leave my wife and I more time in London to explore the city!

Lovely bus tour and much to see. The lady serving us with commentary was good too although at times she spoke too much. Oxford and the Warwick castle are 'must-see' items. Do not expect too much from the Harry Potter hype of the beautiful dining hall in Christchurch hall but it is certainly worth seeing. We did it in May and enjoyed it very much.
