Doing what: Warwick Castle, Stratford, Oxford and the Cotswolds Day Trip from London

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!

Doing what: Oxford, Cotswolds, Stratford-on-Avon and Warwick Castle Day Trip from London

A great trip to pack in a lot in a short amount of time. Our guide Nora (I hope that's right!) was natural and informative and pleased to share her passion and knowledge of the areas.
Warwick Castle has been bought by Madame Tussaudes which is made evident from the tacky figures and sensor activated sound but look past that and you'll see an incredible Medieval Castle that's worth the time. Stratford -on-Avon is a great spot for lunch and incredible for Shakespeare enthusiasts. The Cotswolds visit is but a drive through so sit on the right side on the bus and have your camera ready! Oxford was a nice last stop, I'd been there before but learnt a lot from out guide on this visit.

All in all expect to get a taste of these places. Plenty of time at Warwick Castle and Stratford-on-Avon and Oxford. A stop in the Costwolds for afternoon tea wouldn't go astray, returning and hour later wouldn't hurt.

Go for it!!

The trip was excellent and sites were wonderful. My only negative comments are small - - the tour guide really only guided us at Oxford, as both Stratford and Warwick were self-guided tours. Also, the Costwolds is not really a destination, as you simply zoom through the area at 100 kph. Arranging for a stop, even just 20 minutes, would have been nice.

I did not go on this tour as they called and said it was canceled, and instead got a lunch in the Costwolds Tour. They were very accommodating, but I would have preferred to see Oxford and Warwick Castle. I guess it was off season so they didn't have enough people.
