This was a really fantastic trip that gave a little taste of the landscape and character of England beyond the city of London. There was just enough time to explore Warwick Castle. In Stratford, there was a bit of time to stroll around town after seeing Shakespeare's birthplace. In Oxford, our tour guide gave us a really nice walking tour with lots of neat information. She was charming and engaging throughout the day. The stop for lunch at a pub in the Cotswolds called White Hart was nice, and the apple pie was superb. All in all, it was a busy but value-packed day trip.

Great guide and enough time for Warwickk Castle and tratford. I wouldhave liked a little bit more time for Oxford, but it's not a big thing. Just note that lunch is excluded and the lunch stop is in the middle of nowhere, so you have to eat there or grab something in Stratford and wait around for everyone else to finish.

A varied cultural experience, with wonderful guided information. Scenery is wonderful, after the bustling traffic experience of theLlondon Centre. Ideal for people coming to London for a 7 day holiday wanting a more realistic taste of historical England!!

A packed day full of various activities from the historic wanderings through the walls of Warwick Castle, through the literary reminiscencies of Shakespeare's birthplace, ending up with the excellent architectural structures of Oxford University, Christchurch and Hall visits. Unforgettable !!!!

We had the most awesome tour guide ever on our tour. He set the bar so high and he gave us so much information. He knew the route like the back of his hand and told us things we probably never would've heard from other tour guides. Warwick Castle was cool, definately if you have young kids, because there's a lot of interactive re-enactment stuff going on and people in costume etc. The waxworks inside the castle are amazingly realistic should be since they're done by Madame Tussauds. Stratford was also cool, wish we could've explored the town more and I would've liked to see Anne Hathaway's cottage too, but we didn't even drive by it. It doesn't take long to explore Shakespeare's House, then you're free to visit the many shops along the very tourist-oriented pedestrian street just outside his house. The pub lunch was good price not included, we probably could have eaten cheaper elsewhere but there's nothing else to do in this tiny town, so probably safe to stick with the pub lunch. Oxford was cool too, especially if you're Harry Potter fan! We were pretty much driving through "The Cotswolds" all day, but didn't really stop anywhere to enjoy the villages, so if you have your heart set on that, I might do a separate Cotswolds only tour, but we were perfectly satisfied with everything we saw, and even had a quick photo stop at a really quaint looking thatched roof cottage. All in all a great tour, and we were happy we got a mini-coach max 25 people rather than a huge coach, so less people!

Super guide. He was full of interesting information. He made it very enlightening and enjoyable. And the driver was also great! The only suggestion would be to work out a stop even if you don't get off the bus to get a decent photo of a thatched roof cottage.

This was a great tour. We saw some of the nicest highlights of the English countryside and took wonderful pictures. The time at each stop was just enough to get a good feel for the location before moving on. Lunch was typical English pub fare and, although the menu choices were different than my daughter was expecting, a simple note on the pre-order sheet that the tour guide passed through the motor coach en route ensured an acceptable lunch item for her. My only regret is that we only got to visit William Shakespeare's birthplace and a few shops in Stratford. I would have liked an additional stop or two in Stratford to see the church where he's buried as well as a visit to Anne Hathaway's cottage. Our final location of the day was Oxford, and the guide was very knowledgeable about the town and the colleges. Unfortunately, at our stop in Oxford, my husband became ill and could not take the walking tour part of the visit as there was a lot of walking. The motor coach driver was very attentive and took good care of my husband, even offering him a cup of tea to help soothe his upset stomach. It was a very nice day with a caring and concerned guide and driver. Highly recommended for a nice day out.

I really enjoyed the trip. We had a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and kind person. I learned a lot from him about these historic places as well as the history of England. Due to the rain we did have much time for walking in Stratford, but rest of tour was excellent. Food was good, nice choice.
