Guided Tour of Stratford Upon Avon and Cotswolds
Get away from the frenetic rush of the city with our private driver-guided tour to Shakespeare’s hometown – the beautiful Stratford-Upon-Avon, and explore England’s largest area of outstanding natural beauty, the Cotswolds.
Upon collection from your accommodation in London, you will enjoy the benefit of your guide’s insight and knowledge of Bard’s life as you travel to Stratford-Upon-Avon where Shakespeare was born and grew up. Discover the many surviving buildings and sights that would have been so familiar to the Bard during his formative years in this historic old town.
Your driver-guide will then take you to the Cotswolds – England’s largest area of outstanding natural beauty. See the picture-postcard version of England’s green and pleasant land realized in front of your eyes as your guide delivers you to medieval villages and towns where it seems the beautiful architecture has been untouched by the passing centuries. Enjoy a meal and drink in an ancient English pub while taking in the gorgeous rolling hills and scenery before your private guide takes you back to your accommodation for the evening in our stylish executive vehicle.
