Stunning Cotswolds
Pamela_M
, Apr 2022
Excellent tour . Mark, our driver for the day, picked us up promptly from our hotel and was very friendly and chatty. We visited lots of stunning places in the Cotswolds as well as a few that where off the beaten track. Mark was very informative about all the planned stops and the surrounding areas and also amused us with some quirky activities held in the Cotswolds. Every stop was timed to perfection allowing for refreshments, lunch or browsing the stunning villages . I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend ‘Go Cotswolds’ as the whole day was faultless. Thank you Mark for an extremely memorable day .
Response from Host , Apr 2022
Thank you so much for your lovely review Pamela, it's so great to hear that you enjoyed your Go Cotswolds tour with Mark! We're so grateful that you took the time to share your experience with the Viator community - please visit us again next time you're here, and perhaps take one of our other tours!

The driver Mark was funny and engaged with all of us. The area is stunning. I enjoyed the tips that weee given to us by Mark and can’t wait to come back when it’s warmer
Response from Host , Nov 2021
Thank you for your lovely review Veena! You certainly picked a chilly day to visit us in the Cotswolds, but not many visitors get to see it all covered in snow so you've experienced something quite special! It was a pleasure to have you and Tara on our tour on Saturday, and we look forward to hopefully seeing you again soon.

Our driver Tim was great. Pick up on time at our hotel, from the area, so lots of information. Covered a number of villages and towns. Very reasonable price, would highly recommend this tour with Go Cotswolds.

Must visit tour- Very well planned
Manas
, Jul 2021
It was a wonderful, well planned tour. Colin was a fantastic guide. He had a great knowledge about the Cotswold, local places and explained everything very nicely and kept engaging with everyone. We had a small group of 10 in a mini bus and had good halt at the key spots to explore places further. This was my first solo trip in a tour and it was amazing. Cotswold is very picturesque and this is must visit tour. Thank you Colin and the team.
Response from Host , Jul 2021
What a lovely review, Manas, thank you so much for taking the time to write it! I'm so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your day with Colin on your first tour travelling solo! Our team have all travelled the world solo, so we always try to do our very best to make sure that people who are travelling alone feel comfortable and safe and that they have a great time!

Fantastic experience from beginning to end. Tom was the perfect host. He was very informative, and we learned a great deal. There was plenty of stops to go exploring and get fed and watered. The Cotswolds is very picturesque and if you get the chance, definitely go on this trip. Absolutely brilliant.
Response from Host , Jun 2021
Thank you Michele for your lovely review! It was a pleasure to have you and Andrew on our tour last week, and we hope you enjoyed your stay at White Sails in Stratford-upon-Avon! I'm absolutely delighted that you enjoyed your day with Tom - "the perfect host"! Wow! Doesn't get better than that. I might be biased as he is my husband, but I have to agree with you :-) Thank you for recommending us to the Viator community, it's very much appreciated.
Really lovely day

A very enjoyable tour! 12 of us on a mini van meant we had a small, nice group with better access to places than going on a bigger tour bus. The tour guide, Colin, was knowledgeable and upbeat, with lots of great recommendations. Would highly recommend this tour!

Highly recommend this tour! Tom is a fantastic guide, so knowledgeable and pleasant! We had a great day and have seen so much of the area. It was the first ever organised tour I've been on where you are not taken to the shops for hours because they've got arranged deals with the tour agency!

Tom was a fantastic guide! I loved that this was a small group with a local man. Tom took us to the highlights of the northern Cotswolds. He was great at teaching us about the area and then letting us go and explore. I thought this was a perfect way to get an introduction to a gorgeous area!

My wife and I had a fantastic and memorable tour. A wonderful part of the UK. Tom the owner and our guide was an excellent host and we were collected from outside our caravan park. Our tour was fully booked and all of our needs were catered for and we never felt rushed. Tom was more than happy to assist with personal photo requests and he took us to amazing places where we would not be able to access with our hired mobile home. We would highly recommend this tour.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
