Private Day Trip to Oxford, the Cotswolds & Stratford
Description
Visit the birthplace of William Shakespeare, discover Cotswold villages including Burford and Stow-on-the-Wold, and stroll among the secluded cloisters of Oxford. Travel in a small group with your private driver/guide for a more personal experience, and reach parts of the pretty countryside the larger coaches can’t pass. This tour gives you the flexibility to explore at your own pace, with the added benefit of expert guidance when planning your trip.
Service Options
We have three services, tailored to cater to a range of budgets and preferences.
Driver only
An experienced driver who is familiar with our touring routes, but does not guide or offer commentary. Should you book this service, you will visit Stratford upon Avon, the Cotswolds and Oxford independently.
Driver/guide
With this service level, your experienced driver will guide and offer commentary from the vehicle.
Driver with guide
This is one of our most popular options. You’ll have an experienced driver and a separate professional guide on your tour, who can guide from the vehicle and lead you on walking tours in Stratford-upon-Avon, Stow-on-the-Wold, and Oxford.
When booking this service, you’ll need to allow a seat for the guide. For example, booking this service for 8-16 people will allow seats for a party of 15 passengers plus the guide.
