Bourton-on-the-Water

Departing from our pick up point on St Giles, we'll leave the city of Oxford behind and head out to the beautiful Cotswolds countryside. A journey of 1 hour brings us to the beautiful and very popular Cotswold village of Bourton-on-the-Water. Here, pretty Cotswold stone bridges cross the crystal waters of the River Windrush. For many, this is the ‘must-see’ destination in the Cotswolds! Grab a takeaway coffee while you take a relaxing stroll along the river, browse for gifts or take morning tea in one of many tea-rooms and cafés – if you have time after taking alllll the photos, that is!

Stow-on-the-Wold

Leaving Bourton-on-the-Water, a short 15-minute journey will bring us to the ancient market town of Stow-on-the-Wold. The highest town in the Cotswolds, here they say "Stow-on-the-Wold where the wind blows cold" - but don't let a little breeze put you off! Stow-on-the-Wold is a bustling Cotswolds market town, steeped in history and with wonderful independent shops to explore. Don’t miss the famous ‘Tolkien door’ at St. Edward’s Church, rumoured to inspire The Lord of the Rings.

Stratford-upon-Avon

1j 45m

Departing Stow, we'll travel 45 minutes from the Cotswolds into Warwickshire, and the home town of the world's greatest playwright. First, we’ll drive you around the perimeter of Stratford-upon-Avon to help you get orientated. Then, we’ll drop you off in the touristic heart of the town, and you’ll have around 1 hour 45 minutes of free time to explore at your leisure. A short stroll from our drop off/pick up point, you’ll find Shakespeare’s Birthplace (entry fee applies, not included), as well as numerous cafés, bakeries, shops and street entertainers. Don’t miss the beautiful Waterside area, where you can admire the swans and canal boats on the river Avon, take a scenic stroll, or climb the tower at The Royal Shakespeare Theatre for incredible views (it’s free!).

Oxford

We'll depart Stratford-upon-Avon at approximately 3.00pm, and make our way back to Oxford. We'll drop you off back where you started, near the Ashmolean Museum. The journey takes 1-1.5 hours, depending on traffic.
