💬 Why We Recommend Go Cotswolds Tours
We’ve had the pleasure of joining Go Cotswolds on more than one occasion, and we’ve loved every minute.
Their tours are thoughtfully designed, fun, and relaxed, with just the right balance of structure and free time. You’ll visit postcard-perfect villages, hear local stories and enjoy the kind of personalised service that only a small group tour can offer.
They’re also incredibly well-reviewed by members of our UK and London Travel Planning communities, with many saying it was a highlight of their entire UK trip.
“It was absolutely the highlight to me, the highlight of the trip because I’ve wanted to see the Cotswolds for so long. You have a really good amount of time in, in all the little places.
And it was, it was perfect….I loved the size of it because it’s a very intimate group and it’s not. You’re not on a bus with 40 people, you’re 16 people.
Both guides that we had were from there. They, you know, one of them grew up there and the other one had lived there for 30 plus years. So they genuinely love talking about the Cotswolds.. teaching people history.
I’m so glad that we did those tours. I would never have seen that much on my own.“

📸 We’ve Done It Too!





We only recommend tours we know you will love, and Go Cotswolds is one of our favourites.
I’ve joined both their Secret Cotswolds tour and their Bath Christmas Market tour (and took my Mum too). We loved them both.
Each time, we came away with beautiful memories, new discoveries and friendly chats with their fantastic guides.
“Go Cotswolds tours are the perfect way to experience the region without a car. Friendly, knowledgeable guides and picture-perfect stops all day long.”
