  • Visit the grandiose Blenheim Palace - the birthplace of Winston Churchill, plus the charmingly quaint villages of Bibury and Bourton-on-the-Water
  • Explore the village of Bampton, the location where many of the scenes from the hit TV series Downton Abbey were filmed

Leave the city smog behind and breathe easy in the calm British countryside. A comfy coach will spirit you across verdant rolling hills and bucolic landscapes on an excursion into the heartland of Britain. Visit Blenheim Palace, one of the largest stately homes in the UK and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. Meander around quaint villages, see majestic architecture and many well-known landmarks from the popular TV series Downton Abbey.

Explore the state rooms of Blenheim Palace, furnished with some of the most impressive private collections of paintings in Europe. Take a stroll through the landscaped gardens and admire the beauty of the Rose Garden and the Water Terraces.

Visit the charming village of Bibury, whose picturesque setting along the River Coln has been the backdrop for blockbuster films including Stardust and Bridget Jones's Diary. Admire Arlington Row, the quaint group of weaver's cottages dating back to the 16th Century.

Then it's on to Bourton-on-the-Water, regularly voted one of the prettiest villages in England. The stone bridges that stretch across the gently flowing River Windrush make it hard to top.

Wander around the village of Bampton, the location of many landmarks featured in the hit TV series Downton Abbey. You'll see the buildings that played the part of Isobel Crawley's home, plus the Downton Cottage Hospital, the church, and also the location for two fictional local pubs: The Grantham Arms and The Dog & Duck.

The tour left on time, the bus was comfortable and had A/C. Our tour guide, Andy, was knowledgeable and fun. Blenheim Palace was spectacular and we had almost 2 1/2 hours there- which was great. The Bourton on Water stop was a lovely place to see but we only had about an hour there. We had time for lunch and that was all. Stopping in Bampton was pretty but we only had a few minutes there and we felt really rushed. I think the tour would be best if it was just Blenheim Palace and the Bourton on Water stop. Overall it was a lovely day.

妻と参加しましたが、英語が話せない妻のためにツアーガイドさんが日本語を話してくれ、とても助かりました。 おかげで、とても楽しめました。 コッツウォルズはボートンオンザウォーター、バンプトンでした。 ツアーの説明にはバイブリーも記載されていましたが訪問はなかったです。 ボートンオンザウォーターのどちらかという注意書きが欲しかったです。 ブレナム宮殿もすばらしく、満足のツアーでした。
