The tour

Oxford + Cotswolds

The single most requested combination we run. Oxford in the morning while the colleges are quiet, then west into the Cotswolds for the afternoon, ending with the villages at their best in late light. It only works with a car; there is no sensible public transport between the two.

Why this tour

  • Oxford and the Cotswolds are forty minutes apart — the pairing wastes almost no driving time.
  • Morning colleges and afternoon villages avoids the crowds at both.
  • One day covers the two things most first-time visitors want outside London.

Key stops

  • Radcliffe Camera and the Bodleian quarter
  • Christ Church and Broad Street
  • Burford or Bibury
  • Bourton-on-the-Water
  • Stow-on-the-Wold

Questions

Oxford + Cotswolds: frequently asked

Is ten hours enough for both?
Yes, comfortably, provided we start early. Oxford takes the morning and three Cotswold villages fill the afternoon.
Which villages will we see?
Usually Bibury, Bourton-on-the-Water and Stow-on-the-Wold, adjusted on the day for crowds and weather.
Can we add Blenheim Palace?
Blenheim works better on its own pairing — Oxford and Blenheim, or Blenheim and the Cotswolds.
