This was the 5th Back Roads tour that I did back to back and being a short tour it was the perfect way to end my time in the UK. Terry Gibson is an excellent guide. He is very knowledgeable and took on board any requests from the guests in the group. He happily tweaked the itinerary when everyone expressed an interest in something other than what was detailed in the itinerary. He was happy to help guests if they needed it as was Phil the driver. They worked well together as a team to help make lovely memories for our group. Thank you Back Roads :-).
Thoroughly enjoyable trip. I enjoyed the company of the people on the tour. The tour guide was very knowlegable and pleasant
Excellent tour guide with a passion for history and the UK, presented in a relaxed but professional way. Choice of towns in the Cotswolds was excellent. I thoroughly recommend this tour.
We had an excellent tour led by Terry who was very responsive in adjusting the tour when he could to make us happy. Lots of little villages in the Cotswolds made us very happy.
Our family of four - Dad, Mom and 2 adult daughters enjoyed the Heart of England tour with Blue Roads Touring. We travelled through many beautiful towns and villages, with plenty of time to explore. Highlights include Oxford University, the Cotswolds, Stratford, and Bath. Accommodations were excellent and very well located. Meals included were first rate. Above all, the guide Justin and driver Simon made our trip memorable. They listened to our interests and went above and beyond our expectations! A++
A very enjoyable trip. Covered a lot of the great sites. Vehicle was good for the narrow roads. (Only suggestion would be to have Wi-Fi on board) Group size about right. The Guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable and entertaining.
All good
It was a good tour, we saw and experienced as much as we could absorb. Recommended.
The tip provided more experiences than I had anticipated. Also, Terry was an exceptional guide. He was informative and caring.
The Blue-Roads Heart of England tour was wonderful and my highlights was the Shakespeare history in Stratford Upon Avon and the gorgeous Cotswold villages and the yellow stone dwellings.
