I have lived and worked in the South West of England for 16 years - much of that time as a broadcast journalist. So I know the people, places and culture of this region inside and out. My carefully curated, tried and tested Day Tours from Bath (see profile) allow you to visit the very best that this beautiful and historic region of England has to offer. Tour with me in the comfort of my luxury Mercedes touring vehicle and you will leave with memories that will last a lifetime. We'll explore stunning scenery, historic towns and villages, world famous sites and avoid the tourist places now overrun with coach tours from London. The UNESCO World Heritage City of Bath is the best base from which to explore The Cotswolds, Stonehenge, the hidden secrets of Cheddar Gorge, Glastonbury, and Wells (recently voted the UK's no. 1 visitor destination)… Jump on the direct train from London Paddington to Bath and let's begin the adventure! **All tours start and end in Bath or Bristol **Alternative nearby start/end locations can be discussed at the extra cost of a customised tour **London or Heathrow pickup/drop off is NOT available Choose from: - Private tour to Stonehenge and Avebury Stone Circles from Bath - Private tours to the Cotswolds from Bath - Private tours to Glastonbury, Wells and Cheddar Gorge from Bath - Private tour to Blenheim Palace from Bath - Private tour to Wales from Bath International Certification in Tour Guide Excellence from Aquila's Centre for Excellence; Member of Mayor of Bath's Corps of Honorary Guides; Local authority Operator, Driver and Vehicle Private Hire licences; Fully insured: 'Hire and Reward' and Public Liability'.

Overview of your Bath tour

Explore the beauty and charming character of the area of the Cotswolds, which lies just beyond Bath. This memorable day will feature visits to some of the region's hidden gems and prettiest villages, such as Castle Combe, Lacock, Bradford-on-Avon and the true 'Secret Garden' at Iford Manor. Wander back in time through medieval England and immerse yourself in the history and traditions of the Cotswolds. Enjoy an indulgent lunch at a traditional and renowned pub. This unrivalled private Cotswolds tour in a luxury car highlights the very best of this picturesque area and guarantees an unforgettable day.

Your Bath tour itinerary

The day begins in Castle Combe, which is surely one of the most photographed villages in all of England and often considered one of the very prettiest. Little has changed here for centuries - no street lights or TV aerials. This mediaeval gem is famous for its picturesque cottages and babbling brook. Explore the conservation village of Lacock. Unsurprisingly, the medieval homes and charming shops here are another very popular filming location and its former abbey is also the famed birthplace of photography. After lunch wander along the river and canal in Bradford-on-Avon, famous for the wool and weaving industry that spanned six centuries. Marvel at the town's medieval Tithe Barn and the colourful narrow boats moored in the canal. Iford Manor Gardens are a genuine hidden secret, where you can step into another world. This privately owned paradise, set within a breathtaking valley, was used to film “The Secret Garden” starring Colin Firth and also period drama series “Sanditon”.
