Cotswolds Private Tour - The Hearth of England

Visiting the Cotswolds is like going back in time.

Set amid rolling hills dotted with grazing sheep and cows, the towns and villages in the Cotswolds are pretty much English perfection. Thatched roof cottages, picture-perfect farmland, crumbling castles, towns made entirely of honey-colored Cotswold stone.

During the medieval period, native Cotswold sheep were famous throughout Europe for their heavy fleeces and high quality of wool. Cotswold wool commanded a high price and the wealth generated by the wool trade enabled wealthy traders to leave their mark by building fine houses and wonderful churches, known as "wool churches". Even today, sheep on the hillside is one of the classic Cotswold images.

For overseas visitors the Cotswold area is convenient for London and offers what many people portray as typical English countryside with picturesque villages, historic churches and peaceful surroundings.

Explore the English paradise full of charming little hamlets.

London is an amazing city, but visiting it for the first time can be an overwhelming experience because of its size and wide range of attractions. Or, perhaps you are visiting with friends, colleagues or family, some of whom have already seen the city, so you are looking for a solution to the problem of seeing the classic sights without making the others bored.

Either way, I am happy to make a customised a tour for you and depending on your requests, we can have an itinerary that includes only the 'must see' major sights, both historic and royal, or can design one that includes the lesser-known attractions too.

Why take a walking tour?
I have always believed that walking is the best way to get to know a city. On a walking tour we can stop any time and anywhere and not just to take photos, but to look up and take in the sights. London's architecture as well as its backstreets are full of hidden gems and messages that we can access and decipher only on foot.

Westminster Abbey and the "Corridors of Power" Private Tour.

The area known as Westminster in London is a place of huge historical significance for the country. Composed of great institutions and famous streets, many visitors will see each part in isolation. This tour is different; it brings the separate elements together creating a more rounded picture. Westminster Abbey is a fabulous building of historic significance for the country as a whole. It is the site for royal occasions, weddings, coronations and burials. The Houses of Parliament, also known as the Palace of Westminster, symbolises Great Britain. The decisions made within its rooms as well as in the thoroughfare of Whitehall, sometimes known as the "Corridors of Power" have shaped Britain.

Together we'll explore the area whilst I bring the stories of buildings, memorials and influential historic characters together. By the end of the tour you'll see how this small patch of land has been the epicentre of power having "punched beyond its weight" in its influence in the UK as well as across the world.
