    Not only was the guide knowledgeable and pleasant, but she was also helpful and kind. Needless to say that the bus driver in turn was hilarious. They both made my experience unique. Claps Claps Claps.

    Nothing as my tour was cancelled! I therefore missed out on seeing the Cotswolds and where Downton Abby was filmed, which I had booked my visit around. I was not given other options for the same tour. I ended up taking a train to Blenheim Palace on my own. I requested a refund immediately upon notification of cancellation and received a response that they would work on it, but have not received a refund yet. And now you are asking how the tour went? This is nuts.
