Oxford, Stratford, Costwolds and Warwick Castle

Journey back in time to Merrie Olde England with this fascinating day trip taking in Oxford, the Cotswolds, Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick Castle. This 11-hour escorted tour offers intriguing insights of aspects of the country and its lifestyle that few visitors ever get to see.

Being a centre of learning for more than 900 years has bequeathed Oxford with countless faculties, halls, libraries, chapels and lodgings, earned it the soubriquet of City of Dreaming Spires. Enjoy a gentle walking tour through narrow alleys and historic squares. See the Bodleian Library, the splendid college courtyards and visit Christ Church, the grandest college of them all.

The rolling hills of the Cotswolds are one of England’s most picturesque locations. The area is a charming blend of breathtaking natural scenery, sleepy villages and bustling market towns.

Follow in the footsteps of young Shakespeare with a guided tour of Stratford-Upon-Avon. Visit the half-timbered house where he was born in 1564 and also the half-timbered Anne Hathaway's Cottage, where his wife’s family lived.

Dating from when Normans and Saxons battled for control of England, Warwick Castle has all the features a castle should have: walls, towers, a barbican, a dungeon, a vast central courtyard and even a mill. It is stunningly located on the banks of the River Avon, an area of unrivalled pastoral beauty. Visit the Great Hall and be transported back to days of knights in shining armour
