Your private day begins with a convenient pickup from your London hotel, home, or preferred address. Settle into your comfortable private vehicle and leave the city behind as your driver-guide takes you through the beautiful English countryside, sharing local stories and pointing out interesting sights along the way.
Your first stop is the picturesque Cotswolds, famous for rolling hills, charming villages, honey-coloured stone cottages and peaceful country lanes. Explore one or more of the region’s most beautiful villages, such as Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold or Bibury, depending on your preferences and the day’s schedule. Wander through historic streets, admire traditional architecture, browse independent shops and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of rural England. In Bourton-on-the-Water, stroll beside the River Windrush and its small stone bridges, while Stow-on-the-Wold offers a historic market square and characterful old buildings. If visiting Bibury, take time to admire its famous row of picturesque cottages and tranquil riverside setting. There will also be opportunities to stop for photographs and enjoy the scenery.
Continue to magnificent Blenheim Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. Admire the impressive Baroque architecture as you approach the palace, surrounded by sweeping parkland and landscaped gardens. Explore the grand exterior, formal gardens and beautiful grounds, or choose to visit the palace interiors. If you enter the palace, discover richly decorated state rooms, historic artwork, tapestries and fascinating stories connected with the Spencer-Churchill family. Entry is optional and can be arranged in advance. You may also have time to explore the nearby historic town of Woodstock.
Next, travel to Oxford, one of England’s most celebrated university cities. Explore its atmospheric streets, magnificent golden-stone buildings and historic university surroundings. See famous landmarks such as the Bodleian Library and Radcliffe Camera, while your driver-guide shares stories about Oxford’s centuries of academic tradition. Depending on opening times and your interests, you may also visit a historic college or simply enjoy a relaxed walk through the city centre.
After your Oxford exploration, sit back and enjoy the journey back to London. Your private driver-guide will ensure a comfortable return, with a stop along the way if needed. At the end of the experience, you’ll be dropped back at your chosen London address, bringing a memorable day of countryside scenery, grand heritage and historic English cities to a close.
The experience can be tailored to your interests, allowing you to spend more time exploring the villages, gardens, palace or Oxford according to your preferences and available time.
