Full Day: Hidden Cotswolds Private Tour from Bath for 2-8
Overview
Embark on a private, guided journey into the stunning southern Cotswolds, exploring its idyllic villages and rich history on a tour like no other. Available year-round with 9:00 am pickup from your Bath accommodation, this experience takes you off the beaten track along ancient Roman roads and winding lanes. Visit Castle Combe—often called England’s prettiest village—for a guided walk through its hidden gems. Discover the story of a once-great town tied to England’s birth, with tales of a saint and king, enjoy coffee in an 800-year-old inn, and admire a nearly 1,000-year-old Abbey. Lunch is at a charming country inn (not included), offering you the freedom to choose from a curated menu. You’ll also explore a peaceful rural hamlet with centuries-old cottages and a timeless atmosphere. Designed to showcase the best of the southern Cotswolds, the tour includes quaint villages, historic churches, scenic stops, and an authentic taste of local life.
