Superausflug mit Paul, ein enorm gut informierter, sehr netter Guide. Die Reisegruppe mit 12 Personen war genau richtig, da die großen Busse auf Grund der kleinen Straßen nicht alle Orte anfahren können! War ein besonderes Erlebnis, trotz Schneefall und dem daher drohendem Wegfall von Bibury und Bourton on the Water hat Paul es geschafft, uns alles erleben zu lassen! Toller Einsatz!!!!! Es war ein wunderschöner, unvergesslicher Ausflug!!!!

Buena, en inglés, para quien no hable inglés, no la recomiendo, no entenderá nada…. Pueblos encantadores, guía muy bueno, pero todo es en inglés y el bus es pequeño si eres mi alto irás comprimido

I enjoyed the trip a lot! Paul ensured the trip was organized, we knew exactly where we were going, what to expect and when to be back. I felt very comfortable throughout the day, and so inspired by Paul’s evident love for the region and knowledge of its history that he shared. The small bus also had the advantage of reaching smaller towns or side roads, which only added to the overall experience. Would recommend to anyone wanting to explore Cotswolds!
