Oxford, The Cotswolds and Stratford upon Avon

A full day tour to the home of some of our best loved authors: Oxford, Stratford upon Avon and a scenic drive through the Cotswolds.

Included Highlights:

    Walking tour of Oxford Guided tour of Christchurch (see where Harry Potter was filmed) Visit Shakespeare’s Birthplace in historic Stratford upon Avon

    Visit Anne Hathaway's Cottage First-Class luxury motor-coach and the services of a Professional Blue Badge Guide

Oxford We begin our day travelling across the Chiltern Hills to Oxford, the 'City of Dreaming Spires,' whose hushed courtyards have inspired generations of scholars including Bill Clinton and writers, Lewis Carroll who wrote 'Alice in Wonderland', C.S. Lewis who wrote 'Chronicles of Narnia' and the immortal J.R.R. Tolkein, author of 'Lord of the Rings’. On the walking tour you'll visit Christchurch, where Harry Potter scenes were filmed, see the Bodleian Library and the picture-perfect college courtyards for which Oxford is justifiably famous.

Cotswolds Steeped in history and heritage, the area of England known as the Cotswolds is a charming blend of cottages with honey-coloured walls and thatched roofs, market towns with crooked half-timbered houses lining the High Street, and ancient stone crosses, all set in the gently rolling hills ('wolds') that are so typically English in character. The Cotswolds landscape has been shaped by its long history as a centre of wool production, your Guide will tell you all about the 'Cotswold Lion!'

Stratford-upon-Avon is renowned for being the birthplace of the world-famous playwright William Shakespeare. We'll visit the Tudor-style birthplace of William Shakespeare, gaining a fascinating insight into his childhood with its typical parlour, bedrooms, kitchen, buttery and the glove-maker's workshop used by John, Shakespeare's father. There'll be time to explore this charming market town, its streets lined with unusual shops and boutiques.

ANNE HATHAWAY'S COTTAGE This picture-postcard half-timbered childhood home of William Shakespeare's wife is set in lovely surroundings and contains a treasure-trove of historic domestic artefacts.
