Escape the hustle and bustle of London and spend the day exploring the historic city of Oxford and the traditional stone villages of the Cotswolds on a day trip.
Embark on a day trip from London and discover the charms of the English countryside. Explore the university city of Oxford and 2 storybook towns of the Cotswolds, Burford and Bibury.
Head northwest out of London, passing through the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The picturesque countryside here has inspired the television shows Midsomer Murders and Vicar of Dibley.
Your first stop is Oxford, and take time to explore the precincts of the many colleges, climb to the vantage points to admire the skyline, or see the art and antiquities collections in the Ashmolean Museum.
Continue to Burford, the “Gateway to the Cotswolds,” and immerse yourself in the charm of this small market town with enormous character and depth. Wander along the main street, lined with picturesque shops and cafes where you can try a traditional English afternoon tea (not included).
Then, make the short journey to Bibury, described by William Morris as the prettiest village in England, and Henry Ford wanted to dismantle it and ship it back to the USA. Enjoy time here to stroll to the famous and fairytale-like Arlington Row.
After a full day exploring the city of Oxford and the villages of the Cotswolds, relax aboard a comfortable return journey to London.
