From London: Oxford and Cotswolds Villages Day Trip

Trade the London crowds for a charming day trip to Oxford and the Cotswolds! Imagine yourself stepping back in time, exploring the ancient colleges of Oxford and then meandering through quintessential English villages nestled amongst rolling hills. This unforgettable adventure offers a delightful escape from the city's energy.

Escape the London bustle and journey into the heart of England's captivating countryside! This day trip whisks you away to Oxford, the prestigious university city, and two quintessential Cotswolds villages: Burford and Bibury. Our scenic route takes us northwest, traversing the stunning Chiltern Hills – a landscape so picturesque it's been the backdrop for beloved TV shows like *Midsomer Murders* and *Vicar of Dibley*. First, we arrive in Oxford. Explore the hallowed grounds of its ancient colleges, climb for breathtaking city views, or delve into the fascinating world of art and history at the Ashmolean Museum. The choice is yours! Next, we journey to Burford, often called the "Gateway to the Cotswolds." This charming market town overflows with character. Meander along its picturesque streets, browse unique shops, and perhaps indulge in a traditional English afternoon tea (at your own expense) at one of the delightful cafes. Our final stop is Bibury, a village so enchanting that William Morris declared it the prettiest in England, and even Henry Ford considered moving it, brick by brick, to America! Take a leisurely stroll to Arlington Row, a picture-perfect row of cottages that truly seems to have stepped out of a fairytale. After a day filled with breathtaking scenery and captivating history, relax and enjoy the comfortable ride back to London.
