Bath & Cotswolds: A 6-Day Immersive Experience


Journey through the heart of England on a beautifully curated 6-day tour blending countryside charm, ancient wonders, and rich local culture. Discover the storybook scenery of the Cotswolds, from iconic villages like Chipping Campden and Lower Slaughter to hidden gems like Snowshill and Stanton, with stops at traditional pubs and cosy tearooms.

Step back in time with expert-led visits to Stonehenge, Avebury, and Salisbury Cathedral, home to the Magna Carta. Wander the elegant streets of Bath, explore the Roman Baths, and shop in Tetbury’s antique stores and the Royal Highgrove Shop.

Enjoy a behind-the-scenes tour of a private Elizabethan manor still lived in by the same family, and experience hands-on farming life—from milk tastings to calf-rearing—at an organic dairy. Along the way, explore historic film locations, scenic walking trails, and the vibrant food scenes of Bath, Bristol, and the South Cotswolds, all guided by passionate locals.
