England

Such an amazing bicycle tour. Green hills and sheep everywhere. The scenery was incredible and with our e-bikes we were able to truly enjoy bicycling the hills. Excellent and knowledgeable guides that were helpful in every way. I am always interested in the history and culture of a country and was pleased that our guides could share so much with the group. Such a fun and exciting trip!

The scenery and landscapes of the lake District are stunning. But it is a hilly ride and everyone in the group was very grateful to have E bikes. The accommodations were exemplary, the food was delicious and the guides did a wonderful job. I would recommend this trip in a heartbeat.

Nice trip on quiet rural roads with incredible views. Rolling countryside, lots of greenery, sheep with lambs, horse and beautiful fields. We had lovely weather, friendly guides and a great mix of people. This was my first trip with an e-biike, and i glad I had it for going up the hills.

A wonderful adventure for this first time VBT traveler! Seamless travel support from start to finish. While some accommodations were more quaint than we are used to, they provided fine service. The scenery and villages were wonderful and worth the sometimes challenging routes (traffic and some significant hills) - an e-bike might be a good option for anyone who does not routinely take long rides on hilly terrain. Our guides were skilled and took good care to ensure safe travel. Great trip!

My husband and I did this self-guided tour in early September and absolutely loved it. Country Walkers did an impeccable job taking care of every detail--booking hotels, moving our suitcases between hotels, and, best of all, the "route notes" book was so detailed and had everything we needed from step-by-step directions and restaurant suggestions to history and ideas for things to do. It felt like a wonderful adventure following the famous paths through sheep pastures and little forest thickets, past gardens and ancient churches, and climbing over or around all the different gates. It was often overcast and misty in the mornings, but the mid-day sun burned it all away. Our highlights are choosing to stop for an hour to check out the Hailes Abbey Museum and rubbing elbows with some locals at the only pub in a tiny village. So many great memories! We liked the intimate experience of doing a self-guided trip and the independence (without the planning!) that it provided. We spent some extra days in London at the end of our trip...that was just icing on the cake.

What a fantastic trip this was. This was my 6th time going to England, but my first for the Cotswold region and what an extraordinary time it was. The food was fantastic, everywhere you looked the views were spectacular. It was fantastic trip which I would do again in a heart beat.
