This trip was so beautiful. As it was the first trip I have taken with VBT I did not know what to expect. It was above my expectations. Jago and Carolina were helpful and were always there for us. I would recommend VBT and the Northern England and Scotland trip.
England
Better than expected
First time, Idaho
England & Scotland: Lake District to Edinburgh
One of THE BEST biking experiences Ever!
VBT provided us with an outstanding biking experience in Northern England and Scotland! They really mapped out an exceptional route, covering incredible countryside, variety and experience. This rates as one of our topmost biking experiences. And we've done many! It was an all inclusive spectacular trip. Many thanks! Biff & Mimi

Great way to explore the Cotswolds.
This was our first VBT tour and it won’t be our last. The GPS directions were easy and amazing. The logistics were flawless making each day a new, exciting and carefree adventure. Will and Dan were superb guides keeping us safe and informed throughout the tour. This was a great way to explore the Cotswold.

Beautiful countryside, charming hotels and restaurants. The bicycling was more difficult than I expected, and the traffic was terrible.

Cream Tea, Charming Gardens, Lovely Walks
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.

A Fantastic Trip
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.
