点评:We had a brilliant experience with Cotswolds Tours and Travel and would highly recommend. My daughter wanted to explore the Cotswolds for her 17th birthday weekend and as we’d never been to that part of the UK before, we didn’t know where to stay, and what to see to make the most of our short stay. All we knew is that we enjoyed watching Clarksons Farm! Eddie recommended a bespoke Clarksons Farm tour which sounded great. A few days before we were due to arrive, the weather forecast looked dreadful and snow may have made the tour impossible. Katie at Cotswolds Tours and Travel kept us fully updated and suggested alternative dates, lengths of tours etc. Her communication with us was excellent. In the event, the snow wasn’t as bad as the forecasters had predicted and the tour went ahead as planned.
Mark was our tour guide and he was fantastic - impossible to fault. He arrived early, was interesting, funny, highly knowlegable and relaxed - everything you want in a tour guide. He took us to Broadway Tower, Diddly Squat Farm (just as Jeremy Clarkson and Lisa turned up - perfect timing, Mark!) , the Farmers Dog Pub, and several beautiful villages, breweries, places of interest. It was a phenomenal day and when we got back to the Broadway Hotel (recommended by Eddie and the perfect place to stay) 8 hours after the tour started, we told the receptionists everything we’d done/seen in one day and they were astounded! We covered a lot of ground and felt like we saw everything we wanted to in our one wonderful day in The Cotswolds.
Despite their name, I believe Cotswolds Tours and Travel organise tours all over the UK - not just the Cotswolds - and I will definitely book them again next time we want to explore another beautiful part of the UK. Thank you Eddie, Mark, Katie …. And Jeremy Clarkson for putting in an appearance! My daughter will never forget this birthday.
翻译:我们与科茨沃尔德旅游公司 (Cotswolds Tours and Travel) 的体验非常棒,强烈推荐。我女儿想在她17岁生日周末去科茨沃尔德玩玩,由于我们之前从未去过英国的那个地区,所以不知道该住在哪里,也不知道该去哪里才能充分利用我们短暂的假期。我们只知道我们很喜欢看克拉克森农场 (Clarksons Farm) 的节目!埃迪 (Eddie) 推荐了一个克拉克森农场的定制行程,听起来很不错。在我们即将到达的前几天,天气预报显示天气糟糕,下雪可能会导致行程取消。科茨沃尔德旅游公司的凯蒂 (Katie) 及时向我们更新了最新情况,并建议了其他日期、行程时长等方案。她与我们的沟通非常顺畅。最终,雪并没有预报的那么严重,行程也按计划顺利进行。
马克 (Mark) 是我们的导游,他非常棒——无可挑剔。他提前到达,讲解生动有趣,知识渊博,而且很放松——一个好导游该有的样子他都有。他带我们去了百老汇塔、迪德利斯夸特农场(就在杰里米·克拉克森和丽莎出现的时候——马克,你真是太会安排了!)、农夫狗酒吧,以及几个美丽的村庄、啤酒厂和景点。真是精彩绝伦的一天!行程开始8小时后,我们回到百老汇酒店(埃迪推荐的,真是个完美的下榻之处),跟前台说了我们一天之内都去了哪些地方,他们都惊呆了!我们去了好多地方,感觉在科茨沃尔德这美好的一天里,所有想看的都看到了。
虽然他们的名字叫科茨沃尔德旅游公司,但我相信他们组织英国各地的旅游团——不仅仅是科茨沃尔德——下次我们想探索英国其他美丽的地方时,我肯定还会预订他们的服务。谢谢埃迪、马克、凯蒂……还有杰里米·克拉克森的惊喜现身!我女儿永远不会忘记这个生日。
