Tour every Thursday
This tour uses the small size of the touring bus, a small 16 seat bus, to explore the lanes and villages in the Cotswolds that the larger touring buses cannot reach.
Oxford
In a little over an hours from leaving London our journey to the University city of Oxford will be complete.
Heading west over the Chiltern Hills we descend down to the Thames valley to this 'city of dreaming spires' and take a walking tour amongst the cloisters and quadrangles of Britain's oldest University, founded in 1167.
Ivy clad medieval college buildings compete for space with Georgian shops and ancient churches around busy streets which both 'Town and Gown' call home.
The guided walking tour will take you into the heart of this land of hallowed academia, to the Bodleian Library, to the Radcliffe Camera, Sheldonian Theatre and selected colleges.
Oxford University College
Cotswolds
After a break we head out to the nearby Cotswold hills. Here we can find the little back roads taking us away from the busy highways. We meander down country lanes, through villages of honey coloured stone, to Burford and Stow-on-the-Wold and to the charming twins of Upper and Lower Slaughter.

A stop for a leisurely lunch is made in one of these places then we set off to Stratford-on-Avon in Warwickshire.
Stratford Upon Avon
Known the world over as the birthplace of the great poet William Shakespeare we, quite rightly, take you to the house where he was born and to Holy Trinity church where he was both baptised and buried.
Many other centuries-old houses survive, some of these have associations with the writer. After a guided tour of the town and some free time we continue for a photo stop at Anne Hathaway's cottage, a beautiful timber-framed thatched farmhouse that was Shakespeare's wife's childhood home before we finally continue on our journey south to London.
This full day tour every Thursday from Central London between 07:30 & 8.00.
Returns to London before 19:00.

The International Friends Tours Difference
 International Friends Tours are the only mainstream operator of day tours from London operating small group minibuses daily throughout the year.
The maximum number of passengers is 16 and you get a guide offering a much more accessible and personalised experience than the big tours.
Unlike the big buses, International Friends make a point of exploring the country lanes, not the main highways, so you see the real England.
