Klook's Cotswolds one-day tour and Stonehenge are all cooperated with Premium Tours. There are two staff members at the meeting point holding signs to direct the itinerary and instructions. I met the same tour guide Eva and driver Carlos these two days. The driving skills were very good and we saw great countryside scenery. I stayed at Stonehenge for more than an hour, which gave me enough time to see the ruins, but I might not have time to visit the museum next to the visitor center. I stayed in Bath for three to four hours. I didn’t visit the Bath Baths, but I saw the Royal Crescent and the skyline. After shopping around, I hope to have the opportunity to stay in Bath for a few nights.

We were lucky enough to have good weather and took a luxury bus to Stonehenge! The tour guide's detailed and professional explanations made the whole trip full of artistic atmosphere. Very good experience

The tour guide James and the driver Gary were very friendly, the tour guide was able to eloquently explain each attraction, the nearly 45 minutes before waiting outside Windsor Castle to enter, the tour guide was able to keep telling everyone about historical events, close to no cold spots, and The tour guide is quite humorous! And on the tour bus, the tour guide kept explaining the surrounding attractions, even though it was dark outside and may not see the scenery outside clearly, he continued to explain. Although the trip to run three attractions is a bit rushed, but the time arranged is enough, but unfortunately Windsor Castle only about an hour to visit, after seeing the chapel already need to rush to the assembly point, is a bit unfortunate. However, to run three attractions is also expected, the other two attractions more time to wander is also a good option. The Stonehenge shuttle bus was more crowded, so you had to book your waiting time before leaving, and ended up arriving at the meeting point about 3 minutes late, and the tour guide said it didn't matter. Finally returned to the city almost at the same time on the trip, very satisfied with this trip!

I recently went on the Stonehenge and Bath tour in the UK and it was an amazing experience! Our first stop was Stonehenge to see the stones up close. Next, we visited Bath, known for its Roman baths. The Roman Baths were fascinating to explore, and is also a lovely city to walk around, with beautiful sights like Bath Abbey. The tour was well-organized, and our guide Leon and the driver Carlos was friendly and knowledgeable. The bus ride was comfortable, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. I'd recommend this tour as its a perfect mix of history and sightseeing.

The tour is organized and punctual. The review that advised to eat in Windsor area is true as the trip going to Stonehenge is far and there’s no place to eat there. Bath is nice and also has so many restos and shops. The tour guide James is knowledge, kind and patient.

I had an incredible experience on the Stonehenge, Windsor Castle, and Oxford tour! The itinerary was well-organized, allowing us to see three iconic locations in one day. The guide was exceptionally knowledgeable, sharing fascinating historical insights and keeping the group engaged throughout. The transportation was comfortable and punctual, and the timing at each destination was just right. I particularly enjoyed the visit to Windsor Castle, where we had plenty of time to explore the grounds. Stonehenge was breathtaking, and Oxford's charm was the perfect way to end the day. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore England’s rich history and beautiful landmarks in a hassle-free.
