Cornwall and the Cotswolds Tour

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Cornwall and the Cotswolds. The right balance between seeing lots of places and spending time in them. The accomodations were great and the small group worked well. A shoutout to our driver / guide / history buff Len who embellished the journey with facts , history and suggestions. Attending Evensong in Exeter Cathedral was something we would not have considered but it was great. Also Len took us on the backroads through scenic countryside, laneways and villages. The guided walking tour of Port Issac was also a highlight.
Thanks again Mark and Julie from Australia

Hi Mark and Julie, I’m glad the balance of the five days felt just right and that Len’s history and local suggestions added so much to the journey. Evensong at Exeter Cathedral is a great special discovery and I’m pleased Port Isaac was another highlight. Thanks for joining us. Best, Maya

High recommendation, book today!

This trip was excellent. Cannot praise the driver/guide highly enough, thank you Len, you are a wonderful person and a most excellent safe driver. We travelled all the backroads, saw so much more than we could ever have seen in a hire car, without all the hassles. Hotels were excellent, far exceeded expectations. Bus was comfortable. Highly recommend. Company also easy to deal with, responsive.

It’s great to hear that the whole experience exceeded your expectations, from the hotels to exploring those smaller back roads. I’m especially glad you felt in such safe hands with Len and got to see parts of the countryside you might otherwise have missed. Thanks for the recommendation. Best, Maya

Cornwall and the Cotswold tour with Christian

Thanks Go Tours for providing such an extensive introduction to Devon, Cornwall and the Cotswolds. Our guide Christian was outstanding. His knowledge of the area and his playlists for each region added so much to the experience and certainly couldn’t be replicated driving yourself. Christian went above and beyond by providing opportunities to visit off the beaten track sites that enriched the experience immeasurably. Our tour group were a pleasure to travel with and it was sad to leave the group at the end. Once again, thanks Go Tours for an exceptional tour.

Hi Geraldine. Thanks so much for the lovely words, it means a lot to the whole team. Hope to see you again soon. James.

Fantastic 5-day small-group tour to Cornwall

Fantastic 5-day trip to Cornwall with GoTours.
Everything was perfectly organised and I felt the amount of time we had at the various sightseeing stops was exactly right.
That concept of being driven from stop to stop and then being able to explore the places at one‘s own pace without constant guidance suited me perfectly.

Our tour guide/driver Len was a real gem: always friendly, calm and accommodating, funny, knowledgeable (always gave a small introduction/explanation before we reached a new place) and a very safe and considerate driver.
The latter being quite important as those narrow country lanes in Cornwall are very tricky to navigate and squeeze through :-)

Accommodationwise I particularly loved the B&B in Falmouth - The Camelot offered so much more than I expected from a small guesthouse. And Falmouth as such is a gorgeous little town with a lovely high street, a beach and good restaurant options all within easywalking distance - perfect for those two overnight stops.

I really enjoyed my first multi-day bus tour and am already contemplating booking the Lake District one for next year :-)

Thanks to everyone at GoTours.

Many highlights on this tour of Cornwall, Bath and the Cotswolds

Very good multiple day tour of Cornwall, with a final day focused on Bath and one community in the Cotswolds. Our tour guide, David, was very knowledgeable of the areas that we visited throughout the tour, and also very entertaining.
There were many highlights during the tour, with favourites being Stonehenge, Minack Theatre, Titagel, and especially the wonderful tour of Port Isaac (Doc Martin)
This was the second Go Tours UK tour that we took during our travels in England (after the Lake District and York Tour). Whenever we're back in the UK, we will consider taking the 5 day Go Tours UK tour of Wales.

Thank you so much for this. It is brilliant to hear you enjoyed the Cornwall tour and that David made the trip. Port Isaac is always a highlight and Minack is hard to beat. We are also really pleased this was your second tour with us and we hope the Wales tour makes it onto the list next time you are back in the UK. We would love to have you along. James

Cornwall in a Small Group Tour

This was my first Go To Tour. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The small group tour was such a positive adventure because the size is easily manageable, sharing the sites in a casual, informative manner.

Thank you so much for this. We are really pleased your first tour with us was such a positive experience and that the small group format worked so well for you. It really does make all the difference. We hope to welcome you back on another tour soon. Cheers, James

You won't reget it!

I loved the open format of this tour; once you arrive at a site, you're allowed to wander where you like, see what interest you.
You get to see most of the major tourist sites, and a few lesser know ones. Excellent accommodations on the trip.

A big shout out to our guide, Robert. He even made a slight detour so I could see the village where my great-granddad was born!

Really, the best experience! Thank you!

Robert making that detour to your great-granddad's village is absolutely lovely. Those personal moments are what make tours special, not just the major sites. Really pleased the open format suited you - wandering at your own pace and following what interests you is such a different experience to being herded around as a group. Thanks so much for the kind words!
Cheers, James

Go Tours - 5 day Cornwall and Cotswold

It was an amazing 5 day tour which took us in the heart of Cornwall with some mesmerising views and lovely memories. Our guide, Len, was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable and at the same time very professional. Clear communication prior to the trip with no cancellations. Good work by Go Tours. Good hotels provided during the tour.

Cornwall over five days with Len sounds absolutely brilliant! Mesmerising views and lovely memories is exactly what we're after. Really pleased the communication before the trip was clear and the hotels worked out well too. Thanks so much for trusting us with your Cornwall adventure!
Cheers, James

Excellent quality travel experience to Cornwall with Go Tours

I thoroughly enjoyed the Go Tour of Cornwall. Len was an amazing guide, very knowledgeable and full of facts. The quality of places that we visited were excellent. The trip was planned just right. We saw so many places (that I've always wanted to see) and some that I didn't know about. The accommodation offered was perfect and within walking access to nearby services and facilities. I would recommend Go Tours and Len to anyone considering touring Cornwall. I plan on attending another tour of another region with Go Tours. Hopefully with Len.

Cornwall with Len sounds like it ticked every box! Those places you didn't know about are often the best discoveries, and it's brilliant that the accommodation worked out so well too. The fact that you're already planning another tour with us (and hoping for Len again) is the best compliment we could ask for. Thanks so much for this lovely review!
Best, James

A Dream Tour!

This was hands-down one of the best tours I've ever taken! I've longed to explore Cornwall for years, and GoTours UK was absolutely THE choice for the trip - a dream!

Len, our bus driver & guide, was genial, patient, knowledgeable, and went out of his way to give us extra photo ops - besides being an excellent driver! The small bus gave us access through the countryside not possible with a large vehicle. Our multi-national group was upbeat, curious and fun. Plus we were blessed with sunny days!

I felt the time allowed at each of the many locations was just about right, with the exception of Stonehenge. My suggestion for Stonehenge would be to include it in the pre-tour ticket purchases. We stood on line a solid half hour to purchase tickets, which greatly shortened the overall visit to such a vital historical site.

I loved this Cornwall, Dorset, Devon, Cotswold tour with Go Tours UK, and highly recommend it! It was truly a dream - I never imagined it would be this wonderful!

Dear Doris,
Sunny Cornwall with Len...sounds like a dream tour! On Stonehenge, we can't wrap the tickets into the tour price unfortunately, but we've taken your feedback on board and we're looking to get a smarter system in place for getting them sorted in advance.
Best, James

Wonderful tour!

The tour was lovely and me and my family really enjoyed it! Our tour guide David was amazing, super well organised and always made sure we had everything we need. He also knew a lot of stuff about the sites we visited which was great and he was really funny. I would have loved to have a bit more time at some of the sites (especially the wonderful beaches!) but that obviously would mean you'll get to see fewer places. The accommodations were great too (we chose the B&B option) and well located which made it easy to roam around on our own in the evenings. All in all it was a great tour!

A great introduction to the region

The tour was excellent. It involved a lot of driving but the itinerary was very clear about times, distances and stops so I was prepared for that. We got to see a lot of Devon and Cornwall in a limited time, and the fact that we were in a (very comfortable) minibus rather than a car didn't hamper us. We travelled on coastal and country roads wherever possible, and Len, our guide and driver, did a great job of setting expectations about the places we were going to see. Len was a highlight - he was unfailingly kind and cheerful, and his commentary was lively and informative.

Fun trip exploring Devon, Cornwall & Cotswolds

I visited Devon and Cornwall with Go Tours in October 2025. From the beginning of the tour in London our driver and guide Dave was entertaining and informative as well a very safe driver. I was on the last tour for the year and weather was quite changeable but did not hamper the trip. Dave managed to work around the weather we saw everything that was promised with a few extras thrown in Dave went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Go Tours

Excellent tour and guide without peer

I loved the itinerary and our guide Christian was exceptional. His knowledge is impressive and he is a thorough gentleman. I felt he took great care of each and every one of us. He definitely went above and beyond.
The tour company were brilliant to deal with and kept me well informed from my first inquiry till I left on the tour & Christian took over.
The tour was great value for money and I am so grateful for the genuine care and concern for our comfort, safety and enjoyment.
The mini bus was new and extremely comfortable. It was cleaned daily.
My only advice is to avoid staying at Holiday Inn before and/or after the tour! The hotels on tour were very good.
It was a wonderful experience, many thanks to Go Tours and our amazing driver/guide, Christian.

Awesome five days made even better by the awesome driver/guide Jamie!

This was an amazing trip! I went with my wife along with my two grown sons and their significant others. We all loved it. I have to say that our guide and drive, Jamie, really played a big role in the experience. He was friendly, informative, funny, relatable...and a really amazing driver. Navigating those narrow country roads would be impossible for me, but he was an expert. I was struck by how quickly he got to know all of us personally. And it was more than just learning our names. He learned specifics about each one of us and adapted the schedule based on knowing what people's particular interests were. For example, the visit to the Tintagel castle was top-of-the-list for one of my sons, and Jamie made sure we had plenty of time there to soak it all in. He even worked in songs on his driving playlist based on things he learned about people. A truly superior guide and driver in every way. Jamie's natural ability to connect with us helped us all connect with each other, too. In a short time, it felt like we were all a big family. So hats off to Jamie, for sure. And the actual experience was wonderful. We saw so much in those five days. Stonehenge, the Salisbury Cathedral, the moors, the port towns, Tintagel... And then Jamie treated us to some "bonus" locations along the way, some of which ended up being our favorites. No way to really list the highlights since it all seemed like one big highlight. This was the first of this kind of tour for my family, and we all were very pleased. I had read many positive reviews of Go-tours experiences, and I am happy to add this positive review to the mix. I will certainly be recommending Go-tours to others. If there was a way to know who was scheduled as the driver/guide, I'd certainly be looking to sign up for another week with Jamie.

Great 5 Days

This tour is a must do, if you ever find yourself wanting to see Cornwall. Our group of 16 intrepid travelers was lucky to have David as our driver/tour guide. We stopped on our way at Stonehenge and Salisbury Cathedral. Saw the beautiful Dartmoor National Park, the Minack Theater, Port Isaac and so much more. An affordable way to see a new place, meet wonderful people and not have to worry about learning how to drive a different way...just sit back and enjoy the view from your seat!
