Enjoy a full-day coach tour to three of England's most-popular locations - Oxford, Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick Castle - along with a drive through the beautiful countryside of the Cotswolds.
Photo: viator.comYour early morning start will begin by boarding a comfortable air-conditioned coach at Victoria Coach Station, before heading out of central London toward Warwick Castle.
The medieval Warwick Castle
Photo: getyourguide.co.ukYou'll be given 1½ hours to explore the medieval fortress and its magnificent ramparts, including the staircase up to the Princess Tower, the lavishly decorated State Rooms, the 17th-century Great Hall, and the original 14th-century dungeons still etched with prisoners' graffiti.
Photo: getyourguide.co.ukThis beautiful castle was originally built by William the Conqueror and once belonged to the most powerful man in England - the Earl of Warwick. It has over 1,000 years of history attached to it, including a room full of gleaming suits of silver armour.
Photo: getyourguide.co.ukYou'll also have time to admire the pretty peacocks in the gardens, and maybe see some archery, falconry and jousting (events only take place during the summer).
Shakespeare's Stratford-upon-Avon
Photo: viator.comAfter re-boarding the coach you'll head to the birthplace of the England's greatest playwright - William Shakespeare - where you'll be given another 1½ hours to explore the cobbled streets and squares of Stratford-upon-Avon.
You might like to visit the half-timbered house where Shakespeare was born in 1564, which is amazingly still standing, or have a spot of lunch in one of the market town's quant cafes.

You'll then enjoy a drive past the pretty pastures and rolling green hills of the Cotswolds, soaking up the gorgeous views of the English countryside.
The Cotswolds have been designated an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty' thanks to its sleepy villages, thatched cottages and stone-built spires of ancient churches.
Oxford - The 'City of Dreaming Spires'

Upon arrival in Oxford you'll be given an audio guide and another 1½ hours to walk around the cobbled streets and squares of the university city, past architectural gems like the Bodleian Library, Bridge of Sighs, Radcliffe Camera and Christopher Wren's Sheldonian Theatre.
Other highlights include Trinity College and Christ Church College - founded by Henry VIII in 1532 and featured recently in the Harry Potter movies.
