Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We had a wonderful day with our tour guide Simon. He was full of knowledge about Stonehenge and the area around Bath. Highly Recommend!

Jules, Thank you for your assistance in making transfer tour arrangements for LHR to the Cotswolds, the Cotswolds to Bath, and Bath to Lacock/Swindon. Everything went perfectly! Jules II found us immediately at LHR, drove us to Greys Court for a visit, and stopped at Ebrington Arms where we had a lovely lunch before our Cotswolds drop off. Simon picked us up for our Cotswolds to Bath component and made modifications as necessary based on our previous experiences. He also coordinated our Bath walking tour and Bath to London area transfer. We really enjoyed our time with Simon and look forward to return. Sightseeing in the rain was balanced by...yes, more fabulous pub stops! Our family of four, including my husbands parents in their 80s, was so very well organized and thoroughly enjoyable! Thank you to all for great experiences in the region.

Let's see Castle Combe, Malmesbury, Corsham and Bradford on Avon, and away we went! It was a splendid day of touring beautiful historical places (with emphasis on the dark ages, which I was truly in the dark about before my guide elucidated me), stopping for coffee, tea and lunch in cozy pubs, being driven around through breathtaking country and spending time with a knowledgeable and delightful guide. I found myself wishing Simon were along for the entirety of my trip. The day tour was certainly time and money well spent. I would highly recommend In and Beyond Bath for sightseeing around the south Cotswolds. Jules went out of his way to accommodate my tour off-season. Many heartfelt thanks for that!

A delightful day with a delightful, engaged visitor. Honoured to spend some of your holiday showing you around just some of the area's hidden gems, Rebecca. Safe travels.Simon

We arranged for a transfer tour between Bath and Swindon (convenient rail into London). Our interests are history, architecture and because it was fall, seeing some fall colors. Jules crafted a great itinerary and we enjoyed every bit of it. Jules is knowledgeable, personable and an excellent driver. We went to Avebury and enjoyed a delicious lunch before heading to Severnake Forest. We tromped all through the forest and had a great time. I highly recommend In and Beyond Bath. It was absolutely worth it.

We had an excellent bespoke experience with our guide Roland on our tour through the Cotswolds. We were delivered the promised off the beaten track tour and really appreciated how Roland highlighted interesting points and then listened and narrowed the focus to what we seemed interested in. I was not sure if I should spend the money when there were other tours available but it was very well worth the price!

Roland took us to Wells, Lyme Regis, Salisbury and Avebury and nearby areas. He was a great tour guide and showed us many interesting places. We really enjoyed our tour.

Thank you, Max, for a wonderfully relaxed yet action-packed day exploring the cutesy villages of the Cotswolds and the medieval market town of Malmesbury. You immediately put us at ease with your convivial manner and the friendly sparkle in your eye.
It was an extremely well-paced and well-curated tour. You shone the spotlight on some fabulously quirky local characters as well as revealing hidden secrets about important figures in British history, bringing all these stories to life effortlessly. I also loved the traditional pub lunch (fantastic food).
Conversation flowed, friendships were formed and we lapped up your wealth of knowledge on the rich heritage of this region.
An absolute delight!

Great experience with Julie from In & Around Bath. She picked my husband and I up at our hotel at 9 AM, and described the beautiful scenery on the 1 hr drive to Stonehenge. She provided details about Stonehenge that we wouldn't otherwise had known and gave us plenty of time to explore the stones and visitors center. From there we drove through the countryside to the village of Horningsham in Wiltshire where we lunched at fancy local pub/restaurant on the extensive grounds of Longleat House. Next stop was Frome in Somerset where we toured St. Johns Church founded in 685 AD and Nunny Castle (dtd 1370), and then stopped at the local pub for the local cider. Delicious!
We found In & Beyond Bath on the VisitBath website. There are a few other all-day driving tours available (some at lower prices but they were already booked). But, we have no regrets and completely enjoyed our day touring the area with Julie!

Great experience just touching the surface of the Cotswolds. Our guide, Roland, was so knowledgeable. My teenager was entertained the whole time and we both learned so much. Plus, the scenery was gorgeous.
