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.

Beautiful and interesting tour. I loved all the beautiful towns we saw and especially the stones. Guide lent me his umbrella while he got soaked; above and beyond the call. 😊

Our guide Andy was fantastic! So genial and knowledgeable. We weren’t sure if we’d enjoy this type of tour, but we didn’t feel rushed at all and would definitely go again.
Loved that we got to Stonehenge right when it opened so we missed the crowds. Andy also told us how to hop the buses to get to the site if we didn’t want to do a hike. Avebury, Lacock and Castle Combe were just wonderful to ramble around.
Props to Maddie and Andy, we loved our tour!

We had an outstanding experience. The tour was well-organized and our guide Gerry was fantastic, very knowledgable about the history, and very warm and funny as well. We got closer to the Stonehenge temple than expected and we were able to walk among the stones of Avebury. It was an excellent tour including the drama of prehistoric monuments, the charm of two Cotswald villages, and the beauty of the rolling green countryside but Gerry made it especially memorable for us. We had such a great rapport--and were surprised and excited to run into him by chance two days later when we were on our own in another village and he was leading another tour. It was great to reconnect for a few moments. We would definitely recommend this tour to others and would consider Mad Max tours in the future.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review and for making Gerry's day - your card is still in pride of place on his fridge! We've worked hard to get the right balance between prehistoric monuments and stunning historical villages and I think you've summed that up beautifully! Wishing you all the Best Maddy

We had an amazing time! Richard was charming, funny, and full of knowledge. Don’t be discouraged by a 9-hour day; everything was timed out perfectly! We were so enthralled by everything we saw that the wonder made the time fly! We’d also recommend grabbing a quick lunch option in Lacock so you don’t miss the walking tour— sometimes the restaurants/pubs can be busy.

We spent the day with Gerry on the full day tour to Stonehenge, Avebury, Cotswold Villages and we had an awesome experience. Seeing Stonehenge was breathtaking and traveling around in the Cotswolds was amazing. Gerry was a great tour director and added in his commentary to give us a more in-depth understanding of the rich heritage of the area. We also loved the stop off for lunch in Lacock National Trust Village. It was definitely a quaint village from centuries past.

Thank you for taking the time to review your day with Mad Max with Gerry as your guide. Tour 1 is our most diverse and comprehensive tour and it sounds like Gerry really helped the area and history come to life. We are lucky to have a local team who love to pass on their knowledge. They love the area and who wouldn't with such ancient and beautiful places to see. Hopefully you might join us again sometime.

The Stonehenge Mad Max tour was an extremely interesting and enjoyable experience. Gerry, the tour operator and guide was a delight! Very welcoming, informative, funny and courteous - nothing was too much trouble. Seeing Stonehenge from a distance was amazing but up close it was breathtaking! The Avebury stones were very interesting - you can walk up and touch them and follow the huge circle of stones. The Cotswalds are just beautiful - a step back into another time. I highly recomend this tour - a lovely day out with everything taken care of for you.

Thank you for the lovely review. Gerry will be delighted that you had a great day with him. its good to visit Avebury after Stonehenge so you can really see the stones up close. We are so lucky to have such picturesque villages close to Bath and are pleased you loved them as much as we do.

We did the Stonehenge, Avebury, Lacock village tour with Mad Max. We had Tim for our guide. He kept us informed throughout the tour about the places we'd visit and kept our interest. He is extremely knowledgeable and could talk on a variety of subjects when questioned by us! I have to commend him on his driving skills - he so skillfully navigated the narrow road we had to take due to road closure! Wow! And of course Maddie's commentaries added to the whole experience.
I have done two tours with Mad Max on two consecutive days and have enjoyed them both thoroughly. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family!

Thank you so much for highlighting one of our wonderful guides, who do take care of the driving through narrow country lanes as well as sharing their broad knowledge with you. It's great to hear that you enjoyed the audio commentaries in the bus and that you enjoyed both of our tours. Thank you so much for sharing.
