Journey to Oxford
We depart central London early in the morning. The city's grand buildings fade into open green spaces as you travel towards the city of Oxford, your first stop of the day.
Free time in Oxford
Oxford with its spire-studded skyline of the English-speaking world's oldest University, is your first highlight. Enjoy free time to explore at your own pace - wander through the historic college precincts, climb one of the city’s vantage points for sweeping views, or discover art and antiquities in the Ashmolean Museum. Feel the magic as you wander around the city, where spires rocket towards the sky and elegant halls straight out of Harry Potter stir your imagination.
Castle Combe & free afternoon in Bath
Next, your journey takes you into the Cotswolds, a region known for its charming cottages, tranquil gardens, and green hills. You stop in the village of Castle Combe - often called one of the prettiest in England, with its romantic stone bridge and honey‑coloured cottages. As you wander its cobbled lanes, you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped into a storybook or a movie.
Your day becomes even more enchanting as you travel to Bath, a UNESCO World Heritage city rich in Roman history and graceful Georgian architecture. This afternoon and evening are yours to enjoy at your own pace - take in Bath’s iconic architecture, explore its atmospheric lanes, or relax and soak up the city’s timeless elegance.
Free evening in Bath
In the evening, Bath comes alive with charm and atmosphere. You have free time to decide what to do.
