Undiscovered Cotswolds

Combining the best tourist highlights with hidden villages in the Cotswolds that only the locals really get to see.
Undiscovered Cotswolds is run by us two locals - Graham and Ian. We offer small guided tours for up to 8 people in order to maximise comfort and the overall experience. We also like to focus on getting off the beaten track, to see how it really is to live in this stunning region. Take in small hamlets, streams and meadows that can inspire you for many years to come.
We also run private tours which are fully tailored to you. These can also include transfers from most places in the region including Oxford and London. A Cotswold tour makes a fantastic day trip from these areas.
Some of the places we visit are known for inspiring famous authors and film directors. If you wish you could visit some of the sights in Downton Abbey or see how Tolkien found his inspiration in the Lord of the Rings.
During the summer we operate cycle tours and can combine the Cotswolds with some traditional Oxford punting down the river. This is a wonderful combination!
As the weather cools off we open up our Cotswolds and Christmas at Blenheim Palace tour. This is a wonderful combination of exploring this stunning area and then (as the sun goes down) take a stroll around the magnificent Blenheim light trail!
So whether it is afternoon cream tea in a traditional tea room, punting down the river, cycling, horse riding or you just want to get a wonderful overview of the area and take some stunning pictures, then join us.
Come visit our website and see which one of our tours is for you!
