Cotswolds & Shakespeare Birthplace: Private Day Tour from London

You step into a cool leather seat as the city thins and lanes of honey-colored stone begin to unspool outside the window. The chauffeur eases the executive vehicle onto country lanes where low dry-stone walls and clipped hedgerows frame fields of sheep; the Cotswold hills roll like a green paragraph between villages. This is a day designed to move at a humane pace—part moving picture, part living museum—each stop a short walk from the van into a precise corner of English history.
