Description

A private tour in your very own London Black Cab means that we get through the London traffic quickly and smoothly for your day out in midlands of England. Our tour today includes the dramatic backdrop of Warwick castle, Shakespeare's Stratford upon Avon and the Coswolds.

Our day starts at Warwick Castle, home of the Kingmaker whose story you'll see, hear and smell about! Step back into the middle ages to see a bowman in action beneath the battlements of the castle and see the mighty trebuchet in action. Re-visit the Edwardian weekend party to see a young Winston Churchill. The Great Hall holds some fine armaments from hundreds of years ago next to the private apartments of the former owners of the castle. On certain dates you can see some real jousting!

A short drive takes us to Stratford Upon Avon, the home of William Shakespeare. Here we will drive through the town seeing some the sites associated with the Bard including Holy Trinity where he was baptised and buried, the school he attended and the home he was born in.

For lunch we will drive to the Cotswolds and Stow of the Wold, after which we'll see a most curious doorway in the local church before heading off to what is often called the loveliest town in the Cotswolds.
