A Stress Fee Day Filled With Amazing Photos, Great Sightseeing, Good Conversation, and Great Lunch Recommendations

The entire experience was fantastic start to finish! We were staying in an AirBNB and Cuma was gracious enough to come pick us up. We then spent the next six hours going from one Amazing location to the next. He knew all the best spots for pictures, where to grab lunch, or take a stroll. If you're looking for a stress free day filled with amazing photos, great sightseeing, good conversation, and great lunch recommendations I highly recommend this tour!

One of the best parts of my week in England was this Cotswolds tour! The day was absolutely perfect exploring the English countryside. Cuma is a fascinating guide and it was a pleasure spending the day with him. I am thrilled that we were able to visit many small villages to walk the country roads, exploring ancient churches, and beautiful cottages and gardens. Huge bonus is the stunning photos Cuma took of us!

10 out of 5! A Must for Cotswold Visitors

It was an absolute pleasure to be shown the Cotswolds by Cuma! He tailored the experience perfectly for my wife and I. His perspective and insights into local spots made the tour fabulously memorable and surpassed our expectations by a mile.

Our experience was with Cuma excellent and quite memorable. He is very friendly and covered almost all the treasures of Cotswold. His excellent photography skill was an added advantage in tour. Would recommend everyone to contact Cuma for Cotswold and other places. Thanks

We truly enjoyed our private tour of the Cotswolds with Cuma! It was truly a perfect experience and exceeded all my expectations and now I have absolutely gorgeous photos as a keepsake! Cuma was very personable with great attention to detail and was also very knowledgeable of the Cotswolds region. I truly appreciated the locals perspective during the tour and this personalized experience far surpassed any exploring I could have done on my own or with a large group. You will be very pleased with this tour and will love all the photos you will have to remember. You will not be disappointed! I know when I revisit the English countryside I will be contacting Cuma. ☺️

Cuma, the best guide ever!

Cuma, our guide, was just wonderful! He picked us up from our location, personalized our trip for the 4 of us, took photos of our group and was so accommodating and informative. Can’t say enough good things about him! You won’t be disappointed! Kathy

Hidden Gems is indeed a gem

Cuba was a seasoned, thoughtful, and flexible guide! He was able to alter the tour to accommodate our pickup point and interest in experiencing Hidcote, as well as anticipate needs for brief breaks, and a relaxed inn luncheon. We had a wonderful time. No improvements needed!

Above and Beyond!

This was the most excellent tour I could have chosen for myself and my family! We took a private tour with Cuma Cevik because we wanted to be comfortable with our 4 year old needing to possibly do frequent stops. Cuma arrived on time for pick up. He was friendly, down to earth and very informative. He gave us details about the towns of Cotswolds and their interesting history. He is a very safe and professional driver. Had a clean car and made us feel very comfortable. Even had water for us which was so thoughtful and kind. He made us feel like he was a friend whom we've known for a long time. Even when my daughter had an outburst, he was so understanding. He made sure to create the tour around our interests and ensured we were satisfied at each stop. He also took quite a few lovely family photos for us with his professional camera! What a treat! Check out his Instagram photography and you'll understand why this was so special for us. He is a talented man and a really amazing tour guide. You will absolutely love your time with him and I recommend him to anyone who wants to learn about Cotswolds while feeling at ease enjoying a private tour. Thank you again Cuma!!

We got to experience 8 different villages and Cuma pointed out the uniqueness of each. Towers, thatched roofs, churches, and sheep in pastoral settings were all highlights. Having free time for lunch and some shopping enabled us to experience the culture in a special way. It was a great time and my wife and I would totally recommend the tour.

Great first tour of the Cotswolds

Great first tour of the Cotswolds! Cuma was super knowledgeable, friendly and professional. We had 6 hours exploring several towns in the northern part of the Cotswolds. Cuma also is a photographer and took some great pictures of our family! It was a nice extra perk of the tour!

Awesome Tour

Our group of four ladies loved our tour of the Cotswolds! Cuma was a charming and gracious tour guide. We were not sure exactly what we wanted to see so Cuma provided us with a great tour of numerous highlighted locations. Highly recommended!

An unforgettable, amazing day with Cuma!

We had an amazing day with Cuma as he toured us through the Cotswolds on our 20th Anniversary. He took us to villages we wanted to see - Stow-on-the-Wold and Lower Slaughter and was quick to point out areas of interest such as churches and photogenic spots. When we mentioned we would prefer less touristy villages, he shifted the itinerary to focus on those, still showing us amazing sights and taking photos that will be precious to us in the future. We can’t recommend Cuma strongly enough - he made our anniversary so special!

We booked Cuma's services for two days with our family of 8 people to show us around the Cotswolds, Bath, Oxford, and Windsor. He is a lovely gentleman, courteous, kind, patient and knowledgeable. His communication over email planning the trip was great and he was on time, had a good vehicle for us, and navigated us throughout the region very well. We are so happy with our two days with Cuma and highly recommend his services.

Absolutely perfect experience!

Cuma was prompt, courteous, and kind. We made a special request to see an additional village, and he took us there with no problem. He gave us space to linger where we wanted, and he was most informative about what we were seeing. We ran a bit over due to our request, and he was gracious. He created the perfect relaxed atmosphere and itinerary to showcase the Cotswolds. He gave excellent lunch advice as well. We also just received the photos he took of our family throughout the day (he is a professional photographer), and we were thrilled with them. This experience exceeded our expectations, and we would be delighted for Cuma to guide us again! He was an excellent communicator throughout the process. Thank you, Cuma, for such wonderful memories!

Cuma did a great job with our tour

Cuma did a great job with our tour! He has a nice comfortable car and drove some lovely routes through the Cottswolds. He shared lots of interesting information! We toured the Snowshill Manor and gardens. So many unique items. We had a lovely lunch and saw a beautiful area with him! Thank you for a wonderful day!

Cuma was extremely kind, cordial and patient

Cuma was extremely kind, patient, and understanding when my family had a difficult situation arise when we were in London recently. Initially, we needed to postpone our tour to the Cotswolds due to a combination of issues, including daughter having knee problem. Cuma was very cordial and calm and helped us select another day.
Then, the afternoon before we were to meet, her knee tendon ruptured and we had to cancel completely. Not only was Cuma extremely nice about it, he actually helped me navigate a refund. He made a stressful day much better! Only wish we could have all spent the day together in the Cotswolds. Hopefully next time :)
