We are going to London in September and would like to take one day and go to the Cotswolds/Stratford upon Avon. I almost booked with Golden Tours and then saw a couple of negative comments. Has anyone done a tour here and with what company? We generally travel on our own, but I am a little reluctant to attempt driving a car in Londonn!
Here are links to all of the reviews ever made here of Golden Tours

You can do a train trip to Stratford-Upon-Avon from London. There are companies there that do 1/2 day trips of the Cotswolds. If you take an early train and get to Stratford by 9:30 or 10:00, you could book your tour at the Tourist Information office and then have a couple of hours to wander around Stratford. We did this and really enjoyed it. Unfortuantely, I don't remember which company we used.
