Itinerary

Day 1 Travel to the Wye Valley

We’ll meet you at one of our designated UK pick-up points, help you board our accessible coach and ensure you’re comfortable for the journey. All our coaches benefit from hydraulic lift or ramp access, and wheelchairs can be safely secured in place, so there’s no need to transfer to a standard seat. Similarly, all our drivers have experience working with Limitless Travellers and understand and respect individual access needs.

On arrival, the Limitless Team will help you check in. Then, you’ll have time to relax, unwind and explore your accessible room, before enjoying a delicious meal in the hotel restaurant. Your Tour Manager will round out the evening with a little entertainment for those not quite ready to hit the hay.

Day 2 Gloucester Cathedral

Tucked between the Severn and the Cotswolds, Gloucester is rich with Roman and medieval history. Its most famous attraction remains its towering cathedral, which traces its origins back to the 7th century. With its spectacular fan-vaulted cloisters and awe-inspiring stained-glass windows, it remains one of the finest pieces of medieval architecture in the UK.

As well as playing home to the tomb of Edward II, arguably England’s least capable monarch, it was also used as a filming location in the Harry Potter movies, where its stately corridors became Hogwarts’ magical hallways. Following our visit to the cathedral, we’ll enjoy an afternoon in Gloucester city centre – a great opportunity to pick up a few holiday souvenirs!

Day 3 Cotswolds Wildlife Park & Village Tour

Today, we’ll travel to the heart of the picture-perfect Cotswolds to visit the brilliant Wildlife Park & Gardens. Covering 160 acres, the park is home to an astounding array of species. With more than 130 bird species, as well as giraffes, camels, lions, zebras, wolves, rhinos, anacondas and red pandas, the Wildlife Park is the ideal destination for animal lovers.

Later in the afternoon, we’ll enjoy a scenic drive through the Cotswolds and one of its most famous villages, Bourton-on-the-Water. Known as the “Venice of the Cotswolds”, it features an idyllic river, quaint bridges and gorgeous honey-stone architecture. It epitomises the chocolate box villages the Cotswolds is famed for, and is a wonderful finale to a fun-filled day.

Day 4 Abergavenny & Butterfly Centre

Today, we visit the Tropical Butterfly Centre, where you will have the chance to see every stage of the butterfly’s lifecycle, from egg through caterpillars and chrysalises to the animal’s striking final transformation. The Butterfly Centre is a wonderful riot of colour and spectacular patterning, and you’re sure to leave with a new appreciation for these beautiful creatures.

Following the Butterfly Centre, we cross the border into Wales and head for the historic market town of Abergavenny. Perched on the southeastern edge of the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) and overlooked by the beautiful Black Mountains, the town is known as the Gateway to Wales. There, we will enjoy a traditional Welsh cream tea and visit Abergavenny’s vibrant market, where you can pick up souvenirs, check out the stalls and soak up the town’s relaxed atmosphere.

Day 5 Breakfast & Travel Home

Today, your Cotswolds & Beyond tour comes to an end. After breakfast at the hotel, we’ll board the accessible coach and depart for our various UK drop-off locations. Relax, reminisce with your fellow Limitless Travellers and take in the views. We’ll ensure you’re comfortable for the return journey and look forward to seeing you on your next Limitless holiday!
