Self-guided tours through Cirencester pack a lot of history into wallet-friendly adventures.
The standout choice is the Hidden History Tour ($16.40 for up to 6 people), which smartly connects the town’s Roman ruins with its medieval treasures. I love how it lets families and small groups explore at their own pace while keeping costs down.
The Quirky Smartphone Heritage Walks earn my thumbs-up for combining modern tech with ancient stories – perfect for tech-savvy travelers who want flexibility.
The Stonehenge, Bath & Stratford route is especially well-designed, hitting all the must-see spots.
For those wanting a deeper look at local life, the private Cotswolds Village Car Tour stands out.
And craft enthusiasts shouldn’t miss the hands-on terrarium workshop – it’s a creative break from traditional sightseeing.
