Black Sheep Travel Reviews 26

We had a wonderful day touring several northern Cotswold villages with Cuma! He was punctual, kind, and thoughtful, and he shared great information about the area. Riding all around in his beautiful car was so enjoyable, because we could completely concentrate on the beautiful scenery. Our stops in each village included walks, brief shopping, and fun conversation, and we even had time for a snack in the morning and lunch. Blessed with beautiful sunshine and frosty temperatures, we saw the area at its wintry best! Cuma also took professional photos of us along the way, which he’ll send to us as part of the day’s package. It was a memorable experience and we highly recommend Cuma’s tour!

l asked Cuma to plan a 3-day tour of the countryside for me and my mom. He pulled everything together so quickly, tailored it to what we wanted, and found really special places for us to stay and visit. The first morning he picked us up at Gatwick and drove us to Oxford where we had lunch, explored the university (including Harry Potter locations) and visited a market. We never would have been able to see Oxford as efficiently as we could with him. He knew where to go to see beautiful and interesting things while avoiding the crowds.

Actually, he did that every place we visited.

The following day we toured Blenheim Palace and a couple of smaller villages in the Cotswolds. On the final day we visited another village (saw a beautiful open air Sunday service) and finished the tour with Sunday roast at a pub in Bath and a walk through the city.

Cuma made everything so easy for us. He arranged all the transportation, inns, meals (the organic farm was amazing), and activities. He was flexible and adjusted the schedule when we wanted to spend more time exploring something. He is an extraordinarily talented photographer and took beautiful pictures of me and my mom. I have several I'll treasure forever.

But most of all, he was wonderful company. He is an engaging and charming person, kind, patient, and enthusiastic. From the beginning of the trip, I felt like we were traveling with a friend. By the end of the trip, we were.

Cuma was great-very accommodating and flexible, friendly and easy to talk to. Great value for the transportation, photography knowledge and pics documenting your visit to the Cotswolds. Highly recommend. 🙂

Cuma is such a lovely person and from the beginning was so kind towards us. Cuma showed us so many of the most iconic villages in north Cotswolds - - covering so many locations that would have taken us several days to figure out on our own. Even then, we never felt rushed at all, as he let us linger as long as we'd like. It is a great tour itself, but to have his expert photography skills on top of it -- AMAZING!

We are so grateful that he shared his time, knowledge, and expertise with us and we will cherish these images forever.
Seriously...book his tour ASAP!

I joined his photography tours in Iceland and Faroe Islands in July 2022 and it was a trip of a lifetime! :)

Cuma was very helpful from the planning stage of my trip to the end of the workshop. He has a genuine personality with a passion of quality photography, so he makes everyone satisfied with their photos and settings at various locations and weather conditions. This was all I needed since I’m an amateur photographer. :) I really upped my skill level with his constant patience. At the end of the tour, he even showed us how to edit photos in photoshop.

He knows all hidden gems I would have never seen if I tried to visit on my own, hope to join his other workshops next year. I came back home with amazing photos, you’ll never regret joining any of Cuma’s trips :)

This was so fun and honestly one of my favourite things I did on my trip! Cuma is an incredible photographer and made me feel extremely comfortable in front of the camera. He was very good at helping to direct me and telling me how to pose which I really liked. The locations we went to were perfect photo spots, and I am thrilled already with the unedited versions (Getting the edited ones soon). Cuma is passionate about photography, and it shows in all his work. I highly recommend him.
