Fun and informative!

Published on May, 2025

We had a wonderful tour of the Lake District with David. From the moment we set off from the Windermere train station we knew we were in for a fun time. David has a great sense of humor and immediately put us at ease. His knowledge of the history of the areas we visited was so interesting and the historic pictures and maps he showed us truly enhanced the information he was sharing. We were traveling with our 20 year old daughter and he made sure to engage her in conversation as well. The sights were amazing and he gave us plenty of opportunities for picture taking. The tour was a great snapshot of the area including Ambleside, Grasmere, Keswick, the Stone circle and more. It is clear how much David loves the Lake District and is proud to show it off and share its history. We plan to come back in the future to explore more and we will certainly reach out to David when we do return possibly for a hiking tour. Judy, Bill and Lindsay

Great time!

Had a great tour! The driver was very knowledgable and informative. The vehicle was clean and comfortable. Lots of stops to take pics. Never felt rushed.

Fabulous morning out - solo female traveller

Published on May, 2024

I can't recommend this tour highly enough. I'm a solo female traveller and booked the tour with David at short notice. David went out of his way to pick me up from my hotel which Trip Advisor mentioned was out of the pick up zone when I booked. David is a true gentleman and is so knowledgeable about the local area and all the history of this beautiful place. I saw loads of lakes, villages and sights such as the Stone Circle and Grasmere Gingerbread in the 4 hour tour and it wasn't long enough. I've only booked two days in the Lake District and it's nowhere near enough time but David managed to show me so much during the short tour I booked. He was really funny and very easy to talk to and I would absolutely book another tour with him again and recommend him to anyone travelling around here. He even gave me some great recommendations for dinner and I can vouch for his recommendation at Hooked in Windemere - it was delicious and the staff were wonderful. Definitely one of the better tour operators I've ever experienced.
