Great experience with David from Brook Tours of Windermere.

5.00My wife and I are from Australia and organised a private tour with David. We're so pleased we did; we found him to be extremely knowledgeable and had a thoroughly enjoyable day with him. He told us about the history of the different places we visited, took us to some special unexpected sites, and also a couple of sites we specifically asked about. We found him to be an excellent tour guide and can not speak highly enough of the tour and David's coordination of it. He added extra little touches from his own research, such as old photos of some of the sites, so it gave more context and made the history come alive.
Excellent overview of Lake District

5.00David was an excellent guide, extremely knowledgeable about the area and history. He has supplemental photos and information that add depth to the tour information, giving us a very unique picture of the development of the Lake District. It's a full 6 hour itinerary, so have your camera and snacks ready!
A must do tour in the Lake District.

5.00David, our driver and as well as being our tour guide, was excellent at his job. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, funny guy. You can tell he enjoys his job as he does it from his heart. Families as well as small groups will enjoy his company as he knows very well how to communicate with different people. We very much enjoyed this tour. Thank you David for making our Lake District stay a cherished for life.
