5.00Wonderful English countryside and quintessential Derbyshire villages of the Peak District. We even discovered some off-tourist trap, walking tracks to escape the inevitable bustle. Our guide, Darren was knowledgeable and delivered his commentary with enthusiasm, warmth and humour. A brilliant experience well worth our time and money!
Beautiful scenery

5.00Pete did a great job in explaining the history around the area. We stopped at Eyam, Bakewell and Castleton and there were plenty of times to explore.

1.00The directions from Piccadilly station are very very confusing causing us to miss the tour. I also got very sick while trying to find it. We asked three people and they all interpreted your directions differently there are no street signs
We cancelled but still a classy operation

5.00Unfortunately my husband got sick the night before we were supposed to go and we had to cancel. It was not within the 24 hour mark so there was no refund but we knew this when we canceled. The cancelation process was easy. I did it right online. I still am reviewing with a 5 star because our tour guide did reach out to us right away and checked on us. I thought that was above and beyond.
