    Our private tour of Whitby and the North York Moors with our guide, Chris, was stellar. Chris made the tour outstanding with his personal knowledge and local expertise of the region and its history. It was my in-laws' first time in England, and Chris made this experience an especially warm English/Yorkshire welcome for them! Chris was kind, friendly, thoughtful, and punctual. He also gave us pointers on places to visit while on our extended trip in Whitby. We saw all the beauty of North Yorkshire and learned a lot in the process. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Yorkshire.

    It is wonderful trip. Even with the inconvenience in traffic from Tour de Yorkshire, we visited all the destinations by the brilliant arrangement of Mark, our tour guide "Mark", who is very caring, attentive, and experienced. We love especially the visit to Hogsmeade station (Goathland station), like going back to Harry Potter's film, and travelling in the train. The Magpie cafe and the Whiteby Abbey are also amazing.
