5.00We had our trip with Frank and to be honest couldn't ask for a better tour guide! He kept the tour engaging with stories about the lake district and famous people from the past who belonged to the area. He made sure we don't get bored even when we were on the bus by playing stories and poetries. He is a fantastic driver and had very good geographical knowledge about the area. We would surely be looking forward to have more trips with him in the near future. Thank You Frank! Best, Puneet and Aish
If you’re in Liverpool it...

4.00A very nice day trip into nature with small mountains and the largest lake in England. Due to lightning ice we were not able to finish the tour as planned, but Busy Bus brought us safely back to Liverpool. Thank you!
My trip was to the lake...

3.00My trip was to the lake district. The driver Shelly was amazing and if I could rate her alone, I would give a higher score. Really knew her stuff, clearly loves what she does, super funny and charming. For starters we didn't start promptly as advertised. The trip itself left me wanting to be honest. The bus really should offer wifi and the company in my opinion should offer at least water or something like that for the price it is, given that it includes absolutely nothing, including the boat ticket. The boat trip was incredibly meh. The view you get, you can get it by walking around, there was nothing special to it. Just felt like a waste of time and money. The villages Ambleside and Grasmere are cute, quaint and small, but again didn't think they were that exciting to see. The best bit for me was Blea Tarn, the mountains. Omg! Breathtaking, surreal, incredibly beautiful. Not sure we actually stayed 45 minutes, didn't feel like that, honestly more time should be spent there. I wouldn't recommend going in the winter as it gets dark earlier and its tricky to do sightseeing that way,plus the weather can be really awful.
All do it was raining all day Lee tried to give us the most of this excursion as possible.
