5.00Derek's vast and insightful knowledge of the Lake district kept us interested throughout the day. Never lost his sense of humor in spite of his bruised arm due to a fall earlier in the day. Would recommend this trip to everyone.
Great way to see the Lake District! Highly recommend!

5.00Stef was a fantastic guide. So knowledgeable - he knew lots of quirky details about the area including the most beautiful bus stop! I didn't have a car and this was a great way to see a good portion of the Lake District. Even if I'd have had a car - I would have missed some of the places we went to. Highly recommend!
