Windermere Lake Cruise will be included in your tour price.

The Lake District is where people go to rejuvenate their senses.

The soaring mountains refresh your mind, the lakes calm your worries, and the quaint houses and little lanes make you yearn for a long-forgotten age.

So on this tour, we take you on a day trip through the best locations of England’s most famous National Park.

You learn the tales from Windermere, the largest lake in England and you admire Wordworth’s cosy Dove Cottage.

Join this tour, enjoy the scenery, and let nature help you unwind.

    Our trip to the Lake District was absolutely spectacular — our tour guide Darren was so friendly and knowledgeable and had great recommendations for each of our stops. Everyone on board was delightful, and despite taking the trip solo, I ended up making a friend on the bus as well and we spent the evening hanging out at Manchester's pubs when we got back. If you're a solo traveler looking for a safe and easy way to explore a beautiful new place and maybe meet a new friend, I highly recommend this!
