This was a fabulous tour. Barry was a great guide. He had entertaining stories and an unbelievable knowledge of history. If possible, sit near the front of the bus to get a better view.

Had a great visit to the Dales with Ben A! It included a stop off for pictures outside the house they use as Helen’s Dad’s place in the new series and they happened to be filming that day. That was an unexpected and delightful treat! Bolton Castle was also lovely - much more to see than I expected. An all-around good time.

Positive: great views, informative guide, interesting places, Wensleydale Creamery has a great tasting room and a reasonable cafe with good selection. Negative: Mountain Goats just bought new vans and the windows are reflective which makes it hard to see much less take pictures through them. Told the guide/driver he should try sitting in the back to see what I was seeing More All Things Great and Small than expected.
