What a fantastic tour of the Dales we had.
Lucy went above and beyond to accommodate my requests and location preferences to make our tour as perfect as possible.
The itinerary she and Alan suggested was exactly what I’d hoped for and we had an unforgettable day.
What a beautiful place the Yorkshire Dales are and not only was Alan, our guide and driver, passionate about them but also very knowledgeable.
When we next visit York we will definitely chose BOBH day trip tours and do the Yorkshire Moors and Whitby. Can’t wait!
