    A wonderful day out, with a very jolly and knowledgeable tour guide. Thank you Jean. Unfortunately the seats were rather narrow on the coach which made traveling time rather squashed and uncomfortable.

    Our group of six had a great day with Gordon on a custom 8 hour tour of the area around Windermere, visiting Wray Castle, Beatrix Potter's Hill Top retreat, Tarn Hows, and Hawkshead, and finishing up with an enjoyable visit to Sizergh Castle. Gordon is very knowledgeable about the history and geography of Cumbria and the life of Beatrix Potter, and he graciously answered our many questions while skillfully and patiently negotiating one-lane roads, blind turns, and steep hills in a 16-passenger minibus. We particularly enjoyed his back alleys tour of Hawkshead, where we encountered the village haunts of the young William Wordsworth without encountering any other tourists! We enjoyed a lovely Sunday roast dinner at the Queens Head pub in Hawkshead, where the food was delicious and the service efficient and cheerful. We thoroughly explored Sizergh Castle in the afternoon and got a little carried away in the gift shop. It was a lovely day spent in a lovely setting with a very pleasant and well-informed guide. Thank you!

    Gerry was our driver for the Beatrix Potter tour and Shery took us on the Wordsworth tour. I can thoroughly recommend them both. We had a brilliant time both days. A wealth of information from them both and very good drivers. Lots of photo stops. We were a group of 16 staying in Keswick and were picked up where we were staying and dropped back again. Both very friendly and good company.
