A half-day trip to visit the lakes of the Lake District. An excellent experience with a very good driver. Had a great time and would recommend this. We choose this over the whole day trip as it gave us time to do other activities.

Weather held up to provide a very pleasant day with Sherry as our guide. Kept to schedule and had to handle some tricky narrow roads.

We joined a 6 lakes coach trip starting from Windermere and lasted roughly 4 hours. Our driver Tim was lively and humorous which made our rainy day less gloomy. He also helped us with fun ideas for pictures at the major photo spots. The ride was smooth and Tim gave good commentary about all the background info regarding the Lake District and it’s sights. Overall a very pleasant and efficient trip. Would recommend to friends who are first time visitors to the Lake District!
