Overview

Best half-day tour for scenery. Your morning will be spent touring around some of the most spectacular scenery in the whole of the Lake District. This is a stress free, easy way to see a lot of the Lake District in a morning without feeling rushed. You have time to soak up the views and even paddle in a lake if you are brave enough. It is a great way for getting an overview of the Lake District, its culture, history and of course, its amazing scenery. You will get plenty of variety, see magnificent scenery, eat gingerbread and get all the facts, figures and fascinating stories from our friendly, knowledgeable guides and drivers who know the area well. Travelling in a comfortable mini-van with air con & phone charging ports as one of only 6/7 passengers you will find it is easy to ask questions and join in the conversation (if you want to). There are lots of stops for photos and fresh air. It is a great morning out and we can't wait to share it with to you.

A wonderful tour capturing the essence of the Lakes District!

Published on Mar, 2025

My husband and I loved the 8 Lakes tour. We appreciated the small group tour with our tour guide Tim. The countryside was beautiful and serene and Tim was very knowledgeable, witty and absolutely added to our enjoyment of this wonderful tour. Pleased to recommend!

Wet Lakes Tour

Published on Feb, 2025

We were so lucky to be the only people on the trip. The weather was awful - rain and wind. However this did not stop us having a great tour. The driver Tim was fantastic, so knowledgeable, friendly and such a safe driver. I would recommend this trip to everyone

Absolutely fantastic

Published on Feb, 2025

Absolutely fantastic. We really couldn't have enjoyed it more. Tim, our brilliant guide, was constantly entertaining. His local knowledge of everything — history, geology, mythology, food, architecture, farming, politics, culture (including Wordsworth, Coleridge, Robert Southey, All Creatures Great And Small, Donald Campbell and Bluebird, Hardwicke Rawnsley, The Manchester Corporation and, of course, Beatrix Potter, who is *so much more* than we thought she was) — plus sheep (there's a lot to learn) — was AMAZING. There wasn't a single question he couldn't answer. We saw the eight lakes, plus towns, villages, viewpoints, waterfalls, corpse roads, Wordsworth’s grave, Castlerigg Stone Circle, the smallest house in the Lake District and the best smelling shop IN THE WORLD. 10/10. Would recommend to everyone, all day long. Wonderful.

Winter Wonderland

Published on Jan, 2025

While the Lakes are wonderful to visit in summer, the crisp winter air and falling snow gave the region additional beauty and majesty. Tim was a fantastic guide, adapting the tour based on the weather, and providing fascinating insights on any and all topics. This is a must do activity when in the region. Can't wait to go back and explore the rest soon.
