Best tour ever!

Published on May, 2025

It’s incredible. The weather was really bad and Mark tried his best to change the itinerary and add check points to make us feel better. The experience is heartwarming and unforgettable !

The best way to experience the Lake Disctrict if hiking not your thing.

Published on Mar, 2025

I highly recommend Mountain Goat tours. My husband & I normally just explore places for ourselves, however this tour really was a high point of our holiday, and will absolutely take another tour by this company. We didn't have to worry about parking both of us could check out the views en-route to each stop and all stops were excellently timed, not too long or short. Our tour Guide Peter Fox (not Rabbit) was very welcoming and had great commentry throughout the tour, pointing out many things along the way to each stop, that we would have not noticed or knew anything about, had we toured about ourselves, this coupled with all the stops we had, really is value for money. I've taken loads of photo's and had such a memorable day even my husband agreed it was the highlight of our trip. If you're new to visiting the Lake District, a Mountain Goat tour really is the best way to see the sights & if you're fortunate enough to have Peter as you're guide you won't be disappointed. I'm really looking forward to booking another trip in the future. The icing on the cake for the day was the stunning weather.

Terrific Tour -- A Bucket List Life Moment

Published on Oct, 2024

Peter Fox was a terrific guide! The bus was warm and cozy, and the tour included all the essentials. First a wonderful boat tour of Windermere where we could stand on the top of the boat and see everything. Then a visit to the castle where Beatrix spent her summers. Peter was full of knowledge and helped us have the best tour possible. We went straight into Hill Top with no delays. So lovely! A bucket list moment for me. Very special!

Magical

Published on Oct, 2024

It was an amazing tour, very informative and culturally a realisation of a dream, to see places I have only read as a student! The cruise was very tranquil as the lake waters glistened in the sunshine!

Great tour!

Published on Mar, 2024

Tim from Mountain Goat Tours made our rainy Lake District day so much fun. Loads of information and thoughtful of our time and interests. We would highly recommend the tour and Tim! We will definitely make another trip to the Lake District for much longer than a day!!!
