Great one-day tour in Lake District

Published on Nov, 2023

Due to the disruptions and cancellations of the train, we got off it at the Preston station unexpectedly. I was confused at first because I'm a foreign tourist, but the tour agent(Evan Evans Tours) got in touch with me immediately and the local tour guide, Tim picked me up in front of the station. He was very friendly and his explanation was easy to understand for foreigner. In addition, he helped me to take pictures at a great photo spot. There are a lot of beautiful nature, so I could forget daily life and enjoy this tour. Thank you for your kind support, Tim!

Truly loved this tour. Peter was an amazing tour guide. He seems to love what he does and made the trip so memorable for us. We loved the scenery, the history, the boat ride and tea. We also enjoyed getting to know people from other countries. I highly recommend this tour.
