Great tour and guides. Driver and guide were very knowledgeable and accommodating. If I had to change anything I would suggest more time at the Hill Top house. Many thanks

We've just done the 8 lakes tour for a second time because we enjoyed the tour so much the first time. Tour operators are so knowledgeable about the area and local history, thank you Tim for a fantastic afternoon - see you next time we're in the Lakes

This was a very special tour Tim our guide was a delight He was so knowledgeable about the terrain and all the history of the places we visited. Well done.

Enjoyed our 21st wedding anniversary today with Sandra and Gillian. Both very knowledgeable about the area! We had fun with our fellow solo guest. Visited all the right places that we wanted to see today.

What a wonderful morning trip delving into the life of Beatrix Potter! There was just a mass of detail that we knew nothing about. Tim, out driver and host, became a friend indeed during this trip that we shared with two Americans and two Aussies. We drove at a leisurely pace (or rather Tim drove) through the wonderful Lake District where Beatrix Potter set her stories. We had time to wander round Hill Top, the house that Peter Rabbit bought (or rather his sales funds bought). This was fascinating. Stories about Wray Castle, Tarn Hows and Hawshead Village added to our delight. So many links from the views we had to the illustrations in the “little books”. Tim added details about The Campbell Family when we saw Coniston Water in addition to the sight of so many farms that Beatrix bought. He added to that a summary of Wordsworth’s life in The Lakes. We drove over roads so narrow that a bus couldn’t have used them, feeling safe in Tim’s hands at the wheel. Thanks Tim for a great morning out in the sunshine that you specially arranged for our trip.

Lovely tour especially for Beatrix Potter admirers. Our guide was very informative and showed us around her world. He had brought the books so we can see the real live building Ms Potter used in her book and compare the two side by side. He was also knowledgeable about her philanthropic works and all she did for the community. Pick up and drop off was just as advised on the ticket and there was no trouble figuring out who you’re meeting. Enjoyed all the various places we were taken and not just Hilltop Farm. Got to see where Beatrix lived with her husband, William Heeler. The guide kept a good running commentary but wasn’t talking all the time so you had time to enjoy the views. Highly recommend going with this company if you’re in the Lake District and want a half day tour of Beatrix Potter’s world!

Our driver and guide was so knowledgeable. He timed the whole experience perfectly with all the right stories at the right time. He spoke just enough at each stop to set the stage for what we were seeing and to be excited about it. He was responsive to questions and had a great sense of humor. I liked all the stops we took. They helped paint a perfect picture of Beatrix Potter’s life and of the Lake District.

Tim was the best tour guide I’ve ever had, and I’ve been on a lot of tours. He was interesting and incredibly knowledgeable as well as funny and friendly. The tour took us to more sites than we expected and taught us so much about Beatrix as well as the history of the area. He answered all our questions in detail with great enthusiasm. I highly recommend this tour!

Great tour. Tim was so knowledgeable, funny, and generous with information. An excellent driver through many tight situations. Just an all around nice person. Can’t recommend highly enough. Of our 10 day holiday this was the high point in large part due to Tim.

Our daytrip into the Yorkshire Dales was beyond all expectations. Our driver/guide John S was not only knowledgeable, but also a save driver. We heard and saw a lot about the tv series. Not only that, also about other films. He couldn’t have done me a greater pleasure by taking us to Bolton- and Middleham castle where we could soak up some of the UK’s interesting history. I highly recommend this tour.

Highly recommend this spectacular tour through the beautiful Lake District. We were in good hands with our incredibly knowledgeable guide, Gillian, and fearless driver, Sandra. The fun stories and scenic highlights made the hours fly by. We made it to Grasmere just in time to pick up some famous gingerbread. A perfect tour!

Magnificent! They were on time, very pleasant and full of information. We feel Like we saw true highlights of the Lake Country in only 4 hours.

Great tour with very knowledgeable guide who told us things we never knew about her life. Well worth the trip and recommend this company

Tim's accounts of Beatrix Potter were so interesting. I learned so much about this amazing woman in such a wonderful way. Tim used Beatrix's stories and drawings to illustrate his accounts and taught us that she was sO much more than her stories. Everybody should learn about her - she is an example to the world. Thank you Tim!

We had an excellent tour. Tim, our guide, was knowledgeable and helpful, gave us a lot of information about the area and showed us a number of lovely spots. Definitely worth taking.
