Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I did the half day tour last year which my children bought me as a Christmas gift the previou year. I thoroughly enjoyed that day so last Christmas they purchased the full day. What an amazing day! Fran is an excellent guide, knowledgeable about Vera and the locations. Plenty of references to scenes in the series gorgeous scenery, renewed my acquaintance with Lindisfarne. Stopped off in Seahouses for fish and chips. If you love Vera this really is the tour for you, even saw Vera's land-rover driving off Lindisfarne as we were going towards it.I'll be booking for next year.

Absolutely fantastic day in Northumberland. Eight hours of guided tour by the wonderfully knowledgeable Anna and superb driving by Gary. We visited Vera's home on Lindisfarne along with numerous locations of murder scenes all interspersed with DVD's setting the scene for us. We travelled north from Newcastle to Amble, Alnmouth, Seahouses, Bamburgh, Lindisfarne, Warkworth, Alnwick. Stopping regularly for comfort breaks and refreshments as well as the best vantage points for photo opportunities. For October the weather was wonderful. Some walking to Vera's home halfway along the Causeway was required, comfortable shoes are a must.

Great Vera tour with our guide Ann, who not only provided all the Vera information, but had many stores and anecdotes of sites related to the tour. Wonderful and a day very well spent. Just some amazing scenery and Holy Island was a treat to visit. If you are from the Maritimes, the coastal scenery will feel like a taste of home.

Had a superb day, Fran, Amanda and Josh were excellent and extremely knowledgable. Great to hear about the background of the Vera books as well as the history of the area. The clips from the to series that showed the locations that we visited also added to the experience. All in all a wonderful day and would highly recommend this to everyone.

Having successfully negotiated the Metro we arrived at the pick up point for the Vera
tour . We were greeted by our guide and were able to get the front seats. My wife and i thought the tour was wonderful as we had never been to Newcastle before and were very impressed.We visited various locations and during the tour our guide Anna Unger gave us a vast amount of history and facts about the city and the filming locations. Anna was brilliant, very informative with a sense of humour, everything a tour guide should be. The tour at 4hrs seems long but it is not we had 3 breaks and the time flies when you are enjoying yourself. Would strongly recommend this tour

Partner and I had done some initial "Vera touring" on our own prior to this tour. Our guide for the day (Anna U) provided an informative commentary throughout our 4 hour tour. The coach on which we travelled was brand new and the most comfortable either of us have experienced. The coach driver (Walter) negotiated some tight spaces calmly and professionally. Would recommend this not only for the Vera onformation but for the other insights into Newcastle.

Excellent tour, a must for Vera fans. Plenty of information and facts. Fantastic scenery. Only let down by the coach. It was very hot! Asked the driver to make it cooler and put on the fan for about 30 seconds before turning it off before driving off. Also we had to sit at the back and every time the guide said look to your left all we saw was the toilet! Perhaps change the coach?

Loved it! Fran, tour tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, sharing so much detail and fun facts! Our driver was terrific as well. Only wish we had more time on Lindisfarne/Holy Island to soak in the atmosphere. What a unique place. As a huge Vera fan, I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Northumberland is gorgeous, even if it rained most of the day Lol! I was born in Wallsend so the rain was no surprise LOL! I highly recommend this tour!!

This tour was brilliant from start to finish.
Fran our Tour Guide was amazing. She is a lovely warm, friendly lady who knows her topic through and through plus her knowledge of the local History was so informative.
Not to forget Jordan our tour driver who made it possible to get there!
Our visit to The Holy Island was really great and then Seahouses where we had lunch and of course Fish & Chips, Vera's favourite food!!
The Coastal Road drive back to Newcastle took us through picturesque villages and we were given plenty of photo stops.
I would thoroughly recommend this all day tour for Vera Fans and of you are not a watcher you soon will be!!
