Overall rating
the drive to the first drop off point was quite long but driver stopped us at some gas stations for toilet breaks and snacks. we had quite a few stops at some beautiful places we would never had seen. the tea was at the home of the mother of Beatrix potter. it was the most beautiful place I had ever seen in my life and we were treated really well.
It was a great day. Well planned. The driver, David, was amazing. He was very polite and well informed of the whereabouts. Greatly recommend.
Duncan was very knowledgeable and entertaining. A good day trip packed with amazing views. Highly recommended.
