Weymouth Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

From start to finish Paul provided a full 3 hours of pleasure. He was totally engaging - providing a full introduction to his hometown of Weymouth and its history. Knowledgeable, entertaining, and energetic, his walk and talk was full of great information about the town and those who have played big roles in its history. Even if you've got a full schedule make space in your itinerary and add to your enjoyment of Weymouth by spending a Sunday morning with Paul's Walking Tour.

Well worth the tour. Paul is local and likes to share information on local events and history. Also at end of tour he will happily share leaflets on other local attractions.

We had such an amazing time at the sea life it was lovely the animals was amazing we was able to watch the feeding of the seals and otters as well as seeing the other animals

Fantastic variety of fish, great information provided. Penguins and tunnel were our favourite, Fun day out.

This was just the right amount of time spent on the transport and time walking around the sites. The views were beautiful. Most were best seen after a short hike to a viewing area. Our guide Tim and our driver Pete were the highlight of the experience. Tim was so knowledgeable about the area, and it was easy to tell how much he genuinely loves it. Pete was a great driver and though he didn't say much he was always ready with an answer when Tim needed him to fill in a fact he couldn't remember! It isn't a huge group of people which makes it very comfortable for traveling. We were on a mini bus and not every seat was full. We felt we got enough individual attention. We booked this as a cruise excursion and felt very confident that we would be back well before our all-aboard time. We were actually back with hours to spare. I highly recommend this excursion. It was so much more enjoyable and a much better value than port excursions booked through the ship.

This was a lovely tour with Tim and Peter. The views were stunning and the commentary friendly and engaging. We had time to explore Weymouth. I heartily recommend it!

Spencer was a *great* guide and, in spite of what his daughters say, he has very funny jokes. Group of 8 in an excellent van (with good A/C) was the perfect size for this trip. He took us to places I hadn’t even heard of and recommended the best photo spots. We tried Dorset Cream Tea and a Cornish Pastry, both excellent. The stop at Corfu Castle could’ve allowed more time, perhaps, but we saw what we wanted and would love to return someday — which is the point of this kind of multi-stop excursion. He took us to a superior point to view both Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove; I’d never had known about them if we were driving on our own, as we have on our past 6 trips to the UK. HIGHEST recommendation for Spencer, the company, and Sally — who was very quick with questions while booking.

Wow! Can’t say enough positive things about our guides and this tour! This electric bike tour was informative, exhilarating and well paced. Highly recommend this for an active family who enjoys sightseeing, history and cycling!

Thanks to our wonderful guide Danny. We had and incredible day during the 7 hours excursion around the Jurassic coast. We saw so much and all the explanations were so interesting ! A perfect balance of nature and cities and so much beautiful memories. We would highly recommend Dorset Tours if you are on a cruise docking at Portland !!

Given the few hours our ship was in port, we were able to visit many of the sights on the Portland peninsula that most visitors miss. It was a much better choice than spending those few hours entirely on a bus, only to hop out, shoot a couple quick photos, and get back on the bus. Our guide Nick, gave the two of us a more personal tour than would be possible with a larger bus tour.

A great experience. Got to see so much of the town. It was fast and wild. I’m 58 and made it to the top. Great guides, made us feel safe.

We had the best tour ever ! Andy the guide was super knowledgeable and looked after us really well. James the driver was very professional. We had a smooth ride. There is a little bit of climbing to do, so you will need the right footwear.

It was a lot of walking, sometimes difficult, but well worth it! Our tour guide Andy was amazing..he communicated with us and told us exactly where and when to meet him with specific instructions on what to wear and bring! He was very knowledgable!

Neil took our group of 4 on the most beautiful ride! It started in his shop where he was very thorough in how to use the e-bike (its pedal assist not throttle type) & safety. We were able to stop when we wanted throughout the 20 mile ride. He took us all around Portland & Weymouth, all the way up to the prison for an amazing view, and provided background history of many of the places we stopped. We went through a quarry and saw some great sculptures from local artists. We rode down to Portland Bill for a terrific vegan lunch at The Lobster Pot (they have a menu for carnivores too). Im not gonna lie, it wasn't easy, my legs and butt were very confused about the amount of work they were putting in. I can say it was completely worth it! If you are physically able, this is definitely a day trip not to be glossed over.

This is a transportation only excursion. However, the driver was very knowledgeable about the area and was able to add a lot to the trip. I was disappointed that the transportation did not include Salisbury and Salisbury Cathedal.

Excellent experience. Convenient pick up and drop off. Guide, Erika, was knowledgeable and tailored tour to our groups interests. Nathan our driver was excellent as well. We learned a lot about the area as well as the destinations. Overall 10/10 would repeat, really a must do if this is on your radar.
