A wonderful day in the Dales
Chris was an awesome tour guide, very knowledgeable about the show and filming locations and very enthusiastic about the Dales. He included information about the history and even some vocabulary lessons. He was very flexible and easy to work with. Of our almost three weeks in Great Britain, this tour was definitely a highlight. I would highly recommend booking this tour that accentuated the beauty of the Dales and why it appealed to Alf White so much.

Ghost Bus Tour of York
Jollydollys, Sep 2026
Ghostly Experience
We booked the evening Bus tour and wasn't disappointed. Phil our guide was very entertaining. We were taken on a walk to The Shambles and he told us about the history of the road and then walked to a place where people would have their heads chopped off! Phil then told us a story if what was once a hotel across the road and where ghosts have been seen and to take photos of which most if us did. We then got back on the bus to finish the tour. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Not until the next day when I was going through my photos, that the one I took of the 'hotel' Phil was in front of me and looks very strange, either he is a ghost or there was a ghost in front of him, half his arms are missing! It could be a trick of the light but who knows, Spooky 👻 What do you think?

Don't pass up this tour!
We booked a last minute trip away to York for my birthday and discovered Ben's York on a fork whilst looking for some activities to do whilst there to take a visit to the yearly food fair. We are very glad we did. Ben was super knowledgeable and a really friendly guy, not only about food but also some of the town's history. He was absolutely the perfect guide to take us around York and discover what it had to offer. Especially if you would like to try local dishes in the area with not only a great history and tradition, but also modern twists. The food and drinks selected in this 3 hour tour were all such amazing quality and the Yorkshire pudding at the end was probably the highlight for me, a simple dish but done so well (you could have a desert option too). He also takes dietary needs into consideration, so let him know if you have any allergies! From authentic fish and chips, to gin tasting, cheese and chocolate to tacos, plus more, you will not leave hungry and you certainly will want to take some of the produce back as a souvenir. We had a nice group size of about 10 to 12 people and we made friends, that we actually went out with a few of them in the evening for drinks together. Don't pass this tour up, it is such a unique perspective to tour York and discover so much about the area, it is worth the price.

A fantastic day. The driver/guide was excellent and could not have done more. I have done this trip a few years ago, but Mark was better - informative, helpful. This was excellent value for money and actually worth more.

Wow!
Wow! Was dreading this a bit due to a back issue and wasn’t sure if my back would cope with the movement. How wrong was I , Nicky our bus driver drove the bus with such care, she was polite, friendly and humorous. Steve the tour guide was so knowledgeable, funny and made our time on the bus unforgettable. I can’t recommend them and the company enough. You can also download an app to see when the next bus is due for your hop on, hop off experience, a fab way to tour York.

The best way to see the best of the North Yorkshire moors
Been on the North Yorkshire Moors trip today with family and we can't recommend it enough. We met John our driver and guide at Popplewell Bar park and ride bang on 9am and from the second he picked us up we were entertained and educated with his many stories and wealth of historical information. We were expertly driven around the most beautiful countryside seeing areas only locals would know about, stopping at the best places for photos and walks etc . A day of memories made many thanks John you made it fabulous.

Excellent tour, got to see some places we perhaps wouldn’t have gone to normally, but are now on our list of places we would go back to. The steam train to Whitby goes through some extremely scenic countryside and was in itself a good experience.. Greg was an excellent guide and the small group made it easy to have ‘one to one’ chats. Can highly recommend.
