“Ian was wonderful, patiently taught my daughter and all of us how to navigate and use the sails. It was lovely weather . We were late but he accomadated our request and gave us extra sailing time.”
A small-group Lake District road trip with 10 lakes, story-rich guides, and an included Ullswater boat cruise.
“The lake district is beautiful. Our guides Jillian and Sandra were knowledgeable about the lakes and fun to spend the day with. Visited a market, had a boat ride and visited a historic Gingerbread and fudge shop and spent time at a working slate mine. Stopped for many photo opportunities on the hillside and visited the mysterious rock formations at Castle Riggstone circle. Many tourists were in the area so traffic was a challenge but Sandra handled it like a champ! Overall the day was beautiful, interesting and fun.”
Every kind of day out in the country, best first.
