Mesmerising beauty - It was a delightful day. The Lake District is extremely beautiful. Loved the views, especially the Langdale Valley. Though it rained heavily during the day, we managed to enjoy the spectacular beauty. Shelly, our guide was very helpful and sweet.
I personally adored the way she told us stories about the villages as we crossed them.
The highlight was sighting the gorgeous herdwick sheeps.
Our day ended with grabbing the world famous Grasmere gingerbread from Wordsworth’s native village- Grasmere.
All in all, it was a wonderful experience.

Best Tour Ever – Lake District Brought to Life - Today I joined a Lake District tour, and I can honestly say it was the most amazing tour I’ve ever been on. Our lovely guide and driver, Shelly, was absolutely fantastic. With her simple and heartfelt storytelling, I didn’t just see the Lake District—I truly experienced it. I’m so grateful for all the wonderful details she shared and the fascinating facts I learned throughout the day. A huge thank you for an unforgettable experience!
On top of all that, I have to mention how smoothly the whole day went—even with my two daughters, aged 3 and 11, by my side. Thanks to Shelly’s experienced and thoughtful guidance, everything went perfectly. No stress, no hassle—just a wonderful day for all of us.
Thank you, BusyBus, and thank you, Shelly!
