A very good value, effective way to see a great selection of lakes & scenery. No need to worry about driving or parking! - A really well organised & thought through tour, hosted by a professional driver whose knowledge of the history, landscape, culture & features of the area was impressive.

Incredible tour and guide - Has the most incredible days seeing the Lakes through the eyes of our guide, Steve. There was so much to learn at every point, it made seeing the breathtaking sights all the more beautiful. The weather was on our side so we were quite lucky. I highly recommend booking, you won’t regret it. Thank you for a wonderful day!

Full day tour - Absolutely top-notch tour with Steve today. His being born and bred in the Lake District makes him.the ideal guide. His knowledge of local historical celebrities, geology, agricultural development, local legends,viking invasion etc is second to none. And a great sense of humour to boot. Thanks so much, highly recommended.

Beautiful and informative - Suprise view! There were so many to mention but this comes to mind immediately. The time given for each stop was perfect, Tim was extremely mindful in giving us the opportunity to capture every moment/memory, Indicating amazing photo opportunities that we would never have captured without Tim's knowledge. I cannot wait to visit again and make more memories with the help of Mountain Goats tours and there amazing team. Tim was exceptional and we were part of a lovely group of people today that were kind and courteous to others at all times.
