Wow! What an amazing tour. Stunning scenery and picturesque villages. Wish it was longer and we had more time in Helmsley. Great guide and easy meeting point. Wonderful day.

This tour was well planned, informative, and a good balance of activity and travel. I was pleasantly surprised by the Rievaulx Abbey. We enjoyed the site, information, and ability to explore the ruins on our on at our own pace. Going to Castle Howard at the end of our tour worked very nicely into the day. We had plenty of time to see the house and grounds, and since it was the end of the day, there were fewer people, which allowed for a more leisurely tour. It was overall an excellent experience and would highly recommend.

This tour is first rate. Chris is very knowledgeable and good-natured. Loved the moors, dales, Abbeys and delightful Hutton-le-Hole. There is time to do both Helmsly and another abbey, so do ask to see both. Good mix of touristy places as well as remote and quiet countryside.

Peter was the best tour guide! Very detailed during every stop and pointing things of interest along the way. Every stop was beautiful and full of history. So glad I came and met some nice people too!

Chris was a great tour guide. We really enjoyed the small group. He was fantastic at driving through the back roads and byways of the English Countryside so that we could really get a feel for the area and we especially enjoyed having enough time at every major stop to see the sights at Rievaulx Abbey and Castle Howard...
