★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,717 reviews · 8 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $76Our pick

A small-group full-day mini-coach tour from Windermere packing Lake District highlights, stone circles, and villages with guided commentary.

“Absolutely worth every penny, saw places we wouldn't have seen on our own and the information our driver gave us was fantastic. We got some great photo opportunities at places we stopped off at and even time for lunch in Keswick. I say this trip is a must if you come to the lakes. We had lots of laughs throughout the day and met some lovely people on our coach. Will definitely be coming back and doing more tours with them.”
