Where will my tour start?
How do you tailor your tour to me?
How much should I expect to pay for my tour?
Prices are for the guide fee only (£150 for half day tours, and £250 for full day tours).
This fee does not include any additional costs for your lunch, travel and entry fees to attractions (eg. museums, galleries). Your tailored itinerary will set out these additional costs.
We will share this with you before asking you to make your booking. You are asked to prepare cash and/or carry a credit card on the day of your tour to cover these costs.
* Prices for Bespoke Hidden Lakeland tours are determined by your requirements.
How fit do I need to be?
So long as you are frank with me about how much you can do, we will tailor your tour to a route and pace you are comfortable with.
For this reason, do please do let me know at the outset if you have a pre-existing medical condition that we should be aware of when planning your tour.
What should I wear and bring?
You should wear or carry a light raincoat, given that it rains frequently and often without warning in Lakeland.
You will need cash (essential) and a credit card (optional) for food and transportation. Carrying some water, an umbrella, a snack, and a camera is highly advisable.
What will I do for meals on my tour?
The UK has far more variety than you may have been led to expect, offering delicious local foods and beverages as well as international cuisine.
Vegetarians and vegans are generally well provided for, and most restaurants and pubs have menus that show clearly foods that are meat-free, dairy-free and acceptable for those with an allergy to gluten, nuts, etc.
Please remember that as your tour price does not include the cost of any food or drink consumed during your tour, you will be expected to bring cash or a credit card with you on the day of your tour to pay for your food and drink purchases.
What do I do about my luggage?
Many hotels and guest houses offer their customers luggage storage facilities, for free or for a small charge. You are strongly advised to take advantage of such facilities where available.
What about toilet facilities?
How do I book?
