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.

Great day out - The trip went well as it was only a small partly so Derek the driver had more time to spend with us. He was very knowledgable of the area and a good driver especially down the narrow roads e took us down.

Winter Wonderland - Our guide, Mark P, was fantastic! This is our 2nd time on this tour, and it was exciting to view the scenery in a different season. Mark had the right balance between sharing facts and stories and letting us enjoy the scenery along the way.

Truly Amazing! - I wasn’t expecting that much due to the bad weather which is already a norm in Lake District but it becomes a very unforgettable experience. Thanks to our tour guide Stef who makes the most of our day very remarkable. The destinations were absolutely stunning and a very good value for a money. Stef was truly knowledgeable with the top attractions giving us enough facts to be aware of the story behind certain places. The crowd is very lively during the tour and will definitely suggest to my friends who will plan for a vist at Lake District.
