A good half-day tour. - The videos helped orient our memories to various scenes and I enjoyed seeing the locations in situ. It makes you appreciate the expertise of all the people who are involved in the making of the show. Although there were few people on the tour, they still used a large coach, which made navigating or stopping to take pictures impractical. The guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

A good way to spend an afternoon. - The bus was on time, clean and comfortable. I enjoyed seeing the clips of the show which highlighted what we were to see. There were enough comfort stops outside of Newcastle. Personally, I didn't do all the walks, but had the option of looking around the area or staying on the bus. The guide was knowledgeable and cheerful. It was a good afternoon.

Vera in focus - Loved the tour. We headed to the Quayside and out to the coast. A video on the coach put the places we visited in to focus for us. Tour guide was very informative too.

Well worth the trip. - The experience was memorable thanks to the tour guide (Amanda) who clearly new her stuff and the driver of the coach (Grant) who drove the coach with professionalism in some very tight situations. Covered quite a large area in Northumberland on our full day tour.

Nice enough - It was alright. A few clips from five or so episodes on the bus and commentary that lacked detail. Nice enough, but not amazing. The coach driver was very accommodating.
