Perfect Day! - What a tremendous day! We love ACGAS and dreamed of seeing the places it’s been filmed. We saw Pumphrey Manor; the crossroads where James first arrived and meets Helen; the church where Helen calls it off with Hugh; the bridge where James and Hugh struggle to decide who will back up and let the other through; the main town used for Darrowby (including the front Skeldale house, the Drovers Arms, the green grocers); the village green where James meets the bus when his parents arrive for the wedding;the Falcon Inn, where his parents stay; the back of Skeldale house; the exterior and interior of the churches used for James and Helen’s wedding; and the Alderson’s farm; and had a delightful lunch at the pub used for one of the interiors of the Drovers Arms. It was truly a delightful way to see the Yorkshire Dales come alive through and outside of the lens of the show! Our guide, Tim, was excellent! He has really taken the time to study up on the show and the real-life James Herriot (Alf White), enjoys the show as much as his guests, and was just a delight to spend the day with asking about the Dales then and now. The pace was leisurely and he let us take as many pictures was we wanted and explore as long as we wanted (obviously keeping us to the schedule). At each stop, he also shows us scene where the location was used, indicating directions and things to notice about the scene and the reality. He also spent time tell on us about the history or other unique characteristics of the places we visited. It was just the best day! We loved it and would recommend the tour to anyone who is a fan of the show or just wants to see the Dales in a unique way.

All creatures but mainly sheep! - Our daytrip into the Yorkshire Dales was beyond all expectations. Our driver/guide John S was not only knowledgeable, but also a save driver. We heard and saw a lot about the tv series. Not only that, also about other films. He couldn’t have done me a greater pleasure by taking us to Bolton- and Middleham castle where we could soak up some of the UK’s interesting history. I highly recommend this tour.

Would do another tour with the company. - The scenery of the Dales and the descriptions from the excellent tour guide of the geography of the area. Lunch location and food great. The church in which Helen and James got married was beautiful.

Yorkshire Dales countryside steals the show!! - We had a wonderful day on the tour with our very knowledgeable and informative guide, John. The weather couldn't have been better and while we didn't get time to explore Bolton Castle while there we did get to enjoy a wild bird (owls/falcon) experience all with the beautiful Yorkshire Dales countryside as a backdrop. Would have loved more time in Grassington but did enjoy a pint at the Drovers' Pub (ummm Devonshire) and enjoy walking around the centre of town. Would highly recommend.

Tour Great, Van Cramped - The tour itself was good. The driver/guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and fun. However, we had seven large people in the van and it was extremely uncomfortable. I understand the need to minimize costs but we felt cramped the entire time. It was a seven passenger van, but there should have been no more than five passengers to give us room to breathe.
