A must do for all fans of the Heartbeat TV Show. - Fabulous Day Out. Being a Fan of the TV Show, it did not disappoint. Got some great pics of the Show locations. The Guide (Duncan) was friendly and knowledgeable. The Driver (Ritchie) was brilliant, especially negotiating some difficult narrow roads. The Coach was extremely comfortable. Please have some flexibility on time you need to get back to York, as the traffic can be heavy. The Show's theme tune and some 60's music on the Coach would have been a bonus. Shame that there wasn't an option to Tip the Guide and Driver.

Happy Valley tour - We were lucky to have a sunny day for our event. The guide was waiting for us when we arrived and was very well organised. Once she had checked everyone in, she handed out folders with stills photos from the show to highlight where we would be visiting on the tour. Part of the tour included a bus journey. Unfortunately there were roadworks in the town that caused quite a delay. As the local buses only ran once an hour we chose not to do this part as the traffic congestion would have added considerably on both legs of the journey. As a local resident, our guide was knowledgeable about the area and it's history and was friendly and chatty. The pavements in the town were narrow at parts meaning the group had to snake behind the guide. This resulted in only those nearest to her hearing what she said. Overall, as fans of the show it was good to see some of the locations and take memorable photos.
