Traveled for first time to the UK explicitly for a tour of Vera production area. Dream come true. Loved it

The tour guide, Amanda, really made it very interesting as she brought insight from having beena supporting artist on the actual show. She and the driver, Walter, managed to find a reasonable workaround when we unexpectedly encountered a road closure. As someone who was brought up in the North East, she also provided a lot of local information which I didn't know about.

Good coverage of scenes in the Vera series, with video replays to jog our memories. Also served as a good intro to local Newcastle sites. The coach was also very comfortable.

We had a gift for a half day Vera tour. Our guide was the incredibly enthusiastic Fran and in capable safe hands with driver Bryn. I would say to anyone who hasn't watched Vera this is also a good tour for you as there is lots of information about the locality also not relating to Vera. History of Newcastle, shipyards, first lightbulbs, museums etc. We learnt so much. The coach was on time, immaculate - in fact never seen a coaches windows so clean. Around Newcastle up to Whitley Bay, Tynemouth, pass Seaton Delval Hall, the coast etc. It was just wonderful we enjoyed it immensely. There were people from all over on the tour, America, Australia etc and also all ages. Thank you to Fran, the enthusiasm, the knowledge, the well researched facts. This tour was full and a lot of people going on the full day tour the following day. Absolutely fantastic thank you to all and also for hosting this tour to show the beautiful North East to the world. EXCEPTIONAL. Btw everyone had a great view.

Was a very good tour, Fran the guide was an excellent guide, visited a number of the filming locations, after watching clips on the TV along the way before visiting the scenes, was also given a lot of information about Newcastle. Would recommend this tour.

Excellent tour for all fans of Vera. Lots of interesting facts and great scenery. We saw lots of filming locations and the snippets of Vera videos before we arrived was great.

The tour started promptly with Fran introducing herself & our driver Mark. She then went on to outline what we could expect from our tour There was plenty of Vera related information throughout the tour interspersed with clips from the TV series that tied in with where we were at the time. Fran was an enthusiastic & entertaining guide who included information about the area in general alongside the Vera related information. This all added to the experience. There were stops along the way where we could leave the coach & get a drink/ice cream if we wanted to. We had a very enjoyable trip which even my husband, who isn’t a stalwart Vera fan, enjoyed. Well worth going on this tour. The scenery was also beautiful.
