Had the best day out with Howard yesterday. As a Yorkshire Dales local there was nothing he didn’t know. His commentary and knowledge made for the best day out - and not even the rain and wind could ruin our day! Get on this tour!!

The Coit try side was beautiful beyond my expectations. And, we learned much more about the places we drove through and stop to visit because our guide was so knowledgeable of the history, geography and current lifestyle of the area and engaging

We have used BOBH, best of British holidays for the last 5 years. Every time we visit York we book a tour. We have had Howard and Mark and they are both absolutely great driver/guides. Both so knowledgeable and accommodating. They are FAB and cannot wait for our next trip to York. ❤️❤️❤️

Howard was a wonderful guide through the dales, where he was brought up. He neither explained too much nor too little, which is a rare capacity in a guide. He navigated all the narrow roads (lanes?) with skill and was ready to stop whenever we wanted pix. The villages are charming, including those where both versions of "All Creatures Great and Small" were filmed, but the real star of the tour is the gorgeous countryside.

It was such a relaxing and beautiful tour through the countryside, we loved it. The pace was perfect, and we learned so much.

What a fantastic tour of the Dales we had. Lucy went above and beyond to accommodate my requests and location preferences to make our tour as perfect as possible. The itinerary she and Alan suggested was exactly what I’d hoped for and we had an unforgettable day. What a beautiful place the Yorkshire Dales are and not only was Alan, our guide and driver, passionate about them but also very knowledgeable. When we next visit York we will definitely chose BOBH day trip tours and do the Yorkshire Moors and Whitby. Can’t wait!

Ken S

This private tour took us around the Yorkshire Dales with a stop at the Wensleydale Creamery in Hawes for a ‘cheese platter’ lunch. Howard was a knowledgeable and entertaining guide and we thoroughly enjoyed our day.

Ann M

We spent a wonderful day with Chris touring the Dales. He is extremely knowledgeable, providing lots of history and general information. Chris tailored the trip to our wishes, with a nice mix of touring in the comfortable bus and plenty of time for walking about and visiting various sites. Highly recommended.
