England · BOAT TOURS IN THE LAKE DISTRICT
Good boat tours in the Lake District fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 4 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Review of Mountain Goat’s Beatrix Potter tour from Windermere, with Lake Windermere cruise, Hill Top, Hawkshead, Tarn Hows, and practical tips.
“It was amazing beautiful tour included alot more than I expected and the driver was brilliant and so knowledgeable many thanks Paula & Andy”
See Windermere, Grasmere, Hawkshead, Lancaster, and more on a small-group Lake District day tour from Manchester with a cruise.
“Really worth it, guide Darren was really informative and looked after us all really well, loved the small group set up, mini bus has huge windows so you get good views all round and Darren's knowledge of the area was impeccable. We were up in Manchester for a few days and this was an ideal excursion for us ..always wanted to visit the lakes and this was great ! Thoroughly recommended.”
See ten Lake District lakes, mountain passes, Castlerigg Stone Circle, Grasmere and an Ullswater cruise in one scenic small-group day.
“The two ladies that led our tour did an extraordinary job. This tour of the Lake Country was a major highlight of our entire 3 week trip that included a Rick Steves 13 day tour of Scotland.”
Review of the Lake District rail tour from London, with Windermere cruise, Beatrix Potter’s Hill Top, Hawkshead, and cream tea.
“We had a wonderful day. Peter our tour guide was welcoming and helpful, and had a great knowledge about the place history. The ride was lovely we had reasonable time to enjoy all stops and the cream tea was amazing. To be honest I has some doubts about the feasibility of visiting the Lake District in a day trip from London. But I think this is great if you are short of time and wish to have a taste of Lake District and don’t mind the 3h each way train journey.”
Pick the kind of day first, then the best of it in England.
