Totally worth it! The driver + guide is very experienced and friendly too! it was a perfect size for a day tour trip. Unfortunately the weather was not the best, still we managed to finish all spots and it worths still! Remember to drop by KITTchEN: P*ssy & Pints! Amazing bar!! Mind that the pick up point for the trip is a bit hard to find in Google Map though.

The tour guide was very interesting and humorous, and the itinerary wasn't too strenuous. The attractions were well-arranged and offered good value for money. The only downside was the extremely hot weather; the air conditioning on the tour bus wasn't cold enough, so the temperature inside the bus remained high during the midday and afternoon.

What to know before visiting Cumbria

Cumbria at a glance

Cumbria’s Klook bookings are led by tours, and demand peaks in the summer months when visitors flock to outdoor sights and countryside excursions. Bookings drop sharply in late autumn and winter, giving the destination a clear high-season rhythm.

Best time to visit and how prices move

Klook data show the busiest months are June and August, while demand falls to its lowest in December. Prices on Klook typically reach their high around July and remain elevated in August and June, then drift down through autumn into November when Klook bookings have historically been among the cheapest. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for November or the quieter winter months; for full summer atmosphere and the liveliest schedule of tours, choose June to August. Overall, demand and prices mostly move together: summer months are both busier and pricier on Klook, while late autumn is calmer and more budget-friendly.

Tips for travellers from Hong Kong

Most visitors from Hong Kong book their Cumbria activities a few weeks ahead: typical Klook bookings happen around 18 days before travel, with many locking things in about five weeks early during busy periods. If you travel on short notice you can still find options, but planning around three to five weeks ahead gives the best selection for popular summer dates. Use Klook to compare tour options and secure preferred time slots, especially for peak-month departures.
