Reviews
The trip is easily one of the most memorable day trip I have. We seen great sceneries such as the lake and the mountains and enjoyed the fresh air. It’s like stepping into fairy tales locations. Our driver and guide, Scott had shared with us stories behind the locations we visited and helped us with family photos with the beautiful sceneries. It was not easy to drive in small path in the mountains and Scott did it skillfully. Scott even took extra miles to park nearer to a little cafe when the group decided to buy some hot drinks in the cold weather impromptu as the weather had not been the best. Highly recommend this day trip if one comes by Manchester and have a day to spare.
By far, this is the most value for money tour as i ever booked with KLOOK. The tour guide was so kind and considered as i brought 3 small kids together and most important thing the places were amazing and breathtaking. We enjoyed every moment of it. You guys should try this and will never regret it! Trust me..
We really enjoyed the tour. Our guide Chris was really knowledgeable about British history and the area we’re visiting. He’s also really humourous so the tour was fun. The sights at Conwy Castle and the town, Snowdonia National Park was amazing as well. Chester was lovely, definitely worth a second visit. Order of photos: Snowdonia>Conwy>Chester
wonderful experience, beautiful place, i loved it. thanks to driver/guide Mr. Paul for showing us those places, he is a nice person. Worth booking this tour if you are a nature lover..
Definitely the best one day tour from Manchester. Lake District has picturesque views. fun to take the boat cruise and steam train.
This trip put the Lake District on my pocket list early, and after comparison, I chose Klook. The price is affordable and the introduction is detailed. I was lucky enough to ride on a brand new Mercedes-Benz minibus. The journey was comfortable and the scenic spots were all beautiful. The only pity was that the stay was short. The cruise ship and the train are also fun, but the train is older. This itinerary is highly recommended for those who are going there for the first time and are unable to drive by themselves.
it was good, the weather was pleasant. Would've preferred some more information provided on the history of the surroundings from the guide, they were willing to answer questions though. The surroundings were surreal and the boat ride was a lot of fun. We stopped at many small towns along the way which was also fun.
well organised trip wity great views and tour guide
It is very convenient to depart from Manchester. There is a small bus with about 20 people, but only nine people were seated that day. The tour guide and driver worked alone but he was very responsible, knowledgeable and friendly.
The lake area is actually very big and you can enjoy it slowly, but if you don’t have time, this itinerary is a good arrangement. It includes cruise and train tickets. Just not having to drive yourself saves a lot of energy. It is especially recommended for elderly people.
