Although I had a rental car for exploring the Lake District, I thought it would be well worth it to spend a day with Mountain Goat Tours so that I, who would be driving, could enjoy the scenery and not worry about getting from A to B. Well, my daughter and I were the only two participants on a tour... More

As a non-driver and lone traveller I asked for a scenic tour at the Bowness Tourist Information Office and was booked in for the 10 Lakes Tour with the aptly-named Mountain Goat company. The driver, Tony, was a mine of information (I don't know how you remember it all Tony!), a very safe driver and infinitely patient guide. The comfy... More

We went on the Ten Lakes Spectacular tour, which was a good way to get a general feel of the Lake District since we only really had two days there. Pickup is from the hotel you're staying at - a plus! Our driver-guide was Jim, who was genial and knowledgeable. Pity that there was a group right at the front... More

We went on the whole day tour to see the Lakes on the 1st day of our stay & found it was a great way to get an overview of the area & decide where we wanted to go back & visit during the rest of our stay. Our driver Tony was very knowledgeable, giving us lots of interesting information... More

We contracted Mountain Goat Tour for 3 tours in and around the Lake District in the UK. Each was unique. Two were in areas and on roads we would not have attempted. These were vans NOT busses. The drivers/guides were friendly, courteous and above all very knowledgeable . I am sorry I do moy recall the name of pur 2... More

This was a superb experience. I really wanted to get a slightly detailed tour of the lake district but was a bit nervous about driving around so decided to book a tour with this company. Driver was friendly and very knowledgeable, had a very good understanding of the area. Took us on a breathtaking tour of the area. I would... More

See the lakes in a day, when you look at the price (£32) you might think its a bit steep (like the hills!) it is not. 10 lakes tour is about 90 miles plus boat ride on Derwent which is about £10 on its own. Lakes, towns, hills and roads I would not like to drive down and Malcolm (our... More
