Our Tours: Your bespoke tour can be for as long as you wish, from a single day to 7 days.

By enjoying a 7 day tour you really would see and experience the best of James Herriot’s Yorkshire and beyond! But if you only wish to spend just a day or a few days with us, we will show you the highlights of North Yorkshire.

If you would like to see a little more of the North of England we are also happy to take you on tours of the Lake District or Northumberland, Scotland or the Cotswolds, for as few or as many days as you wish.

Nothing like a coach tour

Enjoy the warm welcome that Yorkshire has to offer by staying at a hotel or bed and breakfast. This is not a coach trip; rather, you will be accompanied by a private guide in one of our luxury vehicles on a tour that has been designed specifically for you. Have you always wanted to go horseback riding in the Yorkshire Dales? Or fly in a light aircraft and circle the area? We are able to take care of such details on your behalf as part of the service we provide.

Travel and Accommodation

Wherever you are travelling from we will arrange to collect you and transfer you in comfort to your Yorkshire accommodation. Likewise at the end of your stay we will be very happy to take you to your onward travel at an airport, rail station, or even on to your next UK destination. In order to make the best use of your time whilst enjoying the tours with us, we recommend staying somewhere local. We have close links with many hotels and B & B’s in Thirsk, Bedale, Masham and Leyburn areas and can arrange the accommodation for you as part of the package.

You may want the luxury of Swinton Castle near Masham, a beautiful Garden Suite at The Carpenters Arms near Thirsk or simply a very comfortable B & B. Whatever you require, and subject to availability, we will organise this for you. New to 2023 is the possibility of staying as guests in a stately home between Bedale and Leyburn. This is a unique opportunity to enjoy the full hospitality of the family who have lived in and owned the Hall and land for generations. Availability is limited and early booking is recommended. Please just let us know your accommodation requirements and we will use our contacts, check availability in a suitable establishment, and make all the arrangements for you.
