Our Dorset tour will take you through beautiful English countryside. We’ll explore fascinating towns, historic houses, traditional seaside resorts, and stroll along miles and miles of golden sand. Plus you can go hunting for bones on the famous Jurassic coast, where many dinosaur relics have been found…

We'll take you to see the fascinating rock formations at Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. This outstanding area forms part of the Jurassic Coast, which is famous for fossil hunting. There's a nearby fossil forest and also the sixteenth century Lulworth Castle. St Mary's Chapel is worth a look - it was designed to look like a Greek mausoleum.

Depending on what you'd like to visit in Dorset, we can take a short trip to the coastal resort of Swanage for lunch. We know a few nice places where you can sample the deilights of that great British staple - fish and chips.

Visit the Dorset village of Corfe Castle with its prominent 11th century castle of the same name. There is evidence that the area around the village has been occupied since 6000BC. See the remains of this spectacular Norman castle and spot the 'murder holes' and count the arrow loops. And then go for a cream tea afterwards in the pretty little village of Corfe.

The New Forest national park is home to the New Forest wild ponies – and seeing them wandering around is a spectacular sight. You can also see deer (the area was William the Conqueror's hunting ground). The town of Lyndhurst is a good stop-off for a spot of shopping, lunch or browsing the art galleries.

Our customers say...

"We wanted to see southern England and end up in Bath – and thanks to David, we went where we wanted, when we wanted. The cost was little more than the alternatives, and the convenience alone was worth every penny. On top of it all, David is an interesting, knowledgeable and amusing companion who provided us with a stress-free, enjoyable day from start to finish. We recommend him highly"

"We thoroughly enjoyed our wonderful tour of the English countryside. We found David on the internet and he custom designed a budget-friendly tour that perfectly met the needs of our family. David promptly picked us up and vehicle was clean and comfortable. Along the drive to Stonehenge, he provided us with historical and trivial information about the areas we were travelling through. David is extremely knowledgeable, he was very patient with our questions, and great with the kids too. The tour was the highlight of our trip to London"
