I enjoyed tours of the Dales and Moors, both tour leaders/drivers were good. The scenery and vegetation were very distinctive and I particularly liked Whitby Abbey and the bird show at Bolton Castle. Not knowing anything about All Creatures Great and Small or Heartland didn't detract from my enjoyment of the Dales tour.

We did the North Moors and Whitby Tour and it was lovely. Well-paced, beautiful locations, and Ben A., our guide, was splendid. He shared interesting historical information and funny anecdotes with us making the whole experience very memorable. Plus he showed all us all the scenic locations and shared excellent tips! I’d totally ask for him as a guide in our next tour!

What a fabulous day on the North York Moors and Whitby Tour. Our guide John had wonderful stories of the history and culture of Yorkshire all day, and he took us down tiny country lanes to out-of-the-way spots where others do not tread. Byland Abbey (with no one there but our little group) and the Anglo-Saxon church built in 1050 were highlights. I would definitely book another tour with Mountain Goat.

John was an amazing tour guide for our day trip to explore the Yorkshire Dales during the All Creatures Great and Small tour. He provided a lot of interesting and entertaining information throughout the day. This was definitely among the best tours I have ever taken. All of the stops were interesting. So glad we went on this tour with John!

we had a lovely day. our tour guide John was the best!! He made the ride not only safe but super enjoyable! He had a great story to tell from every spot we passed by. And gave us enough time to enjoy the stops, which were at least 4. Really couldn't have asked for a different tour guide, it's easy to say that he truly enjoyed his job. All the spots we went to are just stunning. And felt our day was worth it. I would totally recommend it!!! and would totally do it again if we can !
