Driver / Guide

Let us take the trouble out of travelling on the ˜wrong” side of the road!

For visitors who may not want to drive themselves, or who may want to see more (and relax more!) than if they had to concentrate on driving. A Driver/Guide will also save your partner from having to navigate! This service is available for all, or part of your trip, and you will be in good hands with an expert driver who will be both friendly and unobtrusive.

Often I will drive you myself, but if I cannot then you will be in equally good hands with one of my colleagues. They are just as enthusiastic and knowledgeable, and are fully experienced in both driving and guiding throughout Britain and Ireland. I am sure you will find them delightful travelling companions.

The vehicles we use are both comfortable and roomy. Thus, whether your party consists of just one person, or a couple, or three or four, there will be plenty of room for both passengers and luggage.

Your trip will not be rushed, and you will have as much time as you wish to linger along the way and enjoy the countryside. There will be no need to stick to a set schedule if you don’t want to - we’re flexible - and we can stop or detour to suit any whim.

You may be a little concerned about committing yourself to travelling with someone you have never met before. Well, that’s understandable. I can only assure you that your Driver/Guide will be as unobtrusive or as companionable as you wish him to be. In the evenings, for example, he will leave you wherever you may be staying and go off to his own accommodation; usually at a spot not too far away. This is not so much that you will be fed up with the sight of him at the end of the day, but to give him time to recheck and plan for the next day.

Let us introduce you to the little known villages and hamlets that are so much part of the charms of these islands. Long winding country lanes, rustic pubs, unique and out of the way ancient buildings, charming hotels and restaurants; all of these are our forte.

Why not take a look at some of the comments we have had over the past many years? Hopefully they will put your mind at ease about the thought of driving with a ˜stranger”.

So; whether your trip might be for two or three days, or two or three weeks, do please contact me beforehand. Between us I am sure we can put together one of your most memorable visits to Britain or Ireland.
