We offer an exciting range of award-winning & unique guided sightseeing day tours around Dorset and the New Forest, all from the comfort of our fantastic new(-ish!) ‘70’s-style Volkswagen camper van. You’ll be given a warm welcome on board, and the most exclusive & informative, friendly & fun tour is assured!
Leave the car behind and let us do the driving while you sit back, relax and enjoy the sights and scenery and hear stories of local history and heroes, characters, culture and wildlife. The VW comfortably seats 7 passengers, making our trips really personal and fun. It also means we can fit anywhere a car can go, opening up places that even larger minibuses just cannot go! And there’ll be refreshments along the way, plus opportunities to sample local hospitality.
