  Trip advisor 2015 - 2019 Dorset Tourism Silver Award 2016 Trip Advisor Logo

Durdle Door, Corfe Castle, Lulworth Cove or the Jurassic Coast caught your eye? How about beautiful Sherborne Abbey, the Hardy Monument or Cerne Giant near Dorchester? Or Brockenhurst in the New Forest? Or maybe you’d like to visit some Purbeck pubs, or have a VW camper wedding or VW camper Prom?! Well these are just some of the fantastic places that you can explore and activities you can do with Dorset Day Trips!! 

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 ‘70’s-style Volkswagen camper van. You’ll be given a warm welcome on board and a small complimentary goodie bag full of good (and mainly local) stuff!

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.

Our aim is to make sure all our guests have a fantastic, fun day out in Dorset! So please browse our tour summary, and book up to have a great time!


COVID-19: Rest assured that for everyone’s safety and peace-of-mind, we’ve maintained measures that follow government & industry covid-19 guidelines regarding social distancing, cleaning, etc.
