A very interesting and rewarding tour with a superb guide, Paul who told us about the central Lake districts with enthusiasm and in appropriate doses. We were very pleased to have breaks from time to time as we got to discover cozy villages and beautiful landscapes on our own. Paul was also a good.driver. We already long to return and then walk “for real”!
