5Great day out across the Yorkshire dales
We were collected from York on sat 11 July - great day lots of stops guide was knowledgable and informative with lots of historical detail, drove with care offering lots of info
5Fantastic Tour Experience – Even Better Than Expected
I had a brilliant time on the Yorkshire Dales tour yesterday with Dave driving the bus. Despite being the only person on the tour who wasn’t there because of All Creatures Great and Small, I thoroughly enjoyed the whole trip and the beautiful scenery. A huge thank you to Dave and the rest of the passengers for their kindness and assistance throughout the day. As someone who is partially sighted and currently managing a knee injury, I really appreciated the support and consideration shown to me. The experience was so enjoyable that I’ve now gone back to start watching All Creatures Great and Small as well! Thanks again for such a lovely day out — highly recommended.
3Tour not as advertised - switched once on board.
This was a nice tour if we had wanted to tour the Yorkshire Dales (a different tour offered by Mountain Goat) but we had booked and were expecting the James Herriot All Creatures Great and Small tour. After the tour bus had set off, we were informed that, due to road works, our itinerary had changed. This was very disappointing, and we should have been told before we boarded the bus, that morning or the day before. I really wish I had asked to be allowed off. The driver was very nice and did his best to make this an enjoyable day, but James Herriot was mentioned only once in 9 hours. We were driven across the famous puddle which appears in the tv series, but were given no warning that it was coming up and had passed it before I could get my camera. This one minute constituted the entire ACGAS content. Bolton castle (which is a ruin) was on the original Itinary. The only information received about the ruin was that Mary Queen of Scots had unsuccessfully tried to escape. No more information was forthcoming. When I googled James Herriot information that evening, I found out that both the author and the fictional character had proposed to their wives there. Not a mention was made of this. I did enjoy the Wallace and Grommet exhibit. We were then driven around for hours on the Yorkshire Dales. In my opinion, instead of this massive waste of time we could have been driven to the township which was filmed as the stand in for Darrowby in the TV series. We could also have found more opportunities to eat in a larger town. I gave this tour three stars because our driver was lovely and did his best to make this an enjoyable day, but I give Mountain Goat a zero as they completely wasted a day of my holiday on a tour I didn’t want and was not given the opportunity to decline. Even if the roadworks made the original itinerary redundant, there must have been other, much more relevant places to tour. This was a disappointing day.
5A grand Day Out
This was a really special day with Mark driving us through the Yorkshire Dales.9am and we left the lakes and headed for the dales.Mark knew every nook and cranny of the dales and proceeded to present our day with information and humour.We visited villages,some with markets and some with places where tv filming had gone ahead from All Creatures Great and Small.We saw viaducts including Ribblehead,and because of road closures,we visited alternate places of interest.Eventually we visited he Wensleydale Creamery and took advantage of the cheese tasting,leading to purchases such as butter ,cheeses,and chocolate.We visited Bolton Castle for lunch.Eventually,the day ended at 5.15 pm back at Windermere.Thanks Mark.
5Go take a tour of the Dales with Barry!
If you get a chance to take this tour, do it and go with Barry! He’s a fantastic tour guide—full of knowledge, charisma, and great tips and tricks for getting the most out of your tour. We learned a ton about the history, the landscape, wild life, All Creatures fun facts and more.
5A fantastic tour with a knowledgeable guide
We ended up being the only two people on the tour but Derek our driver and guide gave a fantastic service. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about everywhere he showed us and although road closures often came along he always had an alternative route. A highly enjoyable day in the Yorkshire Dales.

About Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough is a Teesside town on the River Tees, built on iron and steel, with a famous transporter bridge and the North York Moors close behind.
Middlesbrough lies on the south bank of the River Tees in north-east England, historically in Yorkshire. It grew from a farm into a major ironworking town in the nineteenth century after ironstone was found in the Cleveland Hills, and its bridge-building firms worked on the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Tyne Bridge.
