Top Newquay Car Tours

Run by passionate Cornish local tour guides, this experience weaves a magical combination of iconic Cornish landmarks, majestic and expansive beaches and idyllic fishing villages and harbours. But that's not the whole story... We are driven by wanting to share with visitors some of the harder to access and 'off the beaten path' locations that make Cornwall so unique. Neolithic stone circles and underground burial chambers, medieval churches that contain ancient wooden carvings within, engine houses signifying tin mines underneath - and parts of the 'hidden Cornwall' that many locals never get to see... Cornwall’s history and culture examined in a lively way with SO much to see and learn! PLUS : very many points of interest en route – some visible from vehicle, others just moments from the car. There is so much to take in on this circular Cornwall tour. An absorbing tour of West Cornwall that gives a vibrant understanding of this part of the world in a relatively short space of time.

West Cornwall has more history per mile than almost anywhere else in Britain. On this self-guided audio driving tour, you’ll trace the deep roots of Kernow, a Celtic kingdom with its own language, legends, and hard-won identity. You’ll make your way through coastal villages, prehistoric monuments, and the ruins of an industry that once powered the world. The tour starts at Penzance – a working port that gave the world both a famous opera and Humphry Davy, the scientist who discovered laughing gas and its possible use as an anaesthetic. You’ll drive through Poldark country at Porthgwarra Cove and arrive at Land’s End, where legend says a drowned kingdom called Lyonesse once stretched toward the Isles of Scilly. The tour ends at Lanyon Quoit, a Neolithic chambered tomb on the open West Penwith moorland, with wide views across the peninsula.
