Wonderful Experience

Ann_S, Jun 2023
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience today on the All Creatures Great and Small Tour. We found Chris to be a knowledgeable guide and an excellent driver! We never felt rushed and the stops along the way were perfectly timed. It was a lovely day and we would highly recommend this tour for those who wish to experience the breathtaking beauty of the Yorkshire Dales.

A Little Bit of Heaven

William_M, May 2023
The overall knowledge of our driver, Howard. for all things All Creatures Great and Small and also the overall Yorkshire Dales was astonishing. As the witching hour of 5.00 p.m. was approaching he was eager to continue showing us places of interest and continued to do so until after 6:00 p.m. Highly recommended.

One of a kind Experience!

Ramona_H, Mar 2022
This trip was a very special event for my family. My husband and daughter are veterinarians and this experience was a dream come true. We have loved the books, the two series and even CAT ABOUT TOWN for children in particular!

Response from Host, May 2022

Thank you for the 5* review of our Private 'All Creatures Great and Small' Herriot Yorkshire Dales Tour. We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour so much. I agree 'Cat about Town' was a childhood favourite of mine along with 'Bonny's Big Day' and 'Moses the Kitten'. We look forward to seeing you soon, bobholidays.com

Worthwhile booking and will definitely recommend
