Overview

  • Discover Yorkshire with Greg – Your Personal Guide to the Heart of the Moors. A truly personal, small-group tour of Nth Yorkshire. With no more than 7 guests, Greg offers a relaxed, friendly experience that you won’t find with larger tour operators. Greg has lived in most of the places we visit and brings the region's history and culture to life with great stories and insider knowledge. The highlight of the day is a scenic heritage steam train ride from Goathland village—famous as Aidensfield in TV's Heartbeat and Hogsmeade Station in Harry Potter. Your day will be filled with stunning landscapes, charming villages like Helmsley and Hutton-Le-Hole and of course, the breathtaking Whitby where you will enjoy some free time in this amazing coastal town. Whether you're taking photos of the moors, or simply chatting with Greg about local life, you'll feel like part of the Yorkshire family. A tour that’s as much about the journey as it is about the destination – Read our guests reviews!
