Top Tor Trip - A wonderful trip to Glastonbury which allowed us to explore the Abbey and enjoy breathtaking views from the Tor. Daniel our guide was extremely knowledgeable and I would really recommend any of his trips. He loves what he does and provides an excellent service.

Best Choice! - Daniel is a wealth of knowledge. He is a warm, friendly person. We booked with him for Glastonbury on a Tuesday afternoon and Stonehenge on the following morning. He was very considerate of our status as Super Adults. He allowed us to go at our pace, we never felt rushed. Even when we climbed to the top of the Tor and I had to stop and rest a few times. We felt like we were with a friend not just a tour guide.

Knowledgeable, pleasant guide made a great tour! - Daniel is an excellent guide. He was prompt. He took time to learn what things might interest us (since Glastonbury has so much), then offered a pleasant and informative tour. He is knowledgeable and kind. We had a wonderful afternoon with him!

Excellent half day Glastonbury tour with historic insight - My mom and I took the half day Glastonbury Tour in August 2023. Daniel was an excellent host, great tour guide and driver. He was able to tailor the trip based on what we were looking to see and accommodate our requests. We had a lovely day checking out the sights and during the drive around the area. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to hit some historic and mythical sights in a short amount of time.

Wonderful Tour to Glastonbury - Daniel is a very friendly and well organized tour guide. He knows the area very well and even gave us advice on other sights and activities to do in Bath. During the tour he would give us enough time to take pictures and would give more in depth information on topics we were interested in. He also gives fast and good replies to inquiries on his website. I also recommend going to his website to discuss pick up and drop off areas since he's pretty flexible when it comes to that.

Glastonbury sacred sights tour. - The Glastonbury Tour with Daniel was excellent. His knowledge of the area, including the flora, fauna, and community, along with history and mythology, made the tour magical and educational. Daniel is a seeker who understands that history is fascinating and incomplete. As a natural storyteller, he sparks the imagination and carefully points out the clues to deeper knowledge while carefully navigating existing beliefs to give everyone space to find their personal truth. In addition to the exploration of the ruins of the abbey, Daniel included a walk up to the Tor preceded by the best part, which was the red and white springs, a magical place where the followers of earth based mysticism come for sacred ancient rituals. Thank you for making this a very special day.
