Well worth the trip. - The experience was memorable thanks to the tour guide (Amanda) who clearly new her stuff and the driver of the coach (Grant) who drove the coach with professionalism in some very tight situations. Covered quite a large area in Northumberland on our full day tour.

Enjoyable afternoon. - We had a great afternoon doing the Vera tour around Newcastle. It was great hearing about the filming of the series and the different landmarks in Newcastle. Our guide was great, she was really happy to engage in conversation with us.

If you love the TV Show VERA, you should join this tour if you have a chance. It's worth the trip. - I joined the half-day Vera tour TV locations. Really nice experience. The tourguide Josh was very good, he knows his stuff and tells lots of background stories about the TV show Vera and the set up is pleasant; they show you short video clips from the TV series and then stop at the specific spot where certain episodes are filmed. If you are a fan of the TV show Vera, I would highly recommend this tour. Als the driver was experienced and the bus was very comfortable. Coming from The Netherlands, especially for this tour, says it all I think. And it was worth the trip!

Vera tours are the best! - Wonderful half day tour with Amanda and full day tour with Fran! Visiting locations where Vera scenes were filmed after seeing video clips of the Vera episode were great! And we enjoyed all the local information that they both shared along the way! We would encourage all Vera fans to go on both tours! A big shoutout to the best coach driver, Jake, whose driving was safe and fantastic!

Brilliant trip - Brilliant trip despite the rain. Josh was a very informative guide and kept us interested. Adam was a brilliant driver, goodness knows how he got the bus around some of the corners. Scenery was beautiful on the coastal part of the tour. Playing clips of Vera on the bus TV was a great idea and gave context to the locations. Thoroughly recommend this trip for any Vera fan, thank you!

Around town and beyond… - Perfect half day tour to see sights in Newcastle and along the coast. Josh was our guide who kept the tour lively and Adam was our driver who always remained steady on the wheel. Hop along to different “Vera” filming locations with either a quick snack (or walk) in Whitley Bay. Weather was up and down on our tour but a good introduction to the Newcastle/Northumberland area.

Nice enough - It was alright. A few clips from five or so episodes on the bus and commentary that lacked detail. Nice enough, but not amazing. The coach driver was very accommodating.
