We've just been on the half day Lancashire tour with Katie. It's been a wonderful day out. Just four of us on this tour, which was nice because you get a good chance to chat both with Katie and with fellow foodies. Our tour, which can be adapted to suit, started from Northcote in the Ribble Valley and took in fantastic food and drink venues in the area, Inglewhite, Goosnargh, Great Eccleston and Garstang. The cheese, cakes, gin, lunch, more cheese and ice cream were all fantastic. Thoroughly recommend this tour. Very impressed. We will sign up for the Cumbria one too. Katie is a very friendly and informative host. We wish her the best and hope this becomes a truly successful venture. There is a plethora of wonderful small artisanal food and drink businesses in Lancashire and it's great to see that they are being championed by Bowland and Bay tours.

What a beautiful part of England to explore. We didn't know what to expect as we received this as a gift. Katie took us on a very interesting tour exploring home made gin and some great venues eating locally sourced food. Can highly recommend this.
