About This Tour
Come exploring West Cornwall with Glenys and Chris. Glenys is a thirty year old British taxi and Chris is your friendly driver and guide. Come with us to explore ancient churches (One of which is abandoned.), a stone circle where Chris will teach you to dowse for its mysteries, an abandoned bronze age village, a prehistoric fogou and pretty seaside towns. We'll visit some awesome viewpoints, look at fascinating mining heritage and discover some hidden gems. You'll hear stories and songs, a part of Cornwall's rich culture which is still thriving today. Is there something you particularly want to see that's not on the tour? No Problem, we can add it in. The tours are private, you won't have to share Glenys with anyone and you can go at your own pace. There's plenty of time for souvenir and ice cream shopping! It's your holiday, your tour, your pace, your choice.
