“First timer booking a non cruise tour, was obviously nervous about pick up, drop off, I needn’t have been. Daniel explains everything well and his first priority is getting back to the ship on time. Our tour felt relaxed with lots of information on the Jurassic coast (which i knew nothing about before!).”
