Why private, why direct
The relaxed alternative to the train
No platform changes with the luggage, no wasted day — a private car, scenic stops and a guide, straight to your York hotel.
“Six adults from California, door to door via Cambridge. We arrived relaxed instead of wrecked — the journey became part of the trip.”
“Travelling with three generations, having the whole vehicle to ourselves made the day. The children loved it.”
Good to know
Your questions, answered
For groups and families, often yes: door to door, luggage handled, scenic stops and no changes — and the journey becomes part of the trip rather than a gap in it.
As a transfer tour via Cambridge it's a full, unhurried day with stops — not a dash. We pace it around your group.
Yes — we collect door to door from a London hotel or airport. Tell us your pickup point when you enquire.
Per group. One price covers your whole party of up to seven — so £985 across four guests is about £246 each for a private full day, with hotel pickup and a dedicated driver-guide.
Up to seven guests travel in the Mercedes-Benz V-Class. The price is the same whether there are two of you or seven.
Door-to-door from your York hotel or the railway station, at a time that suits you — usually around 9am. Pickup outside York can often be arranged; just tell us where you're staying when you enquire.
