Lake District Coach Tours - Travelling buy Bus is Fun

Posted by Linda Share on January 31st, 2016

Travelling to Lake District by bus from any city and then touring the area by the same means can be so exciting. While you have the option of travelling by your own car, your trip can be more stimulating if you buy Lake District Coach Tours.  There will be other travellers in your bus, and this is a clear sign that you will make new friends and enjoy your trip.

One thing you should know, however, is that companies that offer coach tours can be hired by any visitor. It does not matter whether you will come from Windermere, London, or Manchester by train or bus. These companies are ready to transport you in their coaches and show you around the district regardless of where you want to go first.  There is no need to worry that the bus you will hire might fail to turn up at the pick up point.

If you choose the best provider of Lake District tours, you will have no worries. The Lake District’s some of the most renowned tourist attractions include Rydal, Grasmere and Ambleside. So you might want to request your tour operator to take you there first. As you ride in their bus to these regions, you will be able to witness breathtaking views and might even be lucky to see the loveliest sunset you have ever seen in your life.

One thing that sets the Lake District apart is its hilly and mountainous landscape. The tarmac road meanders along the foot of the steep hills that are also great for tourists who are fit enough to do walking tours. In fact, if you buy your Lake District Coach Tours when the weather is favourable you are likely to have much better views in a bus than you would do in your car. 

Lake Windermere can be so beautiful during autumn due to the red coloured vegetation surrounding it, and the best part is that you can run around it just for fun. Alternatively, you can try a cruise across the lake from Bowness, for instance, to Ambleside. While in this area, make sure that you walk to Dove Cottage, a popularly visited Wordsworth home. 

It is about two miles from the bus stop along the Coffin Path. A small and dark cottage, Dove Cottage showcases a room that was decorated with wallpaper in the beginnings of 1800s and other exhibits. Closer too is Rydal Mount showing Elkingtons’ art exhibits and books.  Do not leave until you see the place which is thought to be the global capital of Gore-Tex.  It is called Keswick, an ever bustling, tourist-filled shopping area with a series of shops  and hotels.

Another place with unexpected surprises is the Armitt Museum, in Ambleside, where Kurt Schwitters’ works were preserved.  After viewing this museum, you could ask your coach driver or guide to take you to Coniston to enjoy a comfy cruise to Brantwood, Cumburia. This is an exquisite place where Ruskin lived last and it can be explored without the presence of your tour guide.  After a full day, or days, of enjoying Lake District tours in a bus, you will have a memorable trip and no regrets at all.
