 A tour to the UK cannot be complete without Lake District tours. It is not only is the largest National park in England, it is also one of the most eye-catching sites globally. There are many interesting things you can do and beautiful sites to see. You can never just ignore the water because it is very welcoming.

There are many games you can play and joints to grab a satisfying meal and a drink to wet your dry throat. Well, this is what you must never miss doing during guided tours of the Lake District

1. Play On The Water: One would think that it is referred to as the Lake District since there are numerous lakes but you will be surprised to learn that there is only one official lake - Bassenthwaite Lake, others are just ‘waters’. However, in spite of the geographic technicalities, the area has over 5669 hectares of land covered with water which clearly means that you will have a perfect opportunity for swimming. Lake District tours offer a variety of thrilling water sports such as windsurfing, sailing and canoeing. Furthermore, you can try something different.

2. A Walk in the Park: For mountain climbers and travelers, what would be more adventurous than hiking Scafell Pike, Lake District’s highest mountain which is 3210 feet (978 metres). With the appropriate footwear get yourself ready for the mountain challenge.

However, board game is one of the most enjoyable activities you will enjoy during the tour. In addition, it is you to choose on what delight your family- be it playing board games or reading.
