Walk Port Isaac’s Doc Martin filming sites with a local guide, hear behind-the-scenes stories, and discover Cornwall’s historic seaside village.
“Mike was an enthusiastic guide. He had many stories to tell as he had been a Supporting Actor for many years on set of Doc Martin. So had genuine insite the the happenings involved. Great presentation. We visited so many sites which were familiar from watching this fantastic British series Well worth visiting Port Isaac especially for us travelling Australians”
Explore Bodmin Jail’s grim cells, Victorian hanging pit, and chilling Dark Walk in Cornwall, with history, 4D effects, and practical visit tips.
“We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Bodmin jail (even my 15 year old son had a great time, and he is very hard to please 😆) we would say it was better than the dungeons and a fraction of the price. The staff were very friendly, the gift shop wasn’t a rip off and of course the attraction its self was entertaining and interesting. If we are ever in Devon again we will definitely be returning.”
Review of Padstow’s two-hour RIB sealife safari, with dolphins, seals, puffins, seabirds, coastal views, practical tips, and honest advice.
“We were lucky and saw much wildlife— dolphins, tuna gulls shags cormorants, to name but a few. The guide’s information was excellent, the skipper was also very good at controlling his boat and guiding it to as many places he could so passengers were able to see and appreciate the wildlife and scenery This trip is a must if you want to do something different and is worth every penny Thank you”
Ride from Penzance to Land’s End on a wildlife-led RIB tour with cliffs, dolphins, seals, tuna, and Cornish coastal views.
“Guides were informative, entertaining, and knowledgeable. A fascinating combination of wildlife, landscape and history. Plus it was really fun to sit on the "jockey" seats and fly through the waves.”
Ride Cornwall’s open-top RIB from Padstow to spot grey seals, dolphins, and seabirds with a lively local guide.
“The boat safari trip was excellent from start to finish. At the kiosk we were welcomed by a very friendly member of the team, and instructed how to don our lifejackets. We were offered waterproofs...which effectively kept the wind and the sea spray off! Emma and George ensured we got safely aboard and we were given a safety briefing. The trip was great fun, and although the seals were shy, we saw seabirds working the waters. As George headed further along the coast we were treated to a pod of dolphins playing alongside. Emma gave us loads of info about seals, shags, cormorants and dolphins. All in all we had…”
Take a private two-hour speedboat tour from Mylor Harbour to Cornwall's creeks, castles, coves, and coastline with local skipper Giles.
“The boat trip was great and Giles was really helpful throughout! I would recommend to anyone.”
Review of Cornwall’s 2.5-hour boat trip from Penzance to Hayle, with coastal views, wildlife, history, practical tips, and honest drawbacks.
“Skipper Jack and guide Zack were friendly, thoughtful, helpful and informative. We loved the interaction and the flexibility of the experience with care taken to ensure everyone was having a good time. Luckily we happened upon a pod of at least 30 dolphins. Jack allowed plenty of time to get the most out of the opportunity. The trip provides a wonderful perspective of the Cornish coast. Booking was easy and all the information we needed was provided along with the confirmation. We appreciated the waterproof clothing provided but would recommend sunglasses for the spray and sunscreen even if it’s not a sunny day. Would thoroughly recommend but anyone who is…”
