We visited England from the US for the first time this spring break. The highlight of our time in Dorset was the 1/2 day Jurassic Safari Tour with Gary. The scenery was breathtaking and Gary was a wonderful tour guide. He is so knowledgable and interesting. He took us to places that you could never get to on your own.... More

I am an expat living in Silver Spring, Maryland. Originally from Bridport. I booked this trip for my American wife and her mom and dad who wanted to see something of where I come from. The weather on the day was to say the least on the bad side of horrible but it didn't matter at all. Gary was extremely... More

What better way to spend a sunny winter morning than being driven to some of the most beautiful places in Dorset, along tracks which you wouldn't normally be able (or know) to get down, with a guide born and bred in the area. Gary provided funny and educational stories on the local area and an excellent eye for spotting deer.... More

On a cold, windy and foggy day we had the most marvellous safari around the Isle of Purbeck! Gary knows so much about the area, animals, birds etc and made it so interesting. The places we visited were beautiful. The vehicle was spotless and the coffee and cake delicious. This trip is a must any time of the year and... More

We went on the Jurassic Safari (Hardy tour) this week as part of our holiday to Weymouth. This was our first holiday for years and we wanted one or two special things to do. This did not disappoint. After using Trip Advisor this seemed the only thing worth doing (partly as other attractions had been seen years ago) and we... More

From the moment we were picked up at the Wareham Car Park, we knew we were in very capable hands. There was an elderly lady and her daughter and my wife and I. Gary is so passionate about the landscape, agriculture, environment and the people. He has an amazing amount of facts and figures in his head. We saw things... More

My wife & daughter booked this for me as a treat for my 65th birthday....I'm so glad they did, I thoroughly enjoyed it. They chose the Purbeck trip, which was ideal as I am not so familiar with this area. Weather was excellent with clear visibility, enabling us to have some wonderful views...From Heaven's Gate, we could see Portland Bill... More

We can see why this remains a top attraction locally, afrer spending a superb afrternoon in the company of Gary, on a fantastic tour of the Dorset countryside. From the warm welcome at Carol and Gary's home, the brill tea & cake, getting wet in the river, to the huge amount of history learnt; there was something for everyone. Whether... More
