Overview
Leave the car behind and come explore some of the most beautiful scenery in the UK with Chris in his vintage taxi.
It's not just pretty; it's an incredibly old landscape, and its history goes back beyond the dawn of civilization.
We don't just concentrate on ancient history; we discover what part of North Cornwall plays in today's modern world and in the security of the nation.
We visit forgotten castles; you'll hear of legends and heroes; you'll marvel at awe-inspiring scenery, and you'll learn to dowse.

Tintagel CastleThought to be the home of the legendary King Arthur it was certainly the home of the royalty of Dumnonia. Entry is not included in the tour but you are welcome to visit.

Davidstow Airfield & Cornwall At War MuseumAn absolutely fascinating place to visit, this airfield saw action in WW2 and was used as a formula one racing circuit post war. The Cornwall at War Museum is also well worth a visit. The airfield is free to visit, but entry to the museum is not included.
