Description

Get a taste of Yorkshire on a full-day minibus tour from Chester. Explore the county's history and cuisine, admire feats of Victorian engineering, and see the picturesque Hardraw Force waterfall. After a partially-narrated 2-hour journey, we arrive at Hardraw Force, the UK's highest single-drop waterfall, which is over 100 feet tall. Enjoy the splash pool and the breathtaking natural “amphitheater”.

Next, visit the pretty village of Hawes, a honeypot boasting shops, cafes, pubs, and locals sipping John Smith's while munching a Yorkshire pudding.

A stop at the must-visit Wensleydale Creamery follows. Sample some of its famous cheeses, made originally by Cistercian monks.

See the impressive Ribblehead Viaduct, a masterpiece of 19th-century engineering, and take a stroll to get a closer look at its 1.5 million bricks.

From there, head to the stunning limestone feature of Malham Cove, formed by melt-water from glaciers over 12,000 years ago before we arrive in Haworth to discover the stories of the Bronte sisters, Anne, Charlotte, and Emily.
