Private Tour of West Cornwall Highly Varied Full Day Experience

Run by passionate Cornish local tour guides, this experience weaves a magical combination of iconic Cornish landmarks, majestic and expansive beaches and idyllic fishing villages and harbours. But that's not the whole story... We are driven by wanting to share with visitors some of the harder to access and 'off the beaten path' locations that make Cornwall so unique. Neolithic stone circles and underground burial chambers, medieval churches that contain ancient wooden carvings within, engine houses signifying tin mines underneath - and parts of the 'hidden Cornwall' that many locals never get to see... Cornwall’s history and culture examined in a lively way with SO much to see and learn! PLUS : very many points of interest en route – some visible from vehicle, others just moments from the car. There is so much to take in on this circular Cornwall tour. An absorbing tour of West Cornwall that gives a vibrant understanding of this part of the world in a relatively short space of time.
