Tours

“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.” Marcel Proust

Within metres of our little workshop in Cullercoats we have over 500 years of visible history and heritage, unique geology and stunning natural landscapes home to a variety of wildlife. Below is a list of the guided tours that we offer. Whether you choose to travel by bike or kayak, you will see some amazing sights and we'll make sure you get to see the bits that only the locals know about! All of our prices include equipment rental.

Guides

All of our tours are guided by local, experienced guides who have a rich knowledge of the local area.

What if I have my own equipment?

No problem! Just bring it along and we will deduct the cost of equipment rental from the price of the tour. Just make sure it is up to the job because our bikes and kayaks are really fast and cool.
