Day Tours and Excursions
We operate a comprehensive range of day excursions throughout Cornwall to local towns, beauty spots, tourist attractions, gardens, theatres and shopping centres.
Our schedules vary with the seasons, but amongst our favourite destinations are:
The Eden Project
Cornwall's unique visitor attraction. More than just a green theme park, its aim is to reconnect people with their environment, both locally and globally. Interesting, informative and fun, its huge biomes have become a 'must see' for all visitors to this beautiful County.
Lost Gardens of Heligan
Discover the internationally acclaimed and award winning 'Lost Gardens', over 100 acres of superb pleasure grounds, a tropical 'jungle', a complex of walled gardens and a kitchen garden - all returning to their former glory on the site of the largest garden restoration in Europe. Recent innovations include a hide and wildlife project.
Minack Theatre
The world famous open air theatre built in the cliffs at Porthcurno Performances, which change weekly, run from mid May to early September and we operate services every Tuesday and Thursday evening, plus Friday matinee, using small vehicles which enable us to transfer passengers up the cliff to the Theatre.
Isles of Scilly
Visit the sub-tropical 'fortunate isles' by boat from Penzance. We operate a free courtesy coach from St Ives to Penzance Quay for passengers booking with us on Scillonian III.
Other popular tours include the cathedral city and major shopping centre of Truro, the ancient seaport of Falmouth, with its castle, National Maritime Museum and beaches, Tintagel, home of King Arthur and nearby Boscastle now most famous for its recent floods but still a charming harbour and village, the river port and sailing centre of Fowey, the picturesque fishing ports of Mevagissey, Polperro, Looe, Newlyn and Mousehole and The Lizard, the most southerly point in Britain and one of the most scenic areas of Cornwall with its unspoilt beauty, magnificent cliffs and coves.
Whilst we like to show off our Duchy to visitors, we don't forget the locals, and run a year round programme of day excursions to various shopping centres, local events and theatres - Just give us a call for a copy of our current programme.
