"My wife and I have been travelling to England for many years and we have travelled almost exclusively with Brook Tours. David has guided us on tours and facilitated our arrivals and departures from airports since he took the business over from his father. He is always punctual, courteous and very safe in his operation of his vehicles. He has shown us the many treasures of the Lake District and has taken us on hikes and to country homes and castles and wonderful local restaurants. He is extremely knowledgeable and accommodating and will always do his best to make your trip the best. During all these years of travel I have never had an unpleasant experience with David Brook. It is without any reservation whatsoever that I highly recomend David Brook for all of your touring and general transportation needs while visiting one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Enjoy the Lake District at your own pace."
