Amazing Adventure - This was definitely a memorable adventure. Our guide was so much fun and extremely informative. If we ever get back to Portland England we would sign up for another adventure with Dorset Safari. Thanks for the experience.

A do not miss tour of Dorset - The safari was the highlight of our trip! Mark was incredible and really tailored the trip to us. My daughter and I were traveling without husbands or children. The sights we saw were absolutely breathtakingly. It so difficult to put into worlds just how spectacular this tour was. He covers castles, towns, churches, beaches and vistas that on your own you’d never know were there or of any significance. I can’t say enough about this tour other than it was more than worth the price. Don’t delay in booking or you’ll miss out.

RUN! DO NOT WALK TO BOOK THIS EXPERIENCE !!! - Of all the excursions I’ve been on in my travels, this one is the best by FAR! Mark is an expert in his craft and will stop at nothing to make sure your experience is perfect. There is no amount of planning you can do to accomplish this experience yourself, so when I say book this, I mean NOW!! Thank you for all of the gorgeous, fairytale-like views, your effortless information, your creativity, your incredible company, and most importantly, for this once in a lifetime opportunity.

Great Dorset County Safari! - Despite the rainy weather, we had an amazing safari with Mark. He shared his knowledge of Dorset County and took us off road through the beautiful countryside. We encountered cows on our way to Corfe Castle, and stopped for lunch at Greyhound pub for delicious fish and chips and a pint!

OMG! We loved it! Our sons LOVED the castles, fossils and stories! - Corfe Castle was a superb surprise. It looked good in the photos, but to be driven all around the hills above the castle was amazing! This safari had the benefit of being able to drive on loads of muddy off road tracks and see some cool sights, but the comfort and luxury as well! Mark was a fantastic guide and driver. He picked us up from the Port and the next 8 hours flew by! We paid extra for two more hours to the safari, as we were in port a full day, so wanted to make the most of it. Fabulous tour. Easily 5/5 safari!

Absolutely gorgeous day out from Portland! - We knew England was a beautiful country, but we were astonished at the incredible scenery and sights we saw on Mark’s tour / safari. We asked Mark for a mixture of 4x4 on the hills (which he did well and it was super comfortable) and points of interest (we saw Corfe Castle, Lulworth Cove and many more interesting places). He literally allowed us to bespoke the safari, though we were glad he guided us along the way as we only knew a little bit about the area. If you’re booked on a Cruise coming into Portland (or even Southampton he said), Mark is the best guy to show you around. Absolutely gorgeous and brilliant tour!

Could not be any better!! - The whole experience was amazing. Mark was an awesome guide and made our excursion way better than we could have imagined! Dorset is beautiful. So glad we didn’t do the bus tour to Stonehenge. We stopped at two castles, two pretty little English villages, drove off road on top of the hills and even crossed a river in his Land Rover!

Awesome, fun time - Mark was awesome. We had a great day with him. He is very friendly and knowledgeable, even if he makesbit up (just kidding). Mark took us to several remote locations that we'd have never seen had we not chosen to go along with him. I would highly recommend booking this tour with Mark.

Best Cruise Excursion EVER!! - What an amazing day we had in Mark’s Land Rover! We were collected from Portland and driven to the beautiful Isle of Purbeck. The ruins of Corfe Castle were breathtaking and we loved Mark’s stories about the history. We stopped for lunch in this old British pub. Nice touch! But the best part of the day was up on the hills. How the truck managed to climb all over those hills, I’ll never know. Such incredible views. Mark was funny! And knowledgable. And Helen’s cake was something else. All the other 5* reviews I had read before booking, were absolutely accurate! Loved it!

Amazing tour! Loved the 4x4 journey around Dorset! - Amazing and WOW!! We all had such an incredible private tour with Mark. He was funny, interesting and engaging. He took us to some really cool places and it was without doubt the Best excursion we did on our cruise! Dorset is so beautiful and the Jeep / Land Rover was incredibly comfortable and exciting. Cannot recommend enough. A must do if you’re heading into Portland (Stonehenge)
