A great day! - Had a brilliant time on the Vera tour with Fran and Jake. Fran gave us so much info, she didn’t stop for the whole day and all of it was interesting! I thoroughly recommend this tour - if you are a Vera fan or maybe you just want to see some lovely places on the coast!

Birthday treat - Bought on a friends recommendation as a surprise for my husband’s birthday. Had a fantastic guide and driver. Learned lots of background information about the programme and the stars of Vera. All while driving through our beautiful Northumberland countryside, who could ask for more?

Great day tour - Amanda was a great- friendly and helpful - lots of interesting information both about Vera and filming, as well as local area. It was a fabulous day. I would have liked more details about the tour from Viator before the day but can’t fault the experience I had at all. Bus driver ( whose name I forgot - sorry) was also brilliant. Thank you

Fantastic full day Vera tour! - We booked a full day private Vera tour and it exceeded all of our expectations! Our tour guide, Fran, was wonderful! She navigated very flooded countryside roads while providing both the history of the sites and lots of “behind the scenes” information about the filming of Vera locations in Northumberland. She is personable, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic! Having video clips of Vera episodes on a laptop that were filmed at the places we visited really added to the experience! It was a great day!

A fantastic day for Vera fans - I did the half day tour last year which my children bought me as a Christmas gift the previou year. I thoroughly enjoyed that day so last Christmas they purchased the full day. What an amazing day! Fran is an excellent guide, knowledgeable about Vera and the locations. Plenty of references to scenes in the series gorgeous scenery, renewed my acquaintance with Lindisfarne. Stopped off in Seahouses for fish and chips. If you love Vera this really is the tour for you, even saw Vera's land-rover driving off Lindisfarne as we were going towards it.I'll be booking for next year.

Stunning scenery. - Did this tour on a gorgeous day in Northeast England. Amanda was our guide and Adam was the driver. Had a few “technical difficulties” with the DVD player but Amanda persevered and was able provide plenty of information about the show, the locations, and shooting of the episodes in Northumberland. Gorgeous scenery throughout the tour that even if you’re not a fan of the “Vera” show, the locations alone would make this trip worthwhile. Adam gets extra kudos for handling a coach bus on these extremely busy country roads and dealing with bad drivers heading back to Newcastle.
