Book Your Cornwall Tour Now

Cornwall, I am missing you already! I've wanted to see the beauty of Cornwall for myself since seeing Doc Martin. It was wonderful. David was a wonderful guide and entertaining too. I laughed a lot, I walked a lot, really a lot, saw amazing sites and learned much about all of Cornwall. I'd love to go back again sometime.

I'd do it again! I'd do it again!! Just returned home from Daceys last tour of the 2024 season and I can't say enough good things about it. I've been on many guided group tours but this one was head and shoulders above the others. David is an excellent guide and knowledgeable about the inside details of Cornwall. He managed to bring a group of strangers together to become friends, without being too intense or invasive, and we even began to look forward to his bad jokes! David and Steven and Ed (the bus drivers) typified the humour, the friendliness and down to earth attitude of the Cornish people. I had wanted to do this tour for a long time, and Daceys Tours did not disappoint.

What a memorable trip What a memorable trip! I have two pieces of advice for my fellow travelers: 1) Put Cornwall near the top of your bucket list! The beauty of the coast and countryside made it reasonable to believe that you were in Camelot. Indeed, we slept at the Camelot Hotel, so believe what you will. The history (so ancient), the culture (food, drink, and music), and the genuine, kind, warm, and proud-to-be Cornish people we met all contributed to the experience. Be prepared for narrow roads and walking paths in a quaint, slumbering part of the UK. 2) Rely on Daceys Cornish Tours to make your visit. Admittedly, it’s the only Cornish tour that I have been on, but it is difficult to imagine a better one. It was selected because it checked my boxes: small group, small vehicle, good reviews. Our guide, David, was very knowledgeable and anecdotal. He’s certainly a people-person who interacted well with all in our group. He was organized, pleasant, considerate, and a perfectly wonderful guy to share a beer with. His humor made the travel time so enjoyable. The drivers were knowledgeable and funny, as well. I wholeheartedly recommend Daceys Cornish Tours.

Beautiful, ancient world of Cornwall Just returned from a wonderful week of traveling the beautiful, ancient world of Cornwall, UK with David Warner, tour guide extraordinaire / owner of Dacey’s Cornish Tours. My interest in this area was piqued by The Doc Martin and Poldark series and I was lucky to find this small group tour. Each day was packed with the opportunity to discover and experience Cornwall’s culture, history, food, landscape and people while also getting to know the other participants on this small bus tour. David, having lived and worked in Cornwall for many years, was a fabulous guide. His love of Cornwall was evident in his knowledge of all things Cornwall and his desire to have us leave Cornwall loving it as much as he does. We stayed at unique hotels within walking distance to shopping and dining and were transported around Cornwall by 2 excellent drivers who managed the windy roads with ease. There was a lot of walking with hills and stairs, but we were told in advance what to expect and allowed other options as we saw fit. All in all, it was a wonderful tour, and I would recommend it wholeheartedly for those interested in experiencing Cornwall.

Going back!!! I certainly agree with Williams commentary… I too was on the Sept 8 tour with David… Such a pleasant experience and so well managed. I plan to do the second itinerary in June… that’s how much I enjoyed David’s Small group introduction to the lovelies of Cornwall

A Joyful Cornwall Tour Touring Cornwall under the expert guidance of David Warner (Dacey) is a joyful experience. His friendliness and enthusiasm are contagious, making the fourteen or fewer people traveling with him, singly or as a couple, a congenial group. The several costal villages on the itinerary are picturesque, and the verdant countryside is peaceful and beautiful.Transportation in a large bus on the first day and on a smaller Mercedes bus thereafter is comfortable, and with local drivers and David’s interesting, witty, commentary, fun as well .The quality of the lodging is excellent, and you are never far from a good restaurant. If a performance is available, a night at the Minack Theatre is special. The amiable atmosphere throughout is genuine. Overall, a touring pleasure.

I am so glad I decided to tour Cornwall with Dacey's Cornish Tours. David was helpful and informative from the moment I made my first enquiry to the time we said farewell. As a solo traveler I appreciated small group size and the balance of group activities and time to explore the different sites at my own pace. David has a wealth of knowledge of Cornwall and I learned a lot. Highlights included walking sections of the Coast Path, exploring Port Isaac and seeing all things Doc Martin, and a beautiful evening at the Minack Theatre complete with a spectacular moonrise. I highly recommend Dacey's for anyone wanting to explore Cornwall.

The Wonder of Cornwall My husband and I are deeply grateful that we were able to join this tour. It was just a wonder every day at discovering the countryside and the villages of Cornwall. David took us to some great highlights and we loved the places that we were able to stay. Pushing ourselves every day was a good thing for us in order to see everything. I was able to take needed breaks to get ready for the next day. David and Ed made us laugh every day and we enjoyed learning about the culture and history of Cornwall.

A Great Way to See Cornwall I agree with all the reviews that the trip is comprehensive, personal, and extremely well done. David’s passion and knowledge of all things Cornish were inexhaustible. My only complaint was that I needed more free time and would have given up a couple little coastal villages for more time elsewhere. And David could slow down when leading walks!

Gotta love Cornwall! I went on Itinerary 1 in 2022 and Itinerary 2 in 2024, and both were wonderful. 2022 was my first time as a solo traveler, and 2024 was my second. It was so easy with Dacey's Cornish tours. The small group of 14 was perfect for me, I met some lovely people, and David is very good at what he does. The hotels were unique, quirky, and efficient, with some great food and friendly staff. David does it all with efficiency and a great sense of humor. I loved Cornwall before ever going there, and I will never forget that first stunning view of the ocean with sheep in the fields. One of my friends said my photos looked mystical. I recommend traveling with Dacey's Cornish Tours. You will be glad you did.

Having enjoyed tour 1 in 2018, we returned to Cornwall in 2024 for tour 2. We especially enjoyed the train travel, varied itineraries, and David's expertise. Our stay at the Bodmin Jail Hotel was a real highlight.

A Return Trip to Cornwall This is our second trip with Dacey's Cornish Tours and again it was a wonderful experience. The tour host is knowledgeable and passionate about Cornwall and we came away with an even greater appreciation for that part of the UK. The timing of each day was relaxed, but still busy. We appreciated the free time we had most days to explore on our own. One of the things Dacey's does well is to show you off the beaten path places that really reflect the Cornish experience. We highly recommend this tour.

Two different tours in Cornwall I have done two different tours in Cornwall with David and they have both been fantastic. I'm sure I have seen more of Cornwall than I ever would have travelling in some other way. David is an expert in all things Cornwall and a wonderful guide. For sure Daceys is the only way to experience Cornwall!

Dacey's Cornish Tours is an excellent way to discover Cornwall! David is an excellent tour guide; he gives fascinating information about each place visited and does so in an interesting, often humorous fashion. Each person is able to explore at his/her interest and ability level. I highly recommend Dacey's Cornish Tours if you are thinking about exploring beautiful Cornwall.
