🙏 Here are some Google reviews from recent tours…

“The vintage bus ride is very entertaining, as it ambles up the hills giving ample opportunity for non-stop chats and laughter!! The itinerary provides the chance to experience and sample some of the produce of Surrey's finest artisans, and to learn about their very interesting journeys/stories. Driving through and stopping off at some of Surrey's pretty villages and scenic spots is wonderful ...... and it's fun seeing the delightful expressions on the faces of passers by, obviously wondering who we are, as the bus comes to a halt in the car park or road side!!” Julie

“Such an excellent day. It will stay in my memory as one of the highlights of the year!” Dilys

“Just absolutely wonderful, we had the best time!!! Excellent value for money and Linda is just such a sweetheart. We will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much for a really enjoyable, special day out, to places we’ve always meant to go but never been. If you’re unsure whether or not to book, this is your sign to just do it, you absolutely won’t regret it!!!!” Liv

“Linda is the perfect tour guide. Warm, approachable and knowledgeable - you will come away looking for another excuse to treat yourself or someone special! We were so impressed by the quality of all the produce we tried, the fantastic lunch and of course, the experience in the vintage bus. Highly recommend!” Catherine

“Linda, thanks for a great day out on Saturday - we all had a wonderful time. I have made some fantastic memories with my sisters. You were a great host / guide for the day and made us all feel very welcome, so thank you.” Debbie

An effortless 50 miler…well it was for me…I was following in the support van! 😆 🚐

I received an urgent call the other day from a London-based law firm…

They had planned to take their clients on a bike ride around the Surrey Hills…but at the very last minute the company who was going to take them cancelled 😲

I LOVE a challenge as those of you who know me will testify!

But this was definitely a race against time….forgive the pun! 🚴‍♀️

Relieved to report that we all’s well that ends well!!!

We worked out a route, recced it and had a guide, support van and first aider all sorted within 72 hours 😅

Happy clients…happy us!

Desperately seeking an acoustic guitar! 🎵

Do you have one you could lend me for an hour or so?

I have been running team building tours over the last few days and one of the team has just asked me if I could source one so he can surprise a couple of his colleagues….

They both have birthdays on Thursday and he wants to play a couple of songs for them 😊

He is an accomplished guitarist from Spain so he will certainly look after it!

Lovely feedback from Bainsey who came on one of our narrowboat trips 😊

He had never skippered a narrowboat before…just look at what a natural he is!!! 😲👨‍✈️

You can have a turn at being ‘Captain’ too👩‍✈️

You will be taught how to steer a wide beam, vintage narrowboat and will learn how to pass through locks…

By the end of the tour you will be an accomplished narrowboat captain and rope operator…well that’s the aim anyway 😆

You will…

🌲 Explore a scenic stretch of the River Thames
🌊 Try your hand at skippering a narrowboat and learn how to pass through locks
🥂Enjoy a welcome glass of champagne with strawberries
🦢Spot native wildlife such as herons, swans, kingfishers, woodpeckers and dragonflies

🏰 Sail past and admire Hampton Court Palace

But don’t just take my word for it…here are some reviews from recent tours 😊

“We had a great time…I have never laughed so much in my life! Lovely champagne…delicious food and great company! The Surrey Hills Tour Company river cruise is truly a great experience and fantastic way to see the Thames from a different perspective!” Dani

“What a fantastic day out!!! We had strawberries & champagne and so many laughs. Then a magnicient lunch in a riverside restaurant. All aboard! Everyone took turns in driving the boats, navigating through the locks as we passed all the houses that one can only dream of!!! This must be done again for sure and Linda was the perfect Hostess, her friendliness and organisation was wonderful.” Peter

“I had a wonderful time on the River Thames boat tour yesterday! It was very relaxing, so much to see and lovely meeting so many nice people. We all had such a laugh! Lunch at the river pub was just delicious! Linda did a really great job in making us all welcome from the moment we stepped on board, and greeted us with champagne and strawberries, and rounded it all off with coffee/ tea and cake. Highly recommended and I am looking forward to another tour soon!” Angelika

“Thank you for a most memorable and happy day on the boats down the river Thames. I had such an enjoyable time, meeting lovely, friendly people, and having the opportunity to learn more about steering and actually have a practice myself. Lunch was delicious too!” Joanna

“Excellent day on the river enjoying the views. We had a lovely lunch and I made some new friends. I enjoyed having a go at steering and helping with the locks which added to the overall experience. Linda was the perfect host.” Rachel

“Fantastic chilled day on the river, taking in the sights. Having worked in the City for over 30 years, it was lovely to see this beautiful part of the Thames. The people were so friendly, the lunch was amazing and what a warm and lovely host we had, thank you Linda” Carol

“Honestly, we both absolutely loved it! We thoroughly enjoyed being involved and participating in steering the boat and doing our best to throw the ropes up when going through the locks and tying up for our lunch and pub stop. I think our Narrowboat companions bonded well and we all had a great time dancing and generally having fun out on the river. (Great selection of tunes by the way !!)

Seeing the sights from the river gave a different perspective and watching the wildlife and people on the water was very enjoyable pastime. The champagne and strawberries went down a treat as we boarded as was the afternoon tea and cake which totally hit the spot. A fantastic day trip out and look forward to repeating the experience…5/5” Jude and Louise

As we marked the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings this week I wanted to share two images with you recognising the significant role the Canadian troops played 🇨🇦

Many of them were based in Surrey for part of their English service. They used the heaths and woodland as a training ground for engineers building trench systems. They also constructed Dunsfold Aerodrome.

You can still see a wooden Canadian Army sentry box at Dunley Hill Farm on Ranmore and this memorial at Albury Heath….where Montgomery addressed the Canadian troops before departure for D-Day

I also wanted to share a heartwarming and remarkable story from my village (Westcott) archives…

Flying Officer John Milne was a Canadian from Saskatchchewan. He joined the RAF in 1939 and took part in the Battle of Britain. In 1940 when he was flying a Hurricane 1 over Dorking, disaster struck and his plane was shot down by enemy fire.

John was faced with an almost impossible decision....should he bail and risk using a parachute which may be damaged or should he try and land? He decided to land and managed to get the plane down at the base of the North Downs, just up the road from here. Miraculously he survived, suffering with a broken hip and shrapnel in his back.

John was taken to hospital in Dorking where he was treated by local nurse, Non Jones. They fell in love and got married the following year in 1941.

For the remaining war years, he was a flying instructor.

At the end of the war John took Non back to his hometown in the Canadian prairies and they went on to have 3 children and a marriage which lasted 64 years! How wonderful!

John, like many others, travelled over 5000 miles to help Britain in its hour of need. It was an honour to remember him and all the other heroes who helped give us the freedom we enjoy today 🙏

Orchids have got to be one of the most beautiful and unique wildflowers you can come across in the UK 🌸

These early purple orchids are quite rare now but well worth finding if you are up for the challenge!

They arrive at the same time as the bluebells so you can enjoy both together!

Today I came across several of these gorgeous, wildflowers among an enchanting carpet of blue on Ranmore Common.

I go to the same spot every year to see them 💙 💕

On TOP of the world!!! ❤️

18 Ladies joined Mark and I on the vintage bus yesterday to celebrate Emily’s forthcoming wedding 👰

It was all a big surprise for the bride to be…she had no idea where we were going or what we were going to do!

What a FANTASTIC group of Ladies and so many laughs! I loved every moment of our ‘Hen Do Tour’ of The Surrey Hills

Really touched to receive this feedback too:

“Thank you Linda, it was a fantastic day from start to finish. You made us all feel so welcome, and planned a fun filled day with so many exciting things to do and see. It was lovely meeting all of the girls, I think that we all made such special memories. Thanks again xx”
