Here is a review from a bespoke day trip from York through The North York Moors to Whitby.
“I needed to get from York to Whitby and wanted to do some sightseeing along the way. Andy and I had discussed an itinerary in advance and he added some suggestions that worked out well.
He picked me up at 9 a.m. in York then we drove by Yorkshire Lavender so I could get some photos of the fields and the views. We arrived at Castle Howard around 10 a.m., so I explored the gardens en route to the house (which opens at 10:30 a.m.). The gardens are spectacular, providing contrasts in colours and styles.
We went to Cawthorn Roman Camp for the 1 mile-easy trail. Followed by another quick stop to see what ‘might’ be a Roman road across the moors Wheeldale Roman Road.
We drove through Goathland and then at Andy’s suggestion we detoured to the Hole of Horcum for more great views. We drove to Whitby via Robin Hood’s Bay, so I could get an idea if I could walk there from Whitby (my conclusion was ‘no’… I could walk TO there, but would never make it back up the hill!). It’s awfully cute though and would be worth visiting.
We arrived in Whitby just before 5 p.m., exactly as planned. Andy was very accommodating throughout the day (had even brought water for us both since the weather’s been so hot. He accompanied me on the walk to the Roman camp, offered several other suggestions of places for walks, and was an interesting traveling companion for the day.
I’d highly recommend his services either for more conventional transfers or for this type of touring. He grew up in Yorkshire, so could tell stories of his dad taking him around to various sites like the Hole of Horcum.”
