North York Moors and coast Full day Tour from York

Landscape photographer, geologist, science teacher and a keen naturalist. I have most of my own teeth (and a dry British sense of humour). I am a qualified teacher, with 20 years of experience. I am widely travelled within and beyond the UK. I have two vehicles, Ford Tourneo Connect (6 seats plus driver) and Nissan Qashqai (driver plus 3 adults and 1 child, but one of the adult spaces is behind me driving, so not 3 tall adults!). Transport between the locations is provided at no charge. As well as my Yorkshire and surrounds tours, I can also offer longer distance tours covering much of England and Wales (these work out a little more expensive than individual day tours to cover the costs of me being away from home). I am very happy to help with the detailed planning of these tours. I am a keen photographer and have my work for sale in a number of local outlets. I have been included in the "Landscape Photographer of the year" collection, and my work is frequently featured in the Guardian newspaper. I am a member of the National Trust, English Heritage, and Historic Houses assocation. I was born and brought up in the South-West, but I have lived and worked in many areas of the North of England including Greater Manchester, East, West and South Yorkshire. I also recently lived for a time in Durham castle. As an undergraduate I lived and studied in London. My personal interests include archaeology and ancient history, landscape photography, hill walking (Mountain leadership/summer trained). I enjoy meeting people from any parts of the world and sharing knowledge and experience. I can give tours of Yorkshire and surrounding areas including wildlife and photographic, history and architecture, archaeology, geology and scenery. Visits to local attractions such as Spurn Point, York, Beverley and Lincoln minsters, "The DEEP", Castle Howard, all with the personal experience and energy of a keen local photographer. Half day and day tours, pick up from the Ferry terminal and all other transport links in Yorkshire area. Personalized custom made tours by arrangement.

Award winning Landscape photographer, 2 bachelors degrees 2 masters degrees in addition to my teaching qualifications (in Geology, Psychology, Anthropology and teaching research).
