Enjoy the Lakes from our open top buses

Our very popular open top buses allow you to leave the car behind and let us be your driver for the day. With the £3 capped fare, see the Lake District in a different way. A fun, refreshing way to see the Lakes, our 599 open top buses cover the Central Lakes (Bowness, Windermere, Ambleside, Grasmere)
