The 10 Best Sightseeing Tours in St Ives, England

July 5, 2021 Trinity Boughner

St. Ives boasts a quartet of golden-sand beaches. Sheltered coves draw swimmers and sun-worshippers, but water-sports aficionados visit St. Ives for great surfing, windsurfing and water-skiing conditions. And on your way there, keep your eyes peeled for a dude with seven wives. You never know when nursery rhymes might come true.

The tour was a delight and so was our tour guide Barry, he was hospitable, friendly and very knowledgeable. We learned many interesting things especially the history of some of the town in Cornwall. Very highly commendable that you will get a quote from them. It will be an experience you will never forget. Hope to see the rest of Cornwall very soon

Thank you Doug for our full day bespoke tour of Cornwall, encompassing The Poldark Tour, Lands End, the Atlantic and the Channel coastal towns and villages, it was a joy for my partner and myself. Your skilled driving down very narrow country roads, which we would have never attempted to navigate, giving us a stress free day which allowed the two of us to relax and enjoy the views and your well balanced information. Fun, good banter and a plethora of local/ancient knowledge......and plenty of stops for photo opportunities. A 5 star tour from a 5 star guide. The two of us can highly recommend Menaege Tours to anyone visiting Cornwall.
