Our flight was piloted by Chris. He was very informative and polite and took us over the Isle of White, the beach, Weymouth. The actual experience was AMAZING!! Everywhere we went he told us about it and the experience itself was amazing. I highly recommend this as it is definitely an experience you will never forget, one reason for that is that he handed me the controls and I FLEW THE PLANE! Everything was nice, chilled, very safe and easy. Overall, couldn't have been better ????

What lovely way to see this city which I have visited quite a few times but always on my own. Thank you Andrew for a really interesting morning!

I am a regular walker and traveller and live in the Peak District. I love this area for its beauty and nature. This particular walk is special as we start along the Peak Trail on an old train line used for carrying the quarry stones, then move on to Woodland, beautiful open countryside and through traditional villages. It is the variety of underfoot terrain, views and breathtaking nature that I love so much about this walk.
