We actually used Dorset Tours sometime ago and rebooked again this year. Unfortunately lockdown has prevented us from traveling so we are hoping to use them again in 2022! I just wanted to express what a pleasure it has been itinerary planning and dealing with Sally over the last few months. Would recommend, especially if you are in the Weymouth and Portland area. Thanks.

It was a great purchase. It was a well constructed tour and worth the money. We were shown numerous landmarks and we had full control of how rough the flight was. We chose the calm selection.

What an incredibly helpful and customer-focused company. We had originally booked on the Jurassic Coast cruise which was cancelled due to low numbers. They offered a refund or a longer harbour cruise with a free meal deal. They were very apologetic and worried about making sure we were happy. The cruise was great, the commentary was interesting and witty, and the customer service onboard put many other businesses to shame. Well done - brilliant
We are going to start this great tour with a visit to Weymouth where you can take some pictures of the famous and picturesque Harbour of Weymouth, we will have a quick stop at Greenhill Gardens and Sandsfoot Castle. Next, we will visit Durdle Door, one of the Jurassic coast’s most iconic landscapes. Our next stop will be Lulworth Cove, a geographical gem. The cove itself is a grey pebble beach bustling with families in the summer. Then we will head to one of the most popular locations to visit in the corner of Dorset. Corfe is a village full of history which offers a unique range of independent shops, pubs, restaurants and tea houses. It is well worth a visit!! After a visit to the castle what about relaxing over a cappuccino or a full Dorset cream tea whilst enjoying the stunning scenery of the Purbeck Hills. Last stop, Swanage, a small seaside town in the south east of Dorset. Missing you already !!

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 ????
