My husband and I had an amazing time discovering Glastonbury and surrounds. Dan's expertise and knowledge of the area was unsurpassable. Dan helped me tick a big event off my bucket list which was to climb the Tor. I though it initially was going to be an impossible task with my health condition. However, with Dan's patience inspiration and motivation he assisted my husband, and I managed to climb the Tor. As my sight fades, I will have incredible memories to hold onto. We strongly recommend Bath Insider Tours with Dan.The trip to Glastonbury Abbey , Glastonbury Tor, and The Chalice Well provided a truly spiritual experience. Daniel was an wonderful guide and shared all of his knowledge on the history and legends that these sacred places hold.✨

The Glastonbury Tour with Daniel was excellent. His knowledge of the area, including the flora, fauna, and community, along with history and mythology, made the tour magical and educational. Daniel is a seeker who understands that history is fascinating and incomplete. As a natural storyteller, he sparks the imagination and carefully points out the clues to deeper knowledge while carefully navigating existing beliefs to give everyone space to find their personal truth. In addition to the exploration of the ruins of the abbey, Daniel included a walk up to the Tor preceded by the best part, which was the red and white springs, a magical place where the followers of earth based mysticism come for sacred ancient rituals. Thank you for making this a very special day.There are not enough words to describe what fun it is to tour with Daniel. He is a gentleman and extremely knowledgeable. We enjoyed our Stonehenge tour so much we booked an additional tour with him! Rest assured if you are on a tour with him you are going to have a wonderful time!
