Peak District Tour Itinerary
Your day trip to the Peak District begins in the morning as your driver-guide collects you from your Liverpool accommodation. As you embark on the scenic journey to the Peak District National Park, they will share their expert knowledge of the stunning landscapes, historic landmarks, and captivating stories that make this region extraordinary.
Mam Tor
Our first destination is Mam Tor, one of the Peak District’s most famous viewpoints. Enjoy a private guided walk after sunrise, offering exclusive panoramic views of the rolling hills and valleys. As you walk, our knowledgeable local guide will provide fascinating history, legends, and geological facts about Mam Tor, the surrounding Great Ridge, and the ancient hill fort. Your guide can take you to the best vantage points away from the crowds for a truly breathtaking and peaceful moment, allowing you to capture stunning photos as the morning mist lifts over the Edale Valley. The route and pace can be adjusted to your preferences, whether you want a leisurely walk or a more challenging hike.
Following your walk or hike, indulge in a gourmet breakfast at a private countryside estate or a historic manor house. Enjoy locally sourced produce, fresh pastries, and artisanal coffee with a view of the tranquil Peak District landscape.
Speedwell Cavern
The next attraction on your Peak District itinerary offers an incredibly unique experience as you enjoy a one-of-a-kind boat journey through a flooded underground cave. Travel through a long, narrow underground tunnel before finishing at the “Bottomless Pit”, a mysterious pool where the depth is still unknown to this day. The eerie echoes, still water, and dim lighting make this a spooky yet mesmerizing sight. While traveling through the unique cave, learn about the region’s mining history, with real stories about the hardships, dangers, and strange discoveries made by miners years ago.
Chatsworth House
Your Peak District adventure continues with an exclusive tour of Chatsworth House, home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire. Chatsworth has a fascinating history dating back over 500 years and has been visited by monarchs and celebrities alike. You may even recognize it from numerous films and TV shows, notably Mr. Darcy’s Pemberley in Pride & Prejudice.
Skip the line and access private areas of the house, including the Duke’s personal library and hidden art collections, followed by a walk through the stunning formal gardens.
Finish your time in this fine stately home in the Chatsworth Farm shop, where you can pick up souvenirs such as artisan foods, fine local wines, and luxury gifts.
Ladybower Reservoir & Castleton
Drive through the scenic Derwent Valley and admire the breathtaking Ladybower Reservoir. Marvel at the whirlpool-like giant overflow plugholes, which offer great opportunities for unique photography.
Explore the relaxing reservoir on kayaks, paddleboards, or electric boats as you take in the surrounding hills and forests. To make the experience even more exclusive, you can upgrade your experience with a private helicopter ride over the Peak District for a once-in-a-lifetime aerial view of the landscapes.
For the last stop of our day trip from Liverpool, walk through the charming village of Castleton. Admire the picturesque stone cottages and 14th-century Church of St. Edmund before finishing the day in some of the most famous country pubs in all of the Peak District. Take the opportunity to enjoy local ales, hearty meals, open fires, and authentic English pubs in the village.

Your driver guide will then drop you off at your Liverpool accommodation, allowing you to relax after an eventful day.
