We had a wonderful time spending two days with Doug seeing so many amazing places in Cornwall. We did his "Lizard Peninsula" and "Poldark & West Cornwall" tours across the two days, with a few tweaks here and there to accommodate our specific interests. Before the trip, he was very responsive to all of my questions, and during the tour he did a wonderful job driving us through and to places we never could have found or navigated on our own. He is very knowledgable about the area and all the places we visited. It was our first trip to Cornwall, and we couldn't have asked for a better introduction to all of the beautiful places it has to offer!

Loved this tour. Communication with the tour provider was outstanding. Phil met us at our hotel on time and was very courteous. He listened to our wishes, and even though we didn't have specific places we wanted to visit, Phil recommended a tour which was outstanding. Even though the weather was fairly typical for this time of year, cool and wet, we pushed through and visited many mines, Penzance, St Ives, Lands End, Mousehole, and several Poldark locations used for filming. He allowed us ample time for walking and hiking and brought along a large umbrella for our use. He was very well versed on the history of the area, and we stopped at a country side pub for a lovely lunch of pasties and English roast sirloin of beef with yorkshire pudding, potatoes and fresh vegetables! 😋 yum! Phil showed us the out of the way historical markers, such as a historical field of prehistoric markers in a farmers field which could be visited by the public, similar to Stonehenge. Of course, we did visit the field, albeit the mud, wet and cool weather! I also got a lot of pictures of the lovely daffodils in bloom around Cornwall! It was a bit muddy that day, but we had a great time! My husband and I highly recommend this tour and really really appreciated Phil as our tour guide!

Doug the owner of Meneage Tours arrived right on time, 9 am at our hotel in St Ives for a full days tour around the west & south coast of Cornwall.
Doug was very informative and gave us an idea of the planned day, also asking if we had anything additional that he could take us too.
Our day included seeing plenty of tin mines, ancient burial grounds, Cape Cornwall, Lands End, Poldark filming locations, St Micheal's Mount Penzance and views to die for.
The day of our tour was extremely windy, so the sea was wiped up by the wind creating fantastic waves crashing onto the miles of rugged coast. Plenty of stops for photo taking, as well as a coffee break and a tasty pub lunch at Treen
As we travelled Doug gave us loads of detail of each place we visited or passed. His knowledge and friendly personality was brilliant and this added to our day out.
We returned us to our hotel about 5 pm having had a thoroughly great day made extra special by Doug.

What a great experience! We couldn't have been happier, except we should have planned to stay longer. Phil was a great guide, highly entertaining, and a great host. We experienced Cornwall as never anticipated. Thank you for a great experience.

We loved this tour with Doug at the wheel. Very informative and visited some beautiful parts of Cornwall. Pub lunch was very good a full day of history and magical scenery.
Would love to do it again.
Thank you Doug for looking after us.

We toured with Doug for two days and had a great time. He customized our tour because we wanted to do some ancestry visits and he was able to arrange a church visit with a member of that church. We were able to go in the church and she had records of the graves of family members. We also visited many of the more popular sites and Doug was a wealth of information about local events and history. He is a great and safe driver and I recommend his tour service.

I’m so glad that you enjoyed yourselves and it was a pleasure meeting you all. I hope that the genealogy records office in Truro will be able to provide answers to your questions and if I can help further please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Doug at Meneage Tours has extensive experience in working with the production staffs of the Poldark, Doc Martin, and other film and TV properties. His knowledge of the locales for various filming sites is wonderfully detailed. Over a two day tour period, we were shown many of these; in that we were staying in Falmouth and that many of these sites were in more westerly and northern parts of Cornwall, we spent a fair mount of time driving. But there is no way, had we hired our own car, that we would have been able to navigate the many back roads and single track rural lanes to arrive at these locations. Doug knew just where to go. Lunch at a couple of completely-off-the-main-track pubs was icing on the cake. The occasional Neolithic standing stone, quoit, and stone circle made for a better understanding of Cornwall and its history. Doug is friendly, well versed, and outgoing. You’ll enjoy the time you spend with him. Highly recommend

I’m so happy that you had such a great time exploring the sights around Bodmin Moor like Trevethy Quoit and King Doniert’s Stone, then the rugged beauty of West Penwith and the abandoned mines at Botallack and Penberth Cove now famous for Ross Poldark.
We look forward to seeing you soon to explore other areas of Cornwall. Doug 👍

We didn't know anything about Cornwall or the region, and we saw both Poldark sites and others. We also enjoyed a classic pub lunch.

Despite the windy and rainy time of my stay in Cornwall everything went smoothly and warmthy. I booked two one day tours in the very last moment but they eased everything. I will always remember such a wonderful coastline, the mines, the dolmens and menhirs...The travelling along the cornish routes even was funny thanks to Doug!

We have 5 in our small family group, is there any possible way we could all go on the tour?
Thanks!

I think so, yes. I believe Doug spoke of a minivan of some sort that also used in his tours.
