David Smith16 September 2024Absolutely brilliant day out with Maria to Greenway. very friendly and knowledgeable with loads of facts and factoids not only about Agatha but the other places we visited. mini tour of Dartmouth while we waited for the ferry was a bonus. nice pace not rushed in any way so we got a chance to see everything. she even managed to swing the weather 😃. would definitely recommend this tour would award 6 stars if i couldmiriam struck13 September 2024Marie, Julie, and our driver Stewart were excellent guides! They were friendly, knowledgeable, and shared their deep breadth of local knowledge. Knowing we were here for the Agatha Christie Festival they not only shared interesting facts about Christie’s connections to the area but also included other experiences and history of Dartmoor. We got to see plenty of wildlife on the moors and great views. They showed us a real variety of towns and villages as well as the national park. We even stumbled on a wedding party! We had a fabulous time and would recommend this tour to anyone else. Thank you Maria and Julie!Cheery Mitford19 August 2024Absolutely flawless planning and amazing local knowledge from Maria and Julie made our two days with them so special. My best friend and I are huge Agatha Christie fans and we learnt so much from Maria on our tours, and greatly enjoyed discussing the local areas and how they inspired Christie’s novels. We visited Greenway, Burgh Island, Dartmoor and lovely villages with a Christie connection. Amazing attention to detail and such charming company made this a holiday to remember. All the lovely photos, souvenirs and memories we now have are already making friends jealous! We can’t recommend Miss Lemon highly enough, as long as Maria and Julie have availability for us when we tour with them again!Janet Muir21 July 2024Absolutely fabulous tour of Greenway with the two Miss Lemons Julie and Maria who couldn't do enough for us. A lovely leisurely day which was truly the icing on the cake of our holiday. I cannot fault them and if we are back in Torquay will not hesitate to book with them again.MUTI ANDREA18 July 2024Accoglienza stupenda, le signorine Lemon sono state gentili, disponibili e professionali!joy unterlander11 July 2024We can't say enough wonderful things about our tour to beautiful Burgh Island. We had an absolutely fantastic time driving through Devon's beautiful country side to wonderful Burgh Island. We enjoyed a scrumptious afternoon tea at the hotel, visited the centuries old Pilchard Inn dating back to the 1300s, rode the sea tractor during the high tide, all thanks to the delightful and very efficient Miss Lemon, can't wait to return next year. Thank you so very much Miss Lemon 🍋 ♥️Sandra Gittins6 July 2024We were so lucky to travel to Burgh Island with Miss Lemon x 2. Maria & Julie ensured that we had a day to remember. The Island itself was magical with a delicious tea at the hotel. It was like we had stepped into the pages of a book ourselves. The ladies were great company and had lots of fun information for us. It was a very special experience.Akiko Goda30 June 2024I am from Tokyo Japan visited Engliand for the first time in June 2024. Miss Lemon's tour guide was extraordinally superb. I usually travel by myself, but I truly recommend their guided tour when you visit Torquay or you come for Agatha Christie. I guarantee you a wonderful time with these two efficient and thoughtful ladies!Jeanne Mailhot13 June 2024I did a custom day tour of the Moors and Burgh Island (including the lovely tea). I absolutely adore my day and the great company. The day was organized around my wishes and corresponded perfectly to what I had imagined. A splendid day exploring the sceneries my favorite author wrote in. The communication was very clear and helpful from the first email to the trip day. Thank you very much Julie and Maria.Helen Lanzrein13 May 2024Miss Lemon, not Hercule Poirot's secretary, but at least as clever, efficient and supportive as her. They provided us with loads of valuable nd cool tips, and we had great fun visiting Greenway House together ❤️ Would definitely recommend!
