Mr & Mrs Waugh
Two of our favourite tours were American Rockies and New Zealand. Fantastic scenery, farm visits and information filled holidays never to be forgotten. Marisa was so helpful organising our extras when we decided to add five days in Australia to our itinerary. Thank you x
Mr Rooke
Bay Farm tours are so well organised, we travel with and meet like minded friends, I have special beautiful memories and photos with my late wife Jenny of such good holidays with Bay Farm. Cannot thank you enough for making wonderful memories for me and I will definitely be joining you again in the future. Sadly, because of the Coronavirus, our Germany tour was cancelled, but I’m sure it will hopefully go ahead next year and I’ll be with you, take care and thank you to all at Bay Farm.

My husband wouldn't go abroad on holiday as not keen on flying. Then we discovered BFT! 14 holidays to amazing destinations. Brilliant company & well escorted. Seen the World!! Meet up with so many BFT friends regularly!
Mr & Mrs Jones
Thank you to the wonderful Harold (Tour Manager) for sharing his memories of Great Eccleston tractor pull. It was a lovely night in Twizel, New Zealand and a clear night so we saw the Southern Cross and had the promise of Mount Cook the next day.

California
A short note of thanks for the wonderful holiday Bay Farm Tours organised to California. We both agree it is one of the best holidays we have had, and certainly the best tour we have done. A lot of time and effort had gone into the arrangements for the tour, and congratulations are due to all involved.
We saw so much in the time we were there it was unbelievable, and all the visits, agricultural and sightseeing were so interesting.

Rockies
We would like to thank everybody at Bay Farm Tours involved in arranging the American Rockies and National Parks tour, which we have just returned from. The whole holiday was excellent, but the highlight for us was the Conistoga wagon ride along part of the original Oregon Trail, just brilliant.

South American Adventure
Now I have got my feet back on the ground after a truly marvellous tour to South America I wanted to write and thank all involved at Bay Farm Tours. The itinerary was absolutely spot on and there was something new every day. The organisation was excellent and the whole group gelled so well, which made it even better. I am sure we made life long friends forever from the tour.
