"This was a day out to celebrate Sally's birthday and our 26th wedding anniversary, and we couldn't have made a better choice. The whole experience was perfect from the initial telephone conversation to arrange a day just for us. Our driver, Stewart, was a delight and made sure that every part of our day was just perfect, with an excellent mix of interesting places to visit, exhilarating rides and an enjoyable lunch.

This great ride will take you to one of the premier sites in the South West. Berkeley Castle has been owned and lived in by the same family for 850 years. Built for war, this castle is the perfect example of medieval architecture. There is much to see and do here and Berkeley Castle will not disappoint.
After picking you up in Bath we will head out over the toll bridge at Bathampton. We ride north on the A46 where we have extensive views over the valley. We bypass the market town of Chipping Sodbury and make our way along the wonderful winding roads to the village of Wickwar. We cross the M5 and hook up with the A38 – this old coaching road sees very little traffic since the motorway opened and is a joy to ride. When we leave the A38, we wind our way through some narrow lanes into Berkeley and park up. We will return by the same route and bring you back to your pick up point.

2. Chew Valley Lake tour
Time: 2½ hours
Cost: £220 for 2 people
Includes:
· A fantastic ride on our Razorcat trike through country lanes to the lake
· Cream Tea or lunch at the lake restaurant
Created in 1955, Chew Valley Lake is Bristol Water’s pride and joy. With its beautiful setting and relaxing atmosphere the lake is a popular destination all year round. The route there takes us on some of the most scenic roads in the area. At the lake you can enjoy a lunch or a famous Somerset cream tea before we ride you back to your pick up point.
Heading out of Bath on the Lower Bristol Road we cruise along the A4 for a short time before cutting off to Corston. This wonderful winding road will take us through the lovely villages of Marksbury, Chelwood and Stanton Wick. At Bishop Sutton we turn down through the village to the lake itself where we park up for photos and a bite to eat. After your break, we return the way we came with a second chance to experience the winding roads back to Bath.

Cost: £170 for 2 people
Includes:
· A fantastic ride on our Razorcat trike to a village pub

Once we pick you up we will take you for a sensational ride so you can experience the fun and exhilaration that only a Razorcat trike tour can give. Winding our way through the country lanes you will be taken to one of our favourite village pubs where you can enjoy a superb relaxed meal. We then take you back to your pick up point – fed and happy.
Heading out of Bath over the toll bridge we make our way up the hill to Box. This is where Brunel built his famous rail tunnel which we can see as we pass over the track. Once at the top we can stop to take a quick look back over the valley towards Bath in the distance. Passing through Corsham we head out to Lacock and cruise through the main street of this medieval village. Climbing out of Lacock, we reach the peak and level out for a short distance before we drop down Derry Hill to pass by Chippenham. From there we head to the hamlet of Ford for lunch.
This former mill is situated on Bye Brook and has a cosy, homely feel with tasty food and real ale. Weather permitting you can even sit by the river and watch the trout.
4. A Visit to Wales tour (two countries in one day!)
Time: 4 hours
Cost: £340 for 2 people
Includes:
· A fantastic ride on our Razorcat trike
· Bridge tolls
· Lunch at Chepstow
Please note. A lot of this trip is on the Motorway.
After picking you up we head along the A46 to the M4. We take an exhilarating ride along the motorway to the old Severn Bridge, built in 1966 at a cost of £8 million. On the other side we enter Monmouthshire in South Wales. Although a different country within the UK there is no need to bring your passport.
After lunch in Chepstow you can have a look around this historic town and perhaps visit the striking castle with an easy walk to the outskirts. We then board the super Razorcat trike and return to England via the new Severn Bridge (opened in 1996). We head back along the M4 and A46 to Bath. A great ride in two countries.
5. A Little self-indulgence (Dining at Lucknam Park's 5 star hotel)
ONE OF OUR MOST POPULAR TOURS!
Time: 2 hours
Cost: £180 for 2 people
Includes: 
· An exhilarating ride on our Razorcat Trike
· 5 star two-course meal from the set Brasserie menu
· Coffee
After we pick you up in Bath we will head out to the toll bridge with its beautiful view over the weir. We then make our way along the old Roman road climbing up on to the ridge towards Colerne. This was the main northern route out of Bath and when we level off you get a perfect example of a straight Roman road with far reaching views over Wiltshire.
On our left we pass the Shire Stones. This Victorian cluster of heavy stones marks the spot where three shires meet (Wiltshire, Somerset and Gloucester). While the Roman road carries on in a straight line to Cirencester we curve to the right and on to the magnificent Lucknam Park Hotel. Once a country estate, this wonderful building is everything you would expect from a 5 star hotel. The service is superb and the decor will impress.
After your relaxing lunch, depending on how much time is available, we will continue our ride through some beautiful scenery before you are dropped back to your pick up point.
