England: personal tour
Celtic Horizons tours, 27 Locks Hill, Frome BA 11 1 NA, Somerset; 011-44-137-346-1784, www.celtichorizons.com.
“A definite highlight of a recent trip through England was Celtic Horizons, a personal tour service. Alan Peters, the owner and our tour guide, was so interesting. He had many surprises along the way that we would not have been able to see otherwise. He was reasonable in cost, and you can make arrangements by e-mail.” Tours, by day or hour, run about $36 per hour.
