Our Information Centres will be able to help with your travel needs, advising you on tours and helping you book a place.
Explorer tickets
Why not make the most of the bus service and enjoy your holiday without the hassle of travelling in your car? You can do this quite cost effectively by purchasing an explorer ticket. These allow you to travel throughout Cumbria on most services, stopping off to visit villages, attractions or enjoy walks. You can also travel to some destinations outside Cumbria.
