The New Forest Tour provides a hop-on, hop-off service connecting many parts of the New Forest up, the tours run daily and three routes are on offer.

New Forest Minibus Tours run trips through the New Forest operated by a former Forester. Tours last 3.5 hours and can include subjects such as deer, habitats or famous New Forest ponies. The vehicle carries up to eight passengers, is air-conditioned and you’ll be equipped with educational materials and binoculars to help you explore our National Park further. The tours can be booked to start and end at your holiday accommodation, at one of the New Forest’s railway stations or coach stations or from a local address and the Southampton Cruise Terminals.
