The one hour hop-on hop-off tour follows a circular route through pretty countryside and farmland, along the foot of steeply rising downland and out to the dramatic Western point of the Island.
The highlight of the tour is the spectacular climb up the cliff edge to the point high above the Needles Rocks and lighthouse. The tour also serves the harbour town of Yarmouth, Freshwater Bay, and passes the site of the infamous 1970 Isle of Wight Festival, The Needles Old Battery, Afton apple orchard, Dimbola Lodge, the restored home of Victorian photographer, Julia Margaret Cameron, the Needles Park and Alum Bay.
