Check the evidence
A good tour distinguishes a verified production location from a plausible viewpoint and explains when a site is private.
Ask before booking
Confirm route length, gradients, toilets, rest stops, group size, cancellation terms and whether a boat segment depends on the tide.
Self-guided alternative
A central Looe loop can connect public views of the Guildhall, harbour, bridge and Banjo Pier. Use current local maps and avoid presenting private premises as sets.
