Tine, the local wildlife people (they used to be BBONT but have changed to something like BBOWT) do them for v modest amount and have some which aren't far from Bicester I think (sort of Aylesbury-ish) . I got ticked off once for ringing (not BBONT, some other group) and asking about a fungus walk - because I want to be able to find and identify them so I can eat them - but this bloke got all snooty and said his walk was all about indentifying them and he wasn't sure why people all wanted to eat them these days - idiot. So make sure you get the sort of walk you want ! Good hunting0

English nature also do them, the one in Yorkshire is free. But it is more about looking and identifying them than eating them! However the guy who did it last year was great and we saw some ace poisonous ones which were red with white spots, like you see in fairy tales!!
