Rabbie’s small group tours are driven by curiosity and guided by storytellers. We find the stories that go deeper and live longer in travellers' minds. On our journeys, everyone’s hungry for the little-known or just-happened, and we can go after them: no track too small, too trodden or obscure....

The Isle of Arran is a remarkable place with breathtaking scenery and old world charm in its villages. Graham the tour leader did an excellent job in educating us on the island and its attractions as well as describing Scottish history in general. Nothing was to much trouble to ensure we all had a good time. He got us on a ferry that wouldn’t take us and ran a delivery service for a tour member that solved a lot of problems. The Isle of Arran is Scotland in miniature. A must do tour before and after time in Its major cities.

Peter Falconer was an excellent guide with great historical knowledge, a good sense of humour and a story or two to tell. He put no pressure on us to pay for extra little tours and took great care to ensure I reached my transportation on time as I had to leave several hours earlier. Loved our tour and accommodation and would definitely recommend the isle of Aaron for its extreme beauty and picturesque location regardless of the autumn weather.
