"The whole tour was amazing! Alex is amazing and really talented at what he does. Can see that he is very passionate about this job! Makes so much effort to explained literally everything to us and ensures our safety. Really felt like my mum and I got to experience Scotland in-depth. We had a lot of time to explore the places we went to. It did not feel rushed at all! Alex definitely deserves a raise!

"0verrall, the itinerary was excellent, providing loads of history. It would have been a great addition to include some folk or Gaelic music...a pub experience. One four star restaurant would be sufficient. The accomodation was comfortable with a staff ready to meet traveller's needs.
