Traveler Reviews

I took this tour in April 2018. Dave my guide and driver was awesome. He is so passionate about his job that you can tell he loves it. He was always willing to take suggestions on sights to see or where to stop as this was our tour not just his job to take us. Since we had no one to pick up in Glasgow, he stopped at the Kelpies and we all squealed in delight. It was something I didn't think I would see and very much wanted to. He never rushed or bored us with his stories and bits about history. I am a Rabbies fan and Dave just instilled my deserve to be a repeat customer next year. A note to consider. If the weather is bad, remember to take waterproof shoes that won't fall off when going to the standing stones.
