The outlander tour was great with a real Scotsmen as our tour guide. Craig was not only extremely versed in his knowledge of the terrain and history, he was an excellent, Safe driver. Quite a good tour., we highly recommend this tour to our family and friends.
2-day Outlander Tour (Small Group)The tour started off a bit disorganized but a change of guide and the experience improved with Neus as our tour guide. The itinerary was varied and the weather played its part. We had a small group who gelled well and we had fun. The accomodation was comfortable and the last night's stay at The Social Hub was excellent. We had a brilliant bus driver, Brendan who was very informative as well. Thank you to Neus our lovely tour guide and Brendan who drove us safely around Scotland.
