About me:Hi, I'm Kayla a tour guide at Busabout! I've always loved to travel, I was a travel agent but wanted something more, I wanted to be out on the road travelling with my passengers rather sitting behind a desk. So I find myself with Busabout living my dream showing fellow travellers around Europe. Europe is home for now, I have fallen inlove with the old towns, stunning landscapes, delicious food, gripping history and culture! The best part is it's my job to showcase everything Europe has to offer. Hopefully I will see you soon on the Hop on Hop off Network or on the Busabout Ultimate Scandi-Baltic tour. If you have been a passenger of mine it would mean the world to me if you could leave a review. Thank you. Safe travels.

The best thing about Kayla as a guide is that she learnt what kind of traveller I was and what I enjoyed doing and gave me reccomendedations from that which was so helpful.

Our guide Kayla went out her way to make everyone feel comfortable and was always there to answer any questions. Kayla had a great passion for travel and history which made her walking tours super interesting and exciting. Both Kayla and our bus driver Michael were positive and easy going which made the trip run smoothly. My favourite places on this tour were Stockholm and Warsaw but everywhere is amazing!

I do think that busabout can give some more information around the actual trip and align the website to what happens in reality, more information will help plan better.

Kayla was extremely organised and created the perfect itinerary suiting everyone’s wants and needs in every city we visited. She made the tour so much fun. I have fallen Inlove with Italy and I’m so glad Kayla was the one who toured me around this beautiful country. I love the country and Kayla so much I’ve decided she can be the celebrant of my marriage when I get married in Italy.
I truely believe that Kayla could tour you around a garbage tip and you would still have an amazing time with how she puts in so much effort and time to make sure you are having the most amazing time possible.
Thankyou Kayla for touring me around Italy I had the most amazing time and I can’t wait to see you in the future for my future wedding and any more Busabout tours!
