The tour provided a good representation of Scotland past and present. I especially liked the visit to the farm to see sheepdog at workand the cookery school both provided an authentic peak at the culture of Scotland.. The tour also provided an provide an opportunity to to see a variety of castles. I do not recommend the add on of the Scottish cultural experience. It felt like a cheap theme park show. Overall it was a memorable experience.Show more

Working sheep farm was my favorite. Edinburgh Castle was amazing also. Not enough free time on our own to explore. Ended up basically having to buy 2 airline tickets and a change ticket fee to go without taking the chance of getting a nice TSA agent to put me through since my name did not match my passport. Collette would not talk to me personally, Said correspondence had to go through my tour representative who wasn't much help either.Show more

Specifically picked this trip because it was a level 2 trip. There was also a level 3 tour available. However it was conducted not as a level 2 but a level 3 tour. We started every morning at 7 and did not end til 8:30 in the evening. The tour guide added so many stops to see extra things that there was no leisure time or time to shop. Our time in Loch Bess was three minutes. Get off the boat and on the bus because of all the other stuff he included. I'm sure some people loved the extra stops, I was not one of them. Also had issues with food at one stop and cob webs in windows and hanging from fixtures at another stop.Show more
