Excellent Tour Guide. - Stephan was a most excellent Guide. He is very knowledgeable and informative. The tour was pleasant and full of photo worthy scenes. All three locations we enjoyable, with the surprise stop at the Battle of Bannockburn overlook and the Robert the Bruce monument. The only drawback, which is common with every guided tour, is there just not enough time to see everything at Stirling and Rosslyn. But a small taste is better than no taste. Had it not been for "the Fringe" festival going on, we would have driven ourselves. Highland tours are perfect for a quick sight-seeing outing.

Worth every penny (or pound!) - Wonderful experience! Fun, knowledgeable historian at the wheel that took us to three of the most stunning places around Edinburgh. Stefan was easy to talk to and ask questions and provided a top notch experience.

A good mix of everything - It was an excellent opportunity to see the historical places in Scotland. Because we had only 3 days in Edinburgh a one-day trip had to cover sightseeing and history. We learned a lot and enjoyed the countryside. Our guide Keith was very knowledgeable and very friendly and helpful. Thank you for this lovely day out in the heart of Scotland, where we could get to see and learn a lot about three important sites.

Beautiful and so worth it! - WOW! Not only were the sites we visited absolutely stunning but our guide Ian was just a gem of a human. There was great history told, a very solid playlist for ride and an experience that was nothing but amazing. I will for sure be visiting Scotland again and hopefully I got to bring back to New York some Scotland magic. Thank you for such an unforgettable and much needed experience
