Wonderful - Paul was so knowledgeable and went out of his way to make this day fantastic. It was a smaller group tour and all the stopping points were perfect. I did not feel rushed during the tour.

- The travel accommodation was really nice, a chartered bus with A/C and anything you left on the bus was always safe with the door closed after everyone was off. Would definitely book again! The views of Stirling Castle and Rosslyn Chapel were incredible. If you’re a fan of Andrew Carnegie then Dunfermline Abbey was a great location to visit too. I wouldn’t buy a ticket to Stirling Castle to be honest, it wasn’t worth it. I’d go explore the city of Stirling and take pictures of the castle from afar.

Outstanding day of Scottish icons - Fabulous trip to Stirling Castle, Rosslyn and Dunfermline. The trip allowed us to see many of the Scottish historical icons in one day.
The tour gave us ample time to explore, experience and take in great pictures.
Not too rushed, not too slow, our tour guide Graham was exceptional. He was knowledgeable, informative, polite, engaging and made our trip worthwhile.
I wouldn’t change anything whatsoever, and highly recommend if you are seeking to visit these sites.

Great tour with Graham.... - Great tour with Graham. He was very friendly and provided a lot of information. It was unfortunate that he had to compete with a noisy air unit. Otherwise, very enjoyable.

Rosslyn chapel - A stunning little church, where every details seems carved with the utmost care. The interior are awesome, every little piece of the surface has been taken care of. The vines on roof seems almost unreal, the pillars are a piece of art. As a plus, every hour there is an expert that explain the history of the place through time. It is really a must see.

Perfect tour size, fantastic tour guide, & great bang for your buck tour - The pace of this tour and the amount of stuff we were able to visit were absolutely perfect. Our tour guide, Iain, was top notch! He was very welcoming and friendly, learned where we all were from, and had fantastic stories about each location and tips for getting the most out of every stop we visited. He even included added stops at Bannockburn and the Firth of Forth bridges. The group size was kept pretty small - about 15 people - which was perfect for keeping a good pace from place to place. Lots of interesting trivia about Scotland along the way was great. So happy we booked this tour and I would totally recommend this to anyone visiting Scotland and wanting to make the most of their time.

Great tour! - The goal for us to take this tour was to visit Rosslyn Chapel. We were very pleased with this company. The Driver was very friendly and knowledgeable. The Couch was very comfortable. The Chaple was beautiful and the history of Chaple was quite amazing. It was a day full of fun. We wish that we had more time at Rosslyn Chaple.

Excellent choice of sites. - Great seeing all three places especially stirling castle. Our leader was ok. Kind of hot and cold. He went to a concert the night before. Was probably tired.
