Wonderful day with Trish! - Trish is wonderful! Such a wonderful day exploring St. Andrews with Trish. She was very knowledgeable and incredibly kind! She made sure to highlight things of interest. If there is a way to request her, I would - you will not be disappointed.

A great way to spend a morning in a beautiful town - On 28th November 2024, CC was a really good tour guide. I'd not visited St Andrews before, so I found the whole tour extremely interesting, and the architectural buildings were breathtaking at times. CC pitched the delivery of information just right, with little quips and anecdotes throughout the walk, which helped lighten the moment during some of the dark and chilling historical stories. Definitely a morning well spent in a beautiful town. I will definitely return to St Andrews. Thank you CC.

An informative and exhilarating tour - Cate was a charming and knowledgeable guide, explaining the history of St Andrews, with some gossipy elements lightening the sometimes gruesome details. She got the balance just right. The tour was the perfect length, leaving us wanting to do some exploration of our own. The recommendations of cafés and restaurants were much appreciated.

I went on this walking... - I went on this walking tour on Oct. 30, 2024, and it was great! I highly recommend it. Cate was our guide and she was very knowledgeable as she provided lots of interesting information about the history of St. Andrews. There were only 5 of us in the walking tour (just a coincidence) and this small group was nice because we had plenty of opportunities to ask questions and to clearly hear everything Cate was saying, which can be a little difficult in a large group setting. We were lucky with the mild, sunny, pleasant weather on this day. Thanks, Cate, Walking Tours in St. Andrews, and Viator!

A fun, informative tour of St Andrew’s - Cici, our guide, on Sunday the 3rd November delivered a hugely informative tour of St Andrew’s. I arrived in the town with no prior knowledge of its history and culture and left wanting to learn more. Thank you Cici for being a friendly, enthusiastic and inclusive tour guide.
