Fabulous - Wow, this castle is straight out of a fairytale, it would be at home in Disney World. It’s beautiful inside and out with a wonderful history. Add the fabulous views from every corner and the wonderful grounds and it’s a little overwhelming we simply had no idea of the options when planning our visit or we would have planned more time. The staff were enthusiastic, friendly and helpful / the gentleman in the kiosk was very knowledgeable and eager to ensure everyone got what they needed from their visit. This definitely won’t be our last visit.

Amazing, Best part of my cruise. - Best part of my trip. My driver was amazing, I never felt rushed at any location, every stop had something great to see, so many photo opportunities. The driver was funny, knowledgeable and so polite. If I ever go back to Scotland I would definitely use this company again!

I will always book when I see it's Serca Tours. - What a fantastic day. I was the only person for the tour but Serca Tours did not cancel. They took me on, what turned out to be, a private day tour. Stef, the guide made the travel really enjoyable. He even did a special request to stop at a newly opened brewery. It was great!! As a Downton Abbey fan, seeing Inveraray Castle was a treat. It is as beautiful as expected.

Lovely experience, reasonable prices - Beautiful setting, very helpful staff. Guide book is semi-hardback & at £6 is good value as it contains 95 pages of history & photos of the castle, Argyll family & gardens. Visited with my husband & mum, we all really enjoyed the experience. Lots of info on cards in each room, all in several languages, guides are available for questions. Gift shop is varied, can’t comment on the cafe as there was a queue, but several cafes and restaurants available very close by in Inveraray village.

Private tour given - We ended up being the only ones on this tour but they didn’t cancel and our driver / guide took us everywhere we were supposed to go and did all he could to make it a good day for us. I gave it a 4 star rating because the castle and grounds weren’t as impressive as others we’d seen but I’d recommend the tour company and would be happy to use them again. Thank you!
