Great day out!! - We took our older kids on this tour from Edinburgh. We had such a great time and David was very knowledgeable and funny throughout the tour! There was so much beauty and things to see. the kids didn't get to try some of the whiskey (even though they are technically legal here ^^). We had some extra time and David showed us some extra places, that were not on the planned itinerary, which felt very special. A highlight for our holiday

Perfect day! - We did a two-day tour and from the outset we were very pleased with Martin's communication. We wanted something a bit different for the second day, and Martin suggested this tour of Scone Palace and Hermitage, and I must say he was spot on. We loved the palace and learning about the stone of destiny, and walking among the huge pine trees and waterfall at the Hermitage. Perfect day!

Not to good - Tour was just ok for 700.00. Scone was a nice visit but the rest of it was average The driver was not the local Scottish guide that we were hoping for and he was often difficult to understand. The car was way too small and I had difficulty getting in and out, we were dropped for lunch at a place that wasn’t much more than a diner. The driver was very cordial and accommodating but for 700 US dollars the tour was not even close to worth it. I definitely would not recommend this tour.
