Edinburgh Tours in October 2027

Sit back, relax and enjoy the sites, sounds and tastes of Ireland and Scotland while your driver and tour guide keep you safe and sound. See places you've heard about all your life, like Blarney Castle, the Giant's Causeway, and Loch Ness, although I was disappointed that Nessie wasn't available for a photo shot. And don't forget all the amazing people you'll meet along the way.

This was an excellent tour and our tour director Matty was fantastic . My only issue were the beds at the Delta and Craiglynne were so hard I couldn’t sleep on them. We had to get multiple toppers to survive the nights. Matty was very knowledgeable and so helpful. What they covered in 6 days was great and the optional experiences were very fitting.

Trip was very well planned and enabled a taste of many sights and areas of Scotland. Tour Director was excellent! Very knowledgeable and shared much history and many stories pertaining to each area. Would highly recommend!

This was our second tour with Trafalgar. We had a great itinerary! We saw/did quite a lot stops and views. As we traveled from Edinburgh to St. Andrew's our tour director was very informative about the history of the area. At various stops, he shared Scottish snacks like teacakes and soda with all of us! From St. Andrew's we went into the Highlands where we told to keep an eye out of some "hairy coos", aka hairy cows. We stopped at quite a few castles and historical sites along the was as we traveled through Scotland up to the Isle of Skye through Glencoe to seek out Nessie in Loch Ness, then traveled along to Loch Lomond and finishing our tour in Glasgow! The meals with and the Laird were fun and entertaining! The haggis at was very good! As was the dinner with the Laird and his Lady, from soup to dessert everything was very good! Six days flew by very quickly but thanks to our tour director and our driver, they made it a wonderful trip!! Even the weather was pretty amazing!

The tour with Back roads was the best holiday experience my wife and I have had. Peter our tour guide was very knowledgeable and provided lots of information about each destination and also was very funny, keeping everyone on the bus entertained on the way to each stop. I would highly recommend anyone considering group touring to do a back roads tour it was exceptional.

Well organised bus tour. Loved that it was a small group and that we stayed in small villages . Most of the accommodation choices were fabulous. . Our guide was brilliant, very knowledgeable and entertaining and very helpful. Our very experienced driver was also very helpful. A lot was packed into our days. Only negative was time allocated to some stops was too short and perhaps the tour could be a day or two longer. Would thoroughly recommend this style of touring.
