We had a great tour director and bus driver! Both were full of knowledge and tips and so organized! Really appreciated that quality. Nice touch with “local” treats!! The locals are so welcoming and friendly. Loved the “Be my Guest” experiences. Enjoyed the titanic venture, Belfast , isle of skye, the giant causeway and option to walk the trails, being so close to nature! Accommodations and meals were good! Would definitely travel Trafalger again.
Mary C. | Traveled in September
This was our 20th trip with Trafalgar and while we have enjoyed every one, this one was special. The scenery was magnificent, the people were lovely, our TD and our driver were exceptional. Every place we visited exceeded our expectations. Now on to number 21!
Inez En | Traveled in September
A wonderful journey through Scotland, especially the highlands. Would recommend it to anyone who enjoys getting to places that many don’t get to see. Food and accommodation were very good but be aware that older and smaller hotels in the highlands don’t have lifts. Our guide was absolutely brilliant and our driver was skilled. All porterage was taken care of.
