Our tour was nothing short of exciting and wonderful. I loved exploring history having a well rounded, knowledgeable tour guide by my side. Lee & Craig showed a genuine caring & understanding for our wants and needs; I am extremely satisfied with how the last week went. Through ups & downs they kept us positive & motivated. I would definitely recommend this trip to future tourists, friends & family!

I didn't know what to expect, all I can say is was fantastic. Luke & Craig were exceptional they couldn't do enough for us, nothing was a problem. Luke is the best tour leader we've ever had. His knowledge about history & places were amazing. Craig's driving was exceptional & his thoughtfulness was over & above. They work SOOOOOOOO WELL together. Thank you XPat for placing them as our tour leader & driver.

Scotland's natural beauty and its historical legacy were the highlight of the trip. Many photos of the countryside were taken and will be used in creating original paintings. I appreciated as well the many occasions we had to hear history from the point of view of the Scots. An excellent balance between nature and human knowledge.
Great Trip, well thought out and planned, very professional guide and driver. We saw a lot during our trip which included historic and cultural attractions. I would highly recommend for history buffs or anyone looking for a good overview of the UK and Ireland.
You are very busy, so if you are looking for relaxation this is not the trip. You see a lot of Britain. Scotland is a beautiful country and the people are very friendly. You will see all the sights.
From its rugged sea-sprayed islands to its stately castles layered in history, Scotland awaits. Learn how the bagpipes are played and enjoy dinner at the National Piping Centre’s farm-to-table restaurant. Take a cruise on famed Loch Ness. Visit a local family on their farm and meet their sheepdogs. Marvel at the stunning scenery of the Isle of Skye. Explore the Orkney Islands’ ancient Skara Brae. Visit Dunrobin Castle. Explore the regal city of Edinburgh. Put a modern twist on Scottish cuisine during an interactive cooking demonstration. Discover a land of rolling green Highlands, friendly sheepdogs, and historic castles.
This was a fun trip, but it was very fast-paced. It gave a great overview of all that the UK and Ireland have to offer, but there wasn’t enough time to see very much of it in depth. It’s perfect for helping you pick out the places you want to see again in more detail. It involves a fair amount of riding around on the coach, but the route is consistently planned with carefully spaced “comfort” breaks. Some of the stops in small towns were given too much time, when there wasn’t much to do or see, and some of the stops could have been longer, when there was a lot to see or do. Our Tour Director was excellent, and so was our driver. Most of the hotels were very nice, with a few that were just OK. The included group dinners weren’t very exciting, but they were reasonable and tasty.

The entire trip was wonderful. I’m unable to single out just one city or experience because I enjoyed it all equally. I signed up for every optional experience and was not disappointed. I loved the ruins and the history from both our tour director and the specialists brought on in various areas.
This was an amazing trip. The itinerary gave us a fabulous view of the UK. I especially enjoyed our time in Wales. The scenery was incredible, and staying in a castle made it even more magical.
This tour provided an interesting overview of and insights into the culture/people of England and Scotland. The small group format made for a more intimate experience and the opportunity to get to know our fellow travelers. Good job.
