It is a great tour that helps US or Canada residents to either better understand North American life as lots of it came from Scotland, Ireland and England or to learn the roots of their ancestors.

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.

It was a great trip touching many of the important must see places
I suppose an inclusion to Oxford or Cambridge and maybe Canterbury would have been great and completed a circumference of England.
However it was just perfect. was a great guide. His efforts to educate us in using the internet for communication was a bit beyond me. , great driving. A very good trip

Whisky divides people. You either love its fiery warmth or detest its full-on flavour. Either way, there’s a reason why it’s Scotland’s national drink and our biggest export.
Whether you fall head over heels for our finest dram or banish it to the back of the drinks cabinet, at least you can say you’ve tried it on Scottish soil on a whisky tour from Edinburgh and seen a little of our sexy country along the way – think impressive waterfalls, a mythical glen, ancient woodlands, and a charming Highland village.
Escape the city for the day and follow in the footsteps of the world’s most famous wizard, Harry Potter. Scotland has played a huge part in the story of Harry Potter, from the scenic filming locations and inspiring architecture to the coffee shop where J.K. Rowling is said to have written the first novel.

Our passionate guides will immerse you in all the magic of Harry Potter, plus the real-life beauty and history of Scotland.
A perfect wee taster of Scotland - this tour mixes up the world’s largest horse sculptures “The Kelpies”, the seriously stunning beauty of Loch Lomond (the biggest loch or lake in the whole of Britain and inspiration to poets and painters) and The Trossachs National Park with the savage history of Stirling Castle where kings were murdered, and rebellions started. If you're after a Kelpies tour from Edinburgh that also crams in lochs, legends, and a good bit of chaos from Scotland’s past – you’re in the right place.
