I liked the sheep dogs. Our tour guides stories and history of Scotland.
Really enjoyed visiting the small towns and exploring a little, then finding a
local place to eat. Always found a places with great food. Edinburgh was a fun city.
Tour guide was fantastic and knowledgeable on everything from the history of where we were, to places to eat, to myths, legends and local stories. The driver was phenomenal and I have motion sickness which was never an issue with him behind the wheel. Would recommend to anyone who like me, wants a trip where they can just truly relax and enjoy knowing everything will go smoothly.
