Highlights
Edinburgh: A hush descends and eyes turn to the castle. The skirl of the pipes rises and drums crack the night air as a tide of tunics and tartan flood from the drawbridge. For a limited time in August, witness the incredible spectacle of The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.
Edinburgh: Explore Edinburgh Castle with your Local Expert to see the Scottish Crown Jewels and the Mons Meg up close.
Edinburgh: Explore the city with your Local Expert as you travel along Princes Street to see the Scott Memorial, the neoclassical Adam facades of New Town and the official Scottish residence of the King, Palace of Holyroodhouse.
St. Andrews: Visit the university town where the famous beach scene from 'Chariots of Fire' was filmed and see the golf course where the sport was created.
Inverness: See the River Ness, Inverness Castle and beautiful scenery as you explore the history of this Highland city.

Well paced. Great adventures and really amazing scenery
It was absolutely amazing however I would have preferred to pay more and have longer stops. I’m not complaining just saying. How Director was exceptional and so was the driver (I think ) can’t fault either of them and give them a 10+
Fabulous trip which takes in the best of Scotland. Lots of time spent in the Highlands which is such a plus.
Could include visit to Fairy Glen, just to have a break from all the fighting that has gone on in Scotland. That would be appreciated.
Nothing everything was 👌
Itinerary was great the guide was great, but there were too many people on the tour and they were too old and slow
I enjoyed all aspects of the journey. The team leader was excellent
Lovely tour around the country roads of Scotland with Taib. Good information given at different destinations, however there were some places eg...castles, landmarks in between that we passed and would have liked to have had a mention of them, even if not stopping at them. Hotels comfortable, included dining became a little monotonous, same choices etc (but understand catering for a group ...) Overall enjoyable.
The tour took us to all of our ‘bucket list’ places we wanted to visit. A great tour
Leave as is Had a fantastic tour director and Driver
