Customer Reviews
For a first time trip to Scotland, this was an excellent tour for me to take. It was quite a busy trip but we saw many things during these 7 days. I would highly recommend. Castles, yes.
The trip was fantastic! You did not have to think about anything regarding where, when and how to see things. The trip was planned with all the details. Thank you.
The trip was wonderful. I particularly want to single out the driver and the tour guide for a terrific job from start to finish!
We have made many happy memories over the 46 years of marriage, but the Best of Scotland was hands down the most comprehensive, incredible vacations we have ever taken together. Each destination, meal and experience exceeded our expectations. and made our trip seamless and wove together a magical time of joy and discovery in Scotland.
It was fantastic! Well-designed and very well-led. Days were full of sights with depth at each location.
