Traci_D, Jul 2023
Paul was a fantastic guide! He adjusted our tour to meet needs of adults (whisky tasting) and teens (history). Loved hearing Paul tell the story of his country and his people. Our visit to Sterling Castle was cancelled due to the King's visit! But, we were still able to see the castle from the highway and Paul added the Kelpies and another castle to our tour. And we got to feed the hairy coos!!!

Hi Traci. Many thanks for your 5* review, I'm delighted that Paul looked after you and that you had such a great experience. I shall make sure that he receives a copy of this. Best regards, Alan
