    Wonderful!

    Emma_R, Oct 2025
    I did a different tour with the same company last year, and was so impressed with last year’s, I knew we had to take another tour with this company again this year! Our guide, Stuart, was absolutely wonderful! He catered to all our interest and even made time for additional stops for us. Anytime we had a question he could not answer, he was quick to find someone who could answer all our questions about the castles. We are already planning our next trip back to Scotland, and without a doubt, we will be taking another tour with TRIPorganizer! This company is marvelous and I would recommend to anyone coming to Scotland!

    Best tour I've been. Stuart is an amazing guide, likes to chat and tell us all about Scotland. We'll worth the price. Stuart went out of his way to acomodate us. The views are amazing.

    top notch

    What an amazing day we had with Stuart! A great drive with great guide who gave us so much great information both about the places we visited and Scotland/its culture as a whole. Flexible when we needed it and amenable. The castles were amazing and the amount we learned was vast. A full day of adventure! can't wait to return

    Alnwick and Bamburg are must see. Our favorites in England!

    andrea_b, Jun 2024
    Alnwick was wonderful. Probably the most beautiful staterooms I’ve ever seen and more unicorns than you can count! Bamburg had the most amazing views. Holy Island was fine but crowded. We didn’t make it to the 2 towns.

    Response from Host, Jun 2024

    Dear Andrea, Thank you for sharing your experience and providing feedback on your recent tour. We're delighted to hear that you found Alnwick to be wonderful and that you enjoyed the amazing views at Bamburgh Castle. We apologise for the crowds at Holy Island and understand how that might have affected your visit. It's unfortunate how crowded popular sites can get during summer. Your feedback is invaluable to us as we strive to improve our tours continuously. Thank you once again for choosing TRIPorganiser. Best regards, Beryl

    Lovely Day Trip to an Area Rich in History

    Stephen_P, May 2024
    A lovely and relaxed day trip in a beautiful and historically rich area. Our driver/guide Sean was knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating and enabled us to prioritize the areas of most interest to us. We were not able to cover all of the locations listed on the website itinerary, but this was offset by the flexibility to see the main sites in more detail.

    Response from Host, May 2024

    Dear Stephen, Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're delighted to hear that you had a lovely and relaxed day trip with Sean. It's wonderful to know that Sean's knowledge, friendliness, and accommodating nature contributed to making your day special.

If you have any future travel plans or wish to explore more of Scotland, please don't hesitate to reach out. We would love to see you again. Best regards, Beryl
