Not worth the price...

magaccounting, May 2025

Having a private tour is always more expensive. However, as a solo traveler, I choose to do it because of convenience. I get to see more and get to do pretty much what I choose. This tour, though, was not worth the price paid. I had to pay my own admission everywhere. It was not much, but it is a matter of principal. If I am charged that much, tickets should be included. In addition, not much was explained. I was dropped off to explore on my own. Honestly, next time it will be much cheaper to just hire a car for a day and do what I choose.

Response from Host, May 2025

Thank-you for taking the time to leave a review. Our tours are all carried out in Business Class vehicles and it's important to us that we maintain high standards and our tour prices and explanatory notes do stipulate that entry to any place we visit is not included in the price. There are a few reasons for this but the primary reasons are that each of our tours are private, and we aim to do what our guests want to do on the advertised tour you are on. IE, our guests are not railroaded to suit other people's time-table, and If we pre-purchase tickets (which invariably come with a time-slot), then we must be there at that time. Many of our guests prefer the freedom to choose how long they remain at each place, so they can enjoy more of what they love, and a little less time at the places they've seen enough of. Another reason is that poor weather can result in some guests having to cancel tours or ask to change the itinerary as the weather on that day isn't suitable for what they had in mind. We don't think it's fair that our guests should take a chance on having to pay for tickets (which would be reflected in the tour price) that for one reason or another have to be cancelled due to something they have no control over, such as the weather. Our guides always offer to enter places of significance with our guests. Some places we visit do not welcome guides who are not directly employed at the venue, however our guides can still accompany our guests and share relevant information on the places you visit, on a more discreet one to one fashion. Some of our guests, like yourself, when offered the choice of being accompanied often prefer to use venue provided audio guides and go at their own pace and take more time at particular places of interest, and that is absolutely fine too. Once again, we are sorry that you felt that entry should be included, however would stipulate again that we clearly state that entry, food etc is not included in the price, but we do provide fresh bottles of water/refreshments as part of our service, and hope you understand that booking a tour with Business Class standard vehicles has to be relevantly priced so we can maintain our high standards for all our guests.

Wonderful tour of Glasgow!

Kayla_M, Feb 2025

Our tour guide, Alistair, was absolutely wonderful! He made the tour very personable, shared tons of stories with us, and truly made Glasgow and the surrounding areas feel like a second home. To top it all off we had beautiful weather which truly made it a dream tour! If you are looking to truly experience and not just see Glasgow, this is the tour for you!

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thank-you so much for your kind words. It really means the world knowing that our guests have a great time with us as we show you a little piece of the place we call home...We hope you come back to Scotland soon and look us up so that we can share a little bit more with you...Take care for now

Castles and so much more

Pam_H, Jun 2024

Our guide, Alistair, tailored our experience to our interests. We are not Outlander fans so he added some other experiences. We saw Castles, a town where Outlander was filmed, The Kelpies, a beautiful Cathederal and had lunch at a charming place where everything is made in house. It was a great day. Highly recommend booking this tour for a personalized experience! Alistair is the perfect guide to provide you with information about everything you will see!!

Great tour! The stops were absolutely gorgeous, and our driver Alastair could not have been more courteous & kind… we really enjoyed the day with him!

Great Castle/Palace Tour

Michael_S, May 2022

Our tour was customized to what we wanted to see. Jordan was flexible and courteous. He picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel and was timely. He recommended a great place to eat when we were hungry and when I left my bag at the restaurant he went back to pick it up while we got tickets for our next castle visit. Overall great experience and would highly recommend.
