    We enjoyed touring with Ewan, he showed his love for his native land in his enthusiasm as we traveled around Orkney. He was very flexible and ensured we saw areas that we were interested in (especially Churchill Barriers and Neolithic sites).

    The driver Leslie was punctual, knowledgeable and very easygoing. He drove us to some fantastic locations on the island allowing us to set the pace of the visit without rush due to some timetable. The island itself and the scenery was spectacular. I would definitely recommend this trip as a way of getting around.

  • Wonderful tour!

    This tour is absolutely worth it. Leslie did a great job of showing us around and going to all the places of interest to us. He was very knowledgable and answered all our questions. He took us to a scenic area so we could take pictures, and the view was absolutely stunning. We had lunch at a nice cafe that he knew about, away from the tourists. He offered to take us up to the top of a hill to get panoramic photos of the island, even though we had gone over time at that point. He made sure we have the best experience possible. Thank you, Leslie!

    Had a great day touring the Orkney Islands. Chris was humorous and knowledgable about the Islands and the roll the Islands played in WWII. Loved visiting the standing stones and hearing the history and thoughts of how they came to be there. The Italian Chapel is so quaint. What great artists to transform a Quonset hut into a beautiful chapel. Dress appropriately, we had wind, rain, sun and lots of walking!

  • Wonderful! Tour
