It was amazing, Linda was fascinating and funny and is a true wealth of knowledge. Highly recommend her tours. Determined to go on all her other tours now, as if they are only half as good as this one they'll still be well worth it

We moved to Elgin 10 yrs ago and booked the Tour to find out more about its history. The Tour of the Closes was a good choice. We not only got to know some of the historical background but also a few creepy stories. Lynda was brilliant showing us everything that seems hidden or missed when just walking on your own. She is such a good storyteller. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. We had a lovely day
