5.00We booked this tour primarily to visit The Old Course at St Andrews. Justin, our tour guide was very responsive prior to the tour in touching base, confirming our wishes and communicating details. He picked us up promptly and we set off for St. Andrews. His extensive knowledge of Scottish history was immediately apparent, as was his passion for sharing it. We bombarded him with questions and we had a lovely time traveling to our first stop. He was always conscientious in concern for our wishes and comfort, which we appreciated very much. We toured the city, the university and the Cathedral, then broke for lunch. He gave us an opportunity to go off on our own for lunch, and we made plans to meet up in a couple of hours. We met at the Old Course, had a drink together at the Jigger Inn, took the pictures we wanted to get, then set off to explore some of the charming coastal villages. Justin was easy and pleasant to be with, and we enjoyed our day with him immensely. We hope and plan to tour with him again. Don't miss an opportunity to see Scotland with this talented and knowledgeable young man.
Justin was fabulous!

5.00We really enjoyed this one day tour! Our tour guide, Justin, was very friendly and knowledgeable. The Scottish villages were so beautiful and full of history! St. Andrew’s was definitely a highlight. Highly recommend taking this off the beaten path tour to really experience the Scottish villages! We can’t wait to be back and book the Scottish Highlands tour with Justin!

5.00We had a wonderful guide , Justin Richards. He was very responsive, reaching out 2 days before. He gave us some pub suggestions for our first night & was willing to pick us up at our hotel due to my husband’s walking limitations. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Scotland as well as the wonderful sea side towns and St Andrews. We highly recommend him & this day trip.
Excellent experience

5.00The whole trip was memorable … the towns, the food, the countryside and, as a golfer, visiting the Old Course at St. Andrews. But the absolute best was the atmosphere our guide created. Friendly, informative and extremely articulate, Justin is a walking encyclopedia of the history and geography of Scotland. We thoroughly enjoyed our day.
Great tour and guide, well worth it!

5.00This was a great tour. Justin was a knowledgeable flexible and fun guide. Because we were the only people who booked that day, he picked us up and later dropped us off where we were staying instead of us having to go and meet him. He took us to interesting places, and to a great tea shop and later a fish and chips place for lunch. When returning traffic delayed our return, he offered to wait while we changed our clothing and take us to our dinner reservation! He also gave us tips on things to do and places to eat in Edinburgh and other places we are visiting o n this trip.
