5.00Even If you are not a golf fan this is a great tour! Ron, our guide gave a very interesting and educational narrative on the drive to St. Andrews. Beautiful little villages on the way there and back included a fishing village and the filming location for many scenes from Outlander. And of course, the golf course of St. Andrews is a Mecca for golf enthusiasts!
Go with Kyle!

5.00We had the best time with our tour guide, Jamie! He was so nice and so knowledgeable. He shared an abundance of information and gave us suggestions on what to see and where to go in each place. It was a tour and a history lesson combined. I wish I could give him 10 stars!
