My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the St. Andrews Must-Sees walking tour with Fiona. We knew very little about St. Andrews until this tour today. The information Fiona shared and the stories she told were presented incredibly well. We loved seeing the Old Golf Course, the University areas, the castle and the old cathedral. We've done a lot of walking tours in many locations worldwide, and this was one of our favorites. Highly recommend!

Ken was an excellent tour guide, need to both navigate a crowded city and a large group of fellow tourists. Despite these challenges, he kept us moving along without it feeling rushed. Ken was quite knowledgeable and had a nice affable persona. We covered a lot of ground with out losing "stragglers", came upon on an unexpected wedding during one of the stops & took full advantage of an exceptionally beautiful day. Would not hesitate to recommend Ken on a future tour.

A wonderful tour through St. Andrew’s. I only had a day here and this was the perfect way to spend it. I felt like it was paced well and I leaned a lot. The guide was so friendly and the small group made it more welcoming as a solo.
