A great way to explore the countryside

Jim was a fantastic host, answering every question along the way in the extremely clean, comfy, spacious, up to date van. The activity tickets aren't included in the price -- which is stated in the description, but it's good to remember. The van has phone charger ports but they're USB-C, not USB, so bring an adapter or appropriate cord if needed. Felt like we had enough time everywhere but didn't waste time lingering, and every destination was well worth it. Almost worth it for the transport alone after seeing some of the roads and traffic!
Day trip outside of Glasgow.

Overall this was a great tour - a good way to see a lot of things out of Glasgow without spending too much time in a car. I wish the Stirling Castle ticket and Distillery tasting ticket were just built into the cost that you paid up front though.
