    Never again 😊
    Awful experience. I booked a ghost in advance and 2 hrs before the tour they sent me a WhatsApp (very unprofessional) saying that the tour was cancelled because they didn't reach the minimum number. Then they advise another tour the day after which is been cancelled again the same day of the tour. When I went to their office to have an explanation the staff at the front desk did welcome me in a very unpleasant way, not offering any solutions. Thanks Sara Nieves and Echeday for the awful experience 😊

    Trip to Lochness with our Italian Guide
    One day trip to Lochness was excellent. Our guide Ayrton was excellent with detailed explanations throughout the whole journey.

    Tour not interesting
    Tour in places of little interest that absolutely do not justify too many hours spent on the bus. On the other hand, the guide in Italian was exceptional, who was able to speak for at least nine hours, always being interesting. Compliments!

    Very interesting experience
    We took this tour on the last day of our Edinburgh holiday. We thought we knew the old city well enough, but with Ayrton we discovered hidden corners and interesting legends. With him it is impossible for history to be boring. He's a person prepared, kind, friendly and very available. Thanks Scotland Tour and thanks Ayrton.

    OUTSTANDING
    Me and my girlfriend booked the Highlands tour for December. First of all we want to say thank you to Brian Smith, our amazing guide. Simply wonderful. The tour was (as Brian would say) OUTSTANDING. He will entertain you with very curious stories about Scotland’s history and heroes of this amazing land. Least but not last, you have to listen the traditional Scottish’s music played by Brian. Well done guys!

    Fabulous tour
    We went on the tour to the Highlands and our guide was Michael. It was a great day! He interspersed history with humor and kept us all interested. He gave us time to explore on our own as well as guide us through the sites. We were very lucky to have had him as a tour guide.

    Just amazing
    Brian smith was my tour guide and I can’t praise him enough, knowledgable and funny and did everything he could to enhance everyone’s experience. Lovely scenery, great story’s and loads of little stops you’d never expect. Worth every penny and more. I wish I could redo today- one of the best tours I’ve ever been on Just be prepared to sing 500 miles… like I mean a lot 🤣 Shannon 28/10

    Our tours with Scozia Tour
    We spent few days in Edinburgh during last New Year's eve and we joint few tours organised by Scozia Tour. We went to the Highlands and Glasgow tour, then we joint the Ghosts tour in the evening and at the end we went to the Edinburgh's castle. All three tours were perfectly organised and our guides, Cristina and Ayrton, simply brilliant ! We strongly recommend this organisation, serious people and always a fun to spend some hours with them. Ciao, Stefano

    Fantastic tour through english castles!
    We did the "Harry Potter" tour in italian. The guide was really good and explained us, since the first hours of the tour, everything about the history and curiosities of the different places. Once we arrived in the different castles, we had the possibility to visit and take also pictures of them. The longest stop was at Alnwick Castle( where some of the scenes of Harry Potter and Downton Abbey were set). Before entering the castle the guide explained us the entire history of that castle without cutting any detail. That one was the last castle and during the way back to Edinburgh we stopped in a small village to see a castle destroyed by Henry the VIII. The journey was really comfortable and we enjoyed really much this tour

    REally helpful and cheap tours
    I found this tour operator surfing the web, and I tried it my first time 3 years ago, and in february of this year I used their services again. They are very nice and helpful for whom doesnt understand well the english language... If I will go again in Edinburgh I will ask their help again, because I still have some wonderful places to see...

We want to compliment the preparation that the ScotlandTour guys have. On this trip we took two trips with them. We had Giacomo and Valentina as guides and they were really good and attentive in telling us with dedication what we visited and much more.
We strongly recommend, if you want to gain more knowledge of Scotland, to book visits with ScotlandTour!

Recommendation to all this tour that takes you to discover wonderful castles. Both during the visit to the castles and during the.bus trip our Guide Serena was fantastic: she gave us a lot of useful information, super competent made us discover the history of.Scotland and cheered us up with funny anecdotes without ever making us bored. At the end of the tour he also provided us with a lot of useful information and tips for our stay in Edinburgh. For those coming to Scotland definitely not to be missed!

Good morning ,
My husband and I did the tour with Scozia tour . Unfortunately the tour was a deception to say the least. This was our 4 th tour and it was by far the most unorganized and disappointing. The bus came late while we rush to be there 15 min . The dunnottar castle was cancel due to the weather which I completely I understand. However what I don’t understand, is why bring us to DUNDEES For 45 min when everything was close ….
Then again another 1 hr in stone heaven when everything there was close as well . We had to eat our lunch outside in the cold . No one told us that the bus would be divided into 2 languages..
the music in the bus was very annoying when songs are played several times and not even Scottish music ( like we are in Scotland ) and the end of the trip when we are all tired they stopped at the bridge for a 30 min pic .. I’m guessing they just wanted to make it 10 hrs even if it wasn’t fun. The tour guide are very serious . Wish we had a better experience.. I’m mad because I could have just rented a car and did it on my own.
Glamis castle was beautiful so was the outside of The dunnottar castle ( worth visiting)

The tour was shared between Spaniards and Italians. The bus was small and very narrow. He moved a lot. Not suitable for disabled people. The Spanish Guide (Sandra) went from one topic to another. We were wearing headphones to listen to the Guide but if the neighbors don't shut up you don't hear anything. The unforgettable castles but the trip, a disaster.
