Booked the “folklore and legends” tour a little at the last minute and Jacqueline phoned the morning of the tour to check with us -- apparently there had been a mixup with the system and she did not receive confirmation of the tour until checking that morning. Not to worry: she told us she would happy to run the tour but would just be a little late, given the mixup (which was no problem for us).
The tour itself was super interesting, visiting some sites that would be difficult to get to otherwise (without a car of our own). Jacqueline was super friendly and really knew her stuff. She even found time to take us on a little side-tour to one of the castles (Tolquhon) when it turned out that we were making our way through the rest of the sites faster than anticipated. All in all, a great day!

I booked a day tour with Grampian Escapes & Tours and it was the highlight of my weekend to Aberdeen with friends. Jacqueline was very responsive and we designed our tour together over a couple of emails. Jacqueline was also our tour guide and was very friendly and knowledgeable. She knew all the best stoping points and recommended an excellent cafe in Braemar for lunch. Would definitely take another tour with this company when I return to Aberdeen.

Somehow I was the only person to book Taste of Scotland on this date and the tour went on! Jacqueline has an international personal background combined with a love of local history that is contagious . Special personal touches and flexibility for my interests was much appreciated and it was the highlight of my trip. I would not hesitate to go again on one of Grampian Escapes & Tours!
