    Cannot recommend Lara enough - she shared her knowledge and heritage with us and we enjoyed experiencing the south mainland and all its beauty. She helped make our trip to Shetland truly unforgettable :)

    Fantastic tour. We had a great day and Lara is so knowledgeable. Lerwick is amazing. Great stops at the beach and local spots. Even got up close to Shetland ponies. One of the best tours we have ever taken. Book it now! You will have the best time. So glad we did not do a group tour through the cruise ship.
