We had an amazing day with Ross! Fantastic conversations on history, culture, local norms. Loved the generous energy and spirit of the day - food, whiskey, chocolate and coos! Highly recommend!

Ross was fantastic! His tour offered something for everyone in our family. Extremely personable and a fountain of information on the history of Scotland, including assorted myths and stories. Very comfortable van for travel during the full day tour. Ross was always attentive to our personal needs/preferences and was able to show us a variety of sites in a relaxed, non-rushed manner. Highly recommend Ross for a real taste of Scotland!

Wonderful tour. Ross is an absolutely outstanding tour guide. He is personable; included each member of our family in the conversations; provided insightful history and commentary on the areas that we toured; was flexible in terms of our interests in seeing a particular set of sites. He arrived on time, and packed a wealth of information, sites, eating places and culture into the busy day while patiently allowing us to focus on our interests along the way. We give him our highest possible recommendation.

Spectacular tour with our guide Ross!! He was friendly, accommodating, and went over and above our expectations! We experienced a real overview of Scotland through the eyes of a local. We definitely fell in love with this special country. Ross was always aware of time so we would return to the trip as needed. We highly recommend this tour!!
