Hi my name is Dave and like yourself I have a passion for travel. I love to explore and discover the hidden gems that you can find anywhere in the world but sometimes it can take time to find them. That is where a private tour with a knowledgeable local guide stands out. Come with me and I will take you on a voyage of adventure and discovery as we explore the hidden secrets of my beautiful country and its remarkable history. My adventures are suitable for all and can be modified to meet the needs of any group from high activity thrill seekers to the more sedate scenic explorers. Don't worry, even our low activity tours will allow you to explore and discover some hidden gems. As an avid traveller I have experienced many tours and adventures and as such I have a good understanding of what makes a tour stand out. I have used this knowledge and experience in the design all of my tours to provide a fantastic experience for my guests. It is true that adventure and discovery can still be carried out in luxury and comfort and that is my main focus. I look forward to meeting you and your group as we embark on another adventure which has been modified to provide the unique experience you are looking for during your short visit to my incredible country. Now it is time to see Scotland your way. Dave C I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside the historic monuments, I will however accompany you and give you my insights where applicable.

Scotland is renowned for its majestic beauty and scenery. On this predominantly sight seeing tour I will take you to some of my favourite locations with the most picturesque scenery which takes my breath away each and every time I visit. We will visit quaint little villages with churchyards dating back over 1000 years. We will pass by mountains and lochs that will transport you to the magical lands of The Hobbit but with no magic rings and burning lava. There will be plenty of opportunity to get some fantastic photographs of scenery that you will never forget. Along the way I will invite you to try a sample of Scottish hospitality and maybe test your knowledge a little. There are several villages and towns we will pass through allowing you to pick up any souvenirs you may require. As the day comes to an end we will return via Stirling where you will learn a little more about Scotland's struggles for independence and the heroes who so famously stood up for our freedom.
David was an excellent guide taking a tour of the Scottish countryside. After the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh, it was nice to get out the of the city and take in the gorgeous scenery. In addition to the listed tour, we wanted to go to the Falkirk Wheel -- don't miss it, it's extraordinary! We had a great time.
David is an incredible guide and driver. His knowledge of Scottish history is amazing. He is full of events and dates that are even hard to find in history books. He made our drive go quickly and kept us well informed on a wide variety of subjects. We highly recommend David and plan to use him again when we return to Scotland
David gave us a completely custom and lovely tour of the local area surrounding our hotel. At each stop, he had snacks and whisky ready to go along with history - what could be better? Thank you for an amazing experience - we can't wait to come back to scotland.
We had the most amazing time on our tour with David! He worked with me on putting together an itinerary that checked everything I wanted to do. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and had great stories. My three kids (13, 11, 7) thought he was fantastic. (The boys say Hi, David!!!) He had water, snacks and Irn Bru, which won my kids over. I can't recommend David enough. Thanks for such a wonderful day!
David was friendly and very accommodating to our requests and made sure we saw what we wanted. He gives great commentary and has insight and historical knowledge. We learned about Scotland's history, food and landscape. David made us feel welcome.
David is knowledgeable, accommodating and fun.
