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.

Overview of your Glasgow tour

St Andrews is the "Home of Golf" and a must see for any golf enthusiast. On this tour you will step into the mecca of the golfing world. From the Royal and Ancient clubhouse to the Swilken Bridge you can walk in the footsteps of the great and the good. At the Links Clubhouse you can enjoy majestic panoramic views of the Old Course, the New Course and the Jubilee Course. If watching is not enough you can enjoy 18 holes at the challenging Himalayas Putting green. This fun experience will allow you to boast that you have played 18 holes at St Andrews. After immersing yourself in all that is golf you can choose to head out of St Andrews to the lovely little village of Anstruther where you will be able to enjoy award winning fish and chips or choose to jump even deeper into the golfing experience and stay in St Andrews to have lunch at the Tom Morris restaurant followed by a visit to the golf museum.

David Cornwallis provided another excellent tour as he took our small group of 6 to Edinburgh and Saint Andrews. Though the weather prevented us from getting out on the mini golf 18 holes, David still helped us get our obligatory pictures on the bridge on the 18th hole as well as get into the Old Course shops. David provided great intellect into the history of Edinburgh as we drove through town. Would definitely recommend David for any tour you may be looking into.

Wonderful Tour! A+ David was punctual, gracious, laid back, informative, and took us to many off the beaten path locations that otherwise would have been missed on commercial tours. It was a true "tour by local" and highly recommend to others for a first class experience. David tailored the tour to family's desire and wishes, and added his own ideas and thorough knowledge of St. Andrews, Faulkland, Glascow, and surrounding areas to really make our time special. Even gave some of Scotland local desserts.

We had a wonderful day with David in St Andrews, Falkland (not to be missed) and several fishing villages. Ate delicious fish & chips and due to the good weather (thank you Lord) loved the scenery. David's an excellent driver and made fun stops along the way. This was our second tour with David and I will recommend him to friends. This particular itinerary is especially low stress and delightful

Your Glasgow tour itinerary

- Drive from Glasgow to St Andrews (Drive time is around 2 hours and a bit longer from Greenock for cruise visits) - After a brief overview of the main courses and highlights of the area, take a walk out to the course and get your picture on the famous Swilken Bridge and have some time to explore the many golf shops in the area. - Either head out to a local fishing village for some award winning fish and chips or challenge the other members of your group to 18 holes at the Himalayas Putting Green or enjoy some lunch at the Tom Morris Restaurant - Return to your pick up point. You will have 4 hours in the area of the golf courses but if you want to extend your time just ask for an extended tour. This is a suggested itinerary, let me know what you would like to see and do and I will customize the tour accordingly.
