Overview of your Kirkwall tour:

I look forward to delivering this tour to travellers as a Native Orcadian, I have a lifetime of knowledge to make each tour as immersive as possible. I really do enjoy questions, and if any sites that are not listed in this tour are of interest to you, please just let me know via the chat or on the day and I will do my best to accommodate the request, I'm very flexible and understand that something may come to mind at last minute. This as well as all of my tours are fully customizable to visitors, and time extensions (although at extra cost) are always possible. I only take one tour per day to enable me to be the most accommodating I can be to your needs. On this particular tour, we'll enjoy breathtaking views, see ancient monuments and see as much of the island as possible in the time frame all hosted by a Native Islander. Please note this tour does NOT include site tickets to The Broch of Gurness or Stromness Museum but these can both be bought on the day.

I currently use a midsize SUV for my tours but also drive a 4x4 estate car, both have a capacity of 4 mid sized adults or 3 with extra space. These offer more room than most minibus platform vehicles.

  • Other: I will have light waterproof jackets for use, available to all visitors free of charge.
  • Private Guide
  • Private Transportation
What's extra
  • Other: Personal expenses. Tickets to private sites are not included but are easily booked online, alternatively these can be bought on the day in cash and I would suggest GBP£100 would be more than enough to cover for this entries and lunch.
