Magical and utterly unique - Christopher offers a completely unique and singular experience. There was nothing cookie cutter about our tour, it was full of facts but also carried the vibe of feeling like we were on our own private, special journey. Trust that your experience will be like Scotland, robust and magical all at once. I can't wait to return with my kids (young adults) so they too can experience the one-of-a-kind tour offered by Wanderlust Tpurs.

Fantastic private day tour - would book again. - I had friends visiting Scotland for the first time and we were looking for a private day tour outside of Edinburgh. We came across Wanderlust Tours website and decided to make the most of a cold day by going to the Cairngorms. We had a fantastic day: the views were breathtaking, it was quintessential Scotland. And the chocolate stop was a great way to start the day! We booked direct, it's just better for all involved, and Chris was always responsive and accommodating. Throughout the day, he was helpful and informative and made us all feel relaxed. The transport conditions were also very confortable - free shortbread, good seats, and we felt safe . We will definitely book with him again.
